About Greek cooking
What defines Greek cooking?
Greek cooking is olive-oil cooking — used in quantity, as an ingredient rather than a medium — layered with lemon, oregano and garlic and finished with sheep- or goat-milk cheese. The lemon-and-oil emulsion latholemono dresses grilled fish and meat; avgolemono, egg beaten with lemon, thickens soups and sauces without cream. Vegetables braised soft in oil (the ladera dishes) are a category of their own, and the meze table means many small plates rather than one main. Our 1,121 Greek recipes cover everything from quick weeknight meals to classic dishes worth learning end-to-end.
What are common Greek pantry staples?
Extra-virgin olive oil, lemons, dried Greek oregano, garlic, feta, Greek yogurt, kalamata olives, phyllo, orzo and short pasta, dried chickpeas and gigantes beans, red wine vinegar, dill and flat-leaf parsley. Oil, lemon, oregano and feta will get you through most of the repertoire.
