Cato's recipe uses cumin, but it can overpower the herbs, so it is listed as optional below.

Be that as it may, the reader can jump right into the chapter on Regions which is a fine overview although perfunctory. If one criticism can be made—and it can be made against nearly all Greek food writers except one, and it is understandable—there is a diminution of the important influence of the Ottoman Turks, who occupied Greece for 500 years, on contemporary Greek cooking. Greek food writers will start their histories of Greek food with the ancient Greeks, properly enough, and then gloss over the 800 years of Venetian, Catalan, Arab, and Ottoman Turk influence during the Middle Ages. To her credit Alexiadou is not as guilty of this omission as others have been, and one should remember the book’s subtitle: The Cookbook.

Sometimes people ask me, wasn’t it difficult talking to people about food in this really challenging circumstance? No, of course it wasn’t, it was really fun! In [some places], people live to eat and the concept of food is about a broader concept of community. That’s wonderful. Food is like a universal language that enables you to communicate feelings of empathy, of connection, of hope, of love. At first I thought Vefa Alexiandou used a ghost writer for this encyclopedic tome, given her warm & down to earth persona on Greek TV programs, then in reading through it I found she has a chemistry degree , which explains the concise & accurate recipes & analytical overview of the history of Greek cuisine. Much like Child’s analytical approach to French cooking; this is an overview of the food & history of a nation.

Who Is It For? This is perfect for home cooks seeking to improve their diets for an overall healthy life. Process oriented, the recipes are appropriate for beginner to intermediate cooks. Interestingly, Christos is neither a celebrity chef nor food writer. He is a Greek Canadian filmmaker who wrote this Greek cookbook as a tribute to his mother.

Leave it out for another - but tasty - dish entirely;)
