Athens : food, stories, love : a cookbook / Diane Kochilas ; photography by Thomas Gravanis and Yiannis Sikianakis.
"Diane has lived in Athens for thirty years and has been witness to the enormous social and culinary changes all around her. To navigate the city's gastronomic scene today is to discover a city overflowing with new creative energy in its kitchens and myriad of international ingredients in its markets. These new global influences on the Athenian table live side by side with Greece's great gastronomic traditions. Souvlaki, hand pies, and the classic pasta casserole pastitsio are included here along with Athenian 'fancy' dishes like noua, a classic Athenian pot roast, and chicken Milanese, combining chicken, rice, and a velvety cream sauce. Giving readers a taste of the ways in which the culinary traditions of other countries are shaping the way Athens eats today, Diane offers a recipe for a French-influenced cross between a croissant and spanakopita, shares an Italian twist on a Greek classic with shrimp saganaki risotto, updates a Greek bean dish with a Grec-Mex twist on gigantes, and much more"-- Provided by publisher.
