If you have been to Greece (or if you are Greek), then you know why people are so enamored with the flavors of that country’s cuisine, which are just wonderfully lively, vibrant, and clean.
Olive oil is the basis of almost everything, typical of Mediterranean cooking, joining other common ingredients like olives, lemon, and honey. Some others are herbs such as oregano, dill, and mint; fresh produce including tomatoes, cucumbers, and garlic; and dairy often in the form of yogurt and cheeses, such as feta. Typical proteins are lamb and lots of seafood.
