What’s it about? Greek Odysea: Flavours of Greece from Pantry to Plate celebrates the soulful simplicity of Greek cooking, bringing together more than 70 recipes inspired by the country’s much-loved pantry ingredients. Olive oil, feta, honey, tomatoes, yoghurt and more take centre stage in dishes that are generous, seasonal and designed for everyday cooking, making it easy to bring the flavours of Greece to your own table.
Organised around the rhythms of Greek dining, this book features chapters on Seasonal Salads & Small Plates, Bakes & One-Pan Dishes, Fresh Feasts & Sharing Food, Herby Rice & Pulse Dishes, and Sweet Ends & Pantry Treats. Alongside recipes, you’ll find striking travel photography from across mainland Greece and the islands, as well as personal stories from Odysea founder Panayis Manuelides, memories from Yiayia Vali’s kitchen and insights into the small-scale producers behind the ingredients.
