Greek cuisine is famous for its impressively healthy products and the amazing taste of its food and wines. The Greeks love eating out, sharing food with friends and enjoying the tasty ingredients their land and sea provide. The combination of traditional cooking and foreign influences has produced a vast range of restaurant types but it is not uncommon to find some of the best food in the most unexpected, off-the-beaten-track places.
Starting off with some kind of appetizers, Tzatziki – a Greek sauce made from yogurt, cucumbers, garlic, herbs and spices such as parsley and mint – is the best compliment to grilled meats and vegetables as well as Melitzanosalata which is a delicious eggplant dip made of roasted eggplants mixed in with garlic, fresh parsley, lemon juice and olive oil. This classic Greek dip is incredibly versatile and it is often elevated with additional ingredients such as groundnuts, cheese, different vegetables and a variety of fresh herbs and spices. Both of these are served with warm pita bread triangles or crusty bread.
The Greeks cook eggplants in many ways: they are the main ingredient in Moussaka, a traditional greek dish made of ground lamb and eggplants layered with a tomato lamb meat sauce and topped with Bechamel sauce. The lamb is sometimes replaced with beef, while the eggplants might be replaces with zucchini or potatoes. Pastitsio is a delicious variation on the lasagna that is often served as the primo piatto (first course) during a family Sunday lunch. It combines thick sheets of pasta, thick macaroni, tomato sauce seasoned with salt, pepper, sugar, grated cheese, sliced hard-boiled eggs, ham, salami, and meat topped with grated cheese, pepper, and breadcrumbs.
Greek yogurt is an addition to every meal: served with stewed and fried vegetables, meatballs, and grilled meats. It is used as a sauce, baked over chicken and certain beef dishes until it sets like béchamel. It is also enjoyed as dessert: it can be tasted plain or in lieu of cream in desserts like roasted caramelized quince, or as a pudding with honey and walnuts, matched with honey or spoon sweets, yogurt is divine.
Since ancient Greek times Corfu has been famous for its wines and today it still continues to produce excellent wine varieties such as Kakotrighi, a white wine with a subtle and lasting fragrance. and Skopelitico – one of the best red wine variety, rich in fruit flavors.
