lovely recipes that are entirely possible to recreate with little to no expertise needed. the saffron rice is a simple star in our household. bonus points for looking beautiful on my kitchen bookshelf… form and function!

The recipes were refreshingly easy, yet delivered high flavor. I really enjoyed cooking from this book.

visually beautiful cookbook with focus on farm to table, tons of veggies, and greek food. most of the recipes are fairly simple and straight-forward.
