If you only buy one Greek cookbook, I can thoroughly recommend “The Olive & the Caper: Adventures in Greek Cooking”, By Susanna Hoffman. I love it for several reasons; I love her abiding passion for Greece & Greek cuisine. She is a scholar of Greece who has spent huge amounts of time learning how to cook from the many old women who carry Greek cooking in their soul. I also love all the little stories, that accompany many of the recipes, about Greece & about her cooking companions. Lastly there are very few glossy photos of food. They don’t really add to the book, & for me, these photos are a waste of space.

It is available as a hard cover or paperback book.

No one captures the spirit and soul of a place quite like Tessa Kiros, the best-selling author of Falling Cloudberries and Apples for Jam. Who better than Tessa to take readers on a colorful and magical journey into the kitchens of her friends and family in Greece.
Food, culture, celebration, and memory are inexorably tied together inside Tessa Kiros’s Food from Many Greek Kitchens. As the follow-up to her best-selling Venezia and Falling CloudberriesFood from Many Greek Kitchens explores Kiros’s Greek-Cypriot heritage and takes readers on a colorful journey into the Greek kitchens of her friends and family as she catalogs the traditional foods for fasting, festivals, and feast days.
Recipes like Vassilopitta New Year Wish Cake, Lamb in a Flowerpot with Dill and Red Wine, Yamopilafo Wedding Rice, and Easter Soup are accompanied by short introductions that explain each dish’s cultural significance. In addition, lavish full-color photographs take readers on a tour from the local Mediterranean fishmongers and markets into Greek family homes and kitchens to experience the best in authentic Greek cooking.
