8 authentic Greek recipes

Olive oil, lemon, oregano, feta, yogurt, the Cretan diet

Greek cuisine is anchored in the Cretan diet — generous pours of extra-virgin olive oil, bright lemon, wild oregano, crumbled feta, and thick strained yogurt form the pantry backbone. Along the Aegean coast, grilled fish and octopus share the table with slow-braised lamb from the mainland mountains. Mezze spreads invite communal grazing, while filo pastry traditions live on in spinach-and-cheese spanakopita and honey-drenched baklava. Fasting recipes (nistisima) crafted for Lent and Orthodox feast days show remarkable restraint and creativity. From a simple horiatiki salad to an Easter spit-roast, Greek cooking is inseparable from landscape, faith, and unhurried hospitality.
