Highlights

Learn to make hand-made phyllo pies in a local Athenian home. Christina is passionate about baking traditional phyllo pies using a technique she first learned from her grandmother. After attending culinary school, Christina perfected the phyllo technique by working in a local bakery where she expertly created a wide variety of phyllo pies from scratch. Christina will teach you to make phyllo dough in her kitchen and how to construct a flaky, savory pie. After your pie has baked you will sit at Christina's table and share a meal of her inventive, seasonal Greek dishes. 


This experience offers a one-of-a-kind opportunity to learn to cook one of Greece's best known dishes with a local expert. You will get a real glimpse in to modern Greek life and learn about the culinary traditions that have been passed down through generations of home-cooks.

Itinerary

  • Athens

    This is a unique opportunity to visit the home of a local and explore traditional culture and cuisine. Learn to prepare authentic Greek phyllo dough from scratch in Christina's kitchen in this Athens cooking class. She will teach you to make the ubiquitous flaky Greek dough - starting with flour and water! - and together you will prepare a traditional pie. She will teach you, step by step, how to make the pie filling using seasonal ingredients like wild spinach and other greens and a variety of fresh cheeses (you might mix the filling in the sink since it is her biggest receptacle!). You mix the dough, learn to roll it into paper-thin sheets on her dining table, and layer the pie with the filling. She will show you how to carefully lay the delicate sheets of phyllo in the pan, which results in a light, crispy pie. Christina will share printed recipes with you so you can recreate the dishes at home. You can expect the cooking portion of your experience to last about 90 minutes before you sit down to enjoy the meal you helped to prepare.
