| Publisher Description: KUKLA'S KOUZINA: A Gourmet Journey Greek Island Style is the first cookbook series featuring an exclusive collection of never-before-published recipes from Karpathos-the second largest island of the Dodecanese chain, nestled between its more renowned neighbors Crete and Rhodes. From the unspoiled mountain village of Olympos, to the inland farming town of Volada, to the age-old fishing port of Finiki, the island is at the core of these recipes-passed down orally, some thousands of years old-that remain true to their heritage, with an originality that sets them apart from standard Greek cuisine, while teaching children the importance of culture and traditions through food. This is an edible trip worth tasting This collection of recipes was inspired by this southern Greek island and perfected by a woman with culinary vision, our mom, Mary, who was called "Kukla" (doll) by all who adored her (and her cooking). Our "kouzina" (kitchen) was where the magic unfolded, and now we share it with you in the second of this cookbook series, SPREADS & DIPS. If you're a home cook, from amateur to ambitious, who's been looking for a Greek cookbook that takes the mystery out of this once-complicated cuisine, join us in our Karpathian kouzina, where history meets perfection. SPREADS & DIPS features over 10 recipes that explore the diversity of flavors and culture that have intertwined to form Kukla's Karpathian-style appetizers, including: Eggplant-Salad Spread (Melitzanosalata), Warm Artichoke-Salad Spread (Zesti Aginarosalata), and Zesty Feta Dip (Tyrokafteri ). Now step into our kouzina and learn firsthand about what makes our cuisine so different from that in the other corners of Greece, and what makes it so irresistible.
