Special Food

This type of classification helps to present recipes with another point of view and in an alternative manner. One thing is sure, there are many Greek recipes in this blog but there are also a lot of vegetable recipes, so I thought that a category for vegetarian and vegan (very trendy and for courageous people!) food might make sense. I also decided to include recipes coming from other cultures so I created an additional category for “Food for Around the World” :-) So enjoy :-)

Cauliflower Soup (velouté) with Roquefort Cheese and Pears

A velouté without heavy cream? Is this possible? It is, thanks to the presence of the other ingredients that is well balanced and interesting! Cauliflower couples very well with a little bit of Roquefort or the other French cheese called fourme d’Ambert (it’s a bit milder) and of course pears! It’s tasteful and very delicate!

Baby cuttlefish with onions and red wine (soupies krassates)

These baby cuttlefish are cooked into red wine and have a tomato sauce as well as candied onions! It’s really good and the secret is the use of peppercorns which brings sweetness to the dish and the use of allspice which brings its special character! It’s really good and you should not miss the opportunity to make it!
