Για σας,

I was looking for a good lamb recipe in the web and found this site:
www.greek-recipe.com
Lots of Greek recipes in alphabetical order. Very interesting so I thought I should let you know. Καλή όρεξη.

Bye, m.t.

At the beginning of the forum and long before you joined, I had a sub-forum for food/recipes - just in case anybody is interested we can re-create it. :)

Well, as you've mentioned: I wasn't a member then. So I don't know what led you to cancel it finally. IMO everything that has to do something with Greek culture (also Cyprus and diaspora Greeks) is ok in this forum.

I canceled it because nobody looked into it. But I can create a new one.
Since for now the activity on this forum is VERY low, mabye you could start a poll before I go into working mode?

I'm a member of another forum (not Greek related...it's for writers) and every now and then they start a recipe thread. But they never get any activity and don't last long. I don't know why this is. I would check out any recipes that might be posted, but whether or not I'd actually post any myself, I don't know :donno:

Okay, I have added a poll, now we will see. :)

Do you know this link? Even if you're not interesting in cooking it's good for listening to Greek!

:bravo: thankyou Zititi for a delicious link!
first time i've tried to listen to Greek with my mouth watering!
a bit quick for me at the moment, but they say a picture is worth a thousand words.

καλή χρονιά

K.K.

Γεια σας Πεδια!

This is such a "good" subject to get into. I love Greek cuisine and cooking in general for that matter.
I have five or six books on Greek cooking that I have read from cover to cover just for the pleasure of it. It has influence my everyday cooking. Fortunately, we live in a greek part of town, so we have access to a good variety of imported goods for this great country. A lot of restaurants in Montreal are owned and operated by Greeks and some put a lot of pride and effort in their cooking and the results are amazing dishes on your table.

Ευτυχισμενο το νεο ετος!!!

Bonne et Heureuse Année à tous

Kali Xronia!

I think a sub-forum cooking related is welcome here, with the one basic condition: someone should post some recipes!!! Even better, recipes that they've already tried because otherwise I can always find a recipe on the internet, if I want to.

For me, for example, it's always better to hear/read it from someone who actually cooked that thing than to read the simple instructions on a website. Besides, the advantage is that here we can address questions if there is something we don't understand or we don't find.

Another example: I found a lot of recipes with ingredients that I can't find here nor do I know with what I could replace them. It will be helpful to have whom to ask questions like this.

And a final suggestion: considerig that the best Greek recipes could only come from ...Greeks, of course, I would say that maybe we should post other recipes as well. This way the thread won't be a one-way road, in which only some members write recipes and the rest of us just read them. We could have in the cooking sub-forum a thread with Non-Greek recipes. But stuff we do and we usually cook, not links to various websites. As I said, just a suggestion...:)
