This week has flown by , and its market day already and the sun is shining. I have just returned and will unpack my purchases in a minute . I bought a sweet white cabbage and some carrots in order to make the classic Greek winter salad of grated cabbage and carrot dressed in lemon juice and olive oil. The leftovers will
be used for a veggy soup over the weekend as the forecast is that the weather is going to turn much colder.
I also purchased a few baby white turnips shaded with purple that will probably be roasted around tonights chicken.
I visited my favourite herb man , who likes to practise his english with me and bought parsley , coriander , watercress, fennel, rucola and beautiful organic Kos lettuces.
I feel a watercress , fennel and orange salad coming on for this evening with a little coriander added.
Should I have entitled this blog Gourmet Greece. No is the answer! Eating & drinking well in Greece ,is all about fresh,simple, tasty food that is gutsy and colourful. Hear about great wines made from Greece's treasure trove of indigenous grape varieties. I will share all my favourite recipes and gatro experiences with you and invite you share your thoughts.
