109.  August 15th on Ikaria
August 15th is the peak of Greek summer, when all of Greece shuts down. It is the holiday of the Dormition of the Virgin Mary, but despite the sobriety of the day, it’s also one of the most festive, with panygyria (feasts of food and dancing) everywhere. Especially on Ikaria, which is home to what some say is the largest ...

111.  Zucchini Stir-Fry with Teardrop Tomatoes, Greek Herbs & Greek Feta
  Every Greek summer, in my Ikaria "longevity" garden, zucchini rules. I cook it up in lots of different Greek recipes all great examples of the healthy Greek diet. You can grill or stir-fry the zucchini and add a sprinkling of Greek feta and Greek herbs. Don’t forget to use extra virgin Greek olive oil in this excellent example of ...
112.  The Power of Women in a Greek Kitchen
Happy International Women’s Day! Commemoration is in order and from my perspective that inevitably means the place of women in the kitchen. There are countless unsung female heroes in professional kitchens throughout Greece, mothers, grandmothers and aunts who help out in their kids’ restaurants, in the family business, or as employees of others, typically there to make all the traditional foods. Of course, there are numerous very well-known and respected women chefs, among them Nena Ismirnoglou, Argyro Barbarigou and Georgiana Hiliadaki, to name but three in Greece.

CNN – Travel | 5 Greek food blogs you should follow Chef, author and cooking show host Diane Kochilas hails from Ikaria, the Greek island famous for the longevity of its residents. She’s an ambassador of healthy Greek cuisine and features countless Greek recipes on her website ranging from classics such as spanakorizo (Greek spinach rice) and dolmades (vegetarian stuffed grape leaves ...
114.  Ikaria: Making Wine with My Feet
The end of the summer on Ikaria is always filled with a sweet sadness.  The light shifts ever so subtly from crisp white to hints of gold. Fall is imminent. We pack up the house. We say “Kalo Fthinoporo — Have a good autumn,” to friends who we won’t see for months, maybe for a full year. The garden brims with ...
115.  Ikarian Soufico, Blue Zone Longevity Vegetables
Soufico, a delicious medley of caramelized summer vegetables, is one of the great summer dishes of Greece.
116.  Three walnut-honey aphrodisiac Greek recipes for Valentine’s Day
  When I was a young bride, we did what almost every Greek couple at the time used to do: head to our parents for Sunday lunch. I was living in Greece, so that inevitably meant heading to my in-laws, since my family was all in New York. Lunch was always centered by some sort of roast, potatoes or pilafi, ...
117.  Ikaria Longevity Lentil Soup with Sage and Chile Peppers
As unexpected (and seemingly Southwestern American) as the use of sage and chile peppers might be in this Ikarian soup, cooks from a generation or two ago on the island used both to flavor lentils. “We put chile peppers in bean soups in general, because black pepper was too expensive,” my neighbor Titika taught me. The chile peppers grown in ...
118.  Ikaria Longevity Cornmeal & Greens Soup
I had been hearing about the use of corn kernels and cornmeal in the Ikarian diet ever since my aunt Mary, who passed away several years ago at the age of 97, mentioned the corn-stuffed cabbage leaves she remembered as a child. This soup is an old recipe and a perfect example of the kind of filling, hearty, plant-based foods ...
