A great resource!

I reach for this cookbook again and again when I want to make a phyllo item. There are basic recipes for Greek classics like Spanokopita, Kreatopetes, Sambusik, and Baklava plus innovative reworkings from other cuisines, such as a great Shrimp Toast and a Chinese Fire Cracker dessert as well as Southwestern/TexMex style (try the phyllo quesadillas or chimichangas), phyllo calzones, savory and sweet strudels, etc. This book has loads of folding suggestions, going well beyond the typical triangles and rolls to include crinkle cups and several different tart shells, as well as instructions for using phyllo to encase and bake entree portions of chicken or fish or how to wrap and bake brie in phyllo. A great ressource!
