Book Brings Back fond memories of my youth.

Just purchased a copy of this book. I knew Eva when I was young. She was best friend's with my best friend's mom and family, and we spent a lot of time hanging out and eating stuff that Eva and my friend's mom would make. One time Eva asked my friend Nick and I what we wanted for dinner....we said how about burgers. As talented a cook that Eva was....she could not cook a burger....LOL!

I TREASURE this as it has a unique pencil note Return to George.

No OTHER Cookbook like this one !!!

I bought my first copy of this book when I was 15 years old. My mother was an exceptional greek cook, and I always thought this cookbook was the closest thing to my mom's authentic greek cuisine. (In fact some of the recipes are better) When I was first married, I used the book and it eventually fell apart. I searched and found another copy. The same thing happened to the second one. I'm looking for my 3rd one now. I have purchased several greek cook books in the past and I still think Greek Cooking for the gods has the best and most authentic greek recipes available today. I have been using it for over 30 years.

If you want to cook like a Greek, this is the book to get!

This book has the best recipes for authentic Greek foods. The baklava recipe is excellent. I highly recommend this book for anyone who wants to learn the art of Greek cooking!

"My" Greek Cookbook

I'm happy to find I can still order a copy of Eva Zane's cookbook. I need to replace the one I've been using since the early 70's . . . one that's currently bound with a rubberband. Although my family has enjoyed everything we've made from the book, one of our all-time favorites is Spaghetti with Clam Sauce. It gets rave reviews from everyone, including my kids. I have other Greek cookbooks, but this is the one I USE.

The Best I've Ever Come Across!

I first found this cook book in a used book store: Since then I have seen it in every Greek food store I've been in. I haven't cooked everything in it, but everything I have cooked has been delicious! The Fassolada recipe alone is worth the price. Every Greek cook I know recommends it! I know of no other cook book that stands so completely alone in its field.

my favourite greek cookbook

my copy of this book is in terrible shape...an indication of how much I use it. It was one of only 3 cookbooks I dragged across the world from Canada to Dubai! The pastitso recipe is great; so is the galatoboureko...but you can't go wrong with any recipe in the book.
