culinary exploration

Follow me through the adventures that take place in my kitchen, in restaurants or in other kitchens. Cooking and food are my passions and I want to share my experiences of cooking, baking and eating with you.
I'm a Greek self-taught cook who lives in Chicago. I learned a lot about cooking from both of my grandmothers, my mom and dad, family and friends. Passing on timeless traditions through food is one thing I strive to do in life.

These are my journeys through culinary exploration...

These large-and-in-charge leeks are from the same farmer from La Porte.  They were $1 a piece - what a deal! 
I’m going to make a pizza with leeks, shallots, crispy prosciutto, crimini mushrooms, white truffle oil, mozarrella and ricotta cheese with them.  A fancier “white pizza” if you will.  :)
