We begin our class with a brief walk through the olive grove from the meeting point, where the small chapel of St. Efrem is. During the walk, you will get to know more about how Oleosophia was created and why the fmaily is at its very core. Through our discussion, you will also get an insight to olive trees as part of our heritage and culture and of course, the role of Extra Virgin Olive Oil in Greek cooking!

 

We will also better understand what cooking means for a Greek family, how food is related to culture, hospitality, mothering and nurturing (especially as all Greek yiayias and mamas alsways give you food to eat!)

​

​

Our walk finishes with our arrival at our kiosk, situated at the highest point of the olive grove and overlooking the trees and the view across it. There, we will pull up our sleeves and get ready to cook! Our Greek Chef will ontriduce us to the menu and what we will be making, breaking down the process in well structured and easy to follow steps. Our Greek Chefs will range over the classes from our lovely yiayia (grandma) to Greek celebrity chefs with international exposure!

​

During the cooking class you will: 

  • Learn how to make easy, Greek mezes to enjoy at home or anywhere

  • Learn about the qualities of olive oil and the use of extra virgin olive oil in the cooking

  • Explore food pairings and why we use the ingredients we use per recipe

  • Combine the Greek flavors with local wine

  • Understand the role of olive oil in the Mediterranean diet in a holistic way

  • Discover the many health benefits of olive oil

  • Find out how to shop for olive oil, how to store it and how to use it properly
