[Sca-cooks] Period Greek Recipes

[Anne-Marie Rousseau]

Hi from AM!
it would be really helpful if we knew what time period of greek food you
were aiming for...(maybe you said and I missed it?)

Early greek as in classical greek would be pretty different from medieval
greek (which no doubt would reflect other Mediterranean influences, etc. how
heavy into the eastern world were they at that point?) vs modern greek,
which contains all kinds of new world elements that you KNOW they didn't
have.

Fun!
-AM

Well, this is all great stuff, I now know what NOT to read, of course, 
Fab Feasts was never on my reading lists, and this Frugal Gourmet stuff 
never really interested me either. Guess I will just keep looking - let 
you know what I turn up at our local library Thursday.
