An opportunity to take a break from the blue of our beautiful island and go green! Enjoy the peaceful Greek countryside off the tourist beaten beaches. Interact with fellow visitors while we teach you, step by step, how to make traditional mouth-watering Phyllo Pies. By the end of this class you will have acquired the know-how of these authentic Greek delicacies that you’ve seen at local bakeries and always dreamed of making yourself and get the chance to take the skills and recipes back home with you.
Our baking class begins with a welcoming morning coffee or tea.
We light the fire in the wood burning oven and begin to knead our Phyllo dough.
Then we walk around Lefkada Micro Farm and see how we grow food the traditional organic way.
Get to know our trees, our vegetables, our herbs and our animals.
By the time we get back to our open air kitchen the oven is hot and the dough is ready to be stretched, filled and rolled.
We then prepare 4 different recipes:
Wild greens with Feta cheese
Goat cheese, sun dried tomatoes, olives and oregano
Squash pumpkin, walnuts, cinnamon and raisins
Baklava with honey, cinnamon and walnuts
We bake the pies and finally we sit around our dining table and enjoy a delicious lunch that we prepared together.
