www.facebook.com GreekFoodTV☼ - March Madness - Country Cooking of greece Country Greek Lamb or Goat Baked in Paper. What French-trained chefs call en papillote, Greek rustic cooks know as "kleftiko" or "exohiko" -- basically baking in paper. The word kleftiko comes from the Klefts, mountain rebels who fought in the resistance against the Fascists. They had to hide their food during cooking, usually by roasting whatever meager sustenance they could find, in shallow, covered pits in the ground. Kleftiko hence offers a little poetic license, as the food is "hidden" inside the paper. Exohiko, which means outdoors in Greek, is a more subtle reference to the Klefts.Above, is a dish from the Country Cooking of greece (Chronicle Books, Fall 2012), for either goat or lamb. You'll notice it's whole on the bone, which is a slight deviation from more common recipes that usually call for baking chunks of meat in paper. Meat on the bone is just so much more flavorful. — in greece. Fesklopita is one of the most unusual Greek pies, neither savory nor sweet. It's a dish native to Tinos, Andros and a few other Cycladic islands. It calls for a filling of chard (seskoulo in Greek, of which "fesklopita" is a transliteration; fesklo is the word in the local Cyclades dialect. But the chard is sweetened with raisins and onions and sometimes bound by a little rice. This rendition is the traditional version of a dish I just did at the CIA in St. Helena, CA, for the World of Healthy Flavors ...

Portuguese music and gastronomy encompasses a wide variety of genres. The most renowned is fado, a melancholy urban music, usually associated with the Portuguese guitar and saudade, or longing. Coimbra fado, a unique type of fado, is also noteworthy. Internationally notable performers include Amália Rodrigues, Carlos Paredes, José Afonso, Mariza, Carlos do Carmo, António Chainho, Mísia, and Madredeus. One of the most notable Portuguese musical groups outside the country, and specially in Germany, is the goth-metal band Moonspell. In addition to fado and folk, the Portuguese listen to pop and other types of modern music, particularly from North America and the United Kingdom, as well as a wide range of Portuguese and Brazilian artists and bands. Bands with international recognition include Buraka Som Sistema, Blasted Mechanism and The Gift, both of which were nominated for an MTV Europe Music Award.Portugal has several summer music festivals, such as Festival Sudoeste in Zambujeira do Mar, Festival de Paredes de Coura in Paredes de Coura, Festival Vilar de Mouros near Caminha, and Optimus Alive!, Rock in Rio Lisboa, Super Bock Super Rock and Avante! Festival in the Lisbon Region. Out of the summer season, Portugal has a large number of festivals, designed more to an urban audience, like Flowfest or Hip Hop Porto.

Marianna Kavroulaki, archaeologist and researcher in food history speaking at a symposium regarding ancient Greek food, called Edible History and Edible Stories. In ancient greece, the symposium was a drinking party (from Greek «συμποτείν» (sympotein), "to drink together"). The symposium took place at "Evmaros" which is a cultural association based in Ambelokipi, in Athens. Through archaeology and history they are recreating the ingredients and baking techniques for certain recipes, documented in archaeological findings and philosophical text. Some of the food such as bread, cheese, flour, were prepared by Marianna in accordance with these techniques, through experimental archeology using cooking utensils made of clay etc). The first dinner, draws its inspiration from the dinners of the Hellenistic period. Read more details at: kopiaste.org
