Additional Details

Description: The skill of a cook was once measured by the lightness and succulence of her pastry. Today, factory-made foods ease the burden of the home cook and have almost eliminated the art of pastry-making. Packaged mixes, pastries which are made up ready to roll out and pastry sheets rolled for use are all readily available to the consumer. 

Fillo, the tissue-thin Greek pastry, is becoming a most popular pastry. It seems most cooks have wanted to try their hand at cooking with fillo, only to end up in despair with the fine sheets sticking together or crumbling to pieces. The Tess Mallos Fillo Pastry Cookbook therefore is a timely and welcome publication. Drawing on her wealth of experience as a cookery consultant and writer, Tess Mallos explains all about fillo pastry: what it is, how it is made, how to buy, handle, store, cut, wrap and cook it. In addition she introduces the fascinating kataifi pastry, with recipes for main courses as well as the more traditional kataifi sweets. 

Andrew Warns beautiful photographs illustrate the recipes, and practical line drawings show how it is all done. The author's carefully tested recipes, with their clear, detailed instructions, have been devised to suit any occasion; and they range from small, tasty appetizers and impressive main courses to exciting and unusual sweets. Enjoy the delights of cooking with fillo pastry, and kataifi, without the despair. It really is quite easy with Tess Mallos.
