Phyllo from Scratch Cooking Class

Service Description

Phyllo dough looks fragile, almost intimidating. Paper-thin, delicate, demanding — until you touch it. In this hands-on Phyllo from Scratch Cooking Class in Athens, you start with a simple dough made from scratch and discover how flexible, forgiving, and alive phyllo really is. The experience is calm, intuitive, and deeply rooted in Greek home cooking. You work with one dough and explore three different ways to open it: Three Phyllo Techniques With a rolling pin – steady, grounding, and quietly meditative With bare hands – instinctive, fluid, and deeply satisfying The sunray cheat – a clever, forgiving shortcut locals love You won’t overthink it. You’ll feel the difference. And one technique will naturally become yours. Once the phyllo is ready, flavor takes the lead. You choose from ten Greek-inspired fillings, all based on vegetables, cheese, and balance. You can keep it simple or mix and match freely: Ten Fillings to Choose From Spinach Eggplant Mushrooms Zucchini Leeks Tomato Feta with honey & sesame Caramelized onions (always available) Extra feta (always available) Your own mix-and-match combination Caramelized onions and feta can be added to any filling — because Greek cooking is generous by nature. Your pie is folded, brushed, and placed in the oven. While it bakes and turns golden, the experience continues. You’ll enjoy: Three traditional Greek dips A small olive tasting with different varieties Complimentary unlimited drinks: soft drinks, beer, wine, or tea, depending on the time of day and your mood There is no rush. Just conversation, small bites, and the scent of baking phyllo filling the space. When the pie comes out, crisp and crackling, the first bite says everything. This is not about perfection. It’s about touch, choice, and confidence. One dough. Three ways to open. Ten fillings to choose. A phyllo experience in Athens that stays with you long after the last bite.
