My Greek Table – Episode 409

Pie Heaven

Densely forested mountains, stone-cobbled villages, sheep and emerald greenery are the stuff of Epirus’s lush, mountainous landscape. Diane visits the mountain enclave of a traditional shepherding family and makes a feta cheese pie with layers of crisp homemade pastry that is baked the way it’s been done for centuries: over embers. The result is a taste of heaven on earth! Back in her kitchen, Diane makes two of her own savory pies: a Pleated, Buttery Feta Cheese Pie and a delicious Chicken-Phyllo Pie, both inspired by this region’s deepest traditions.
