Makes 6 to 8 servings Soufico is one of the “national” dishes of Ikaria, an island (not a nation!), in the northeastern Aegean that also happens to be where my family roots are. It is one of many dishes throughout Greece and throughout the Mediterranean at large that call for the same medley of summer vegetables, anchored by eggplant, the fleshiest and most filling of all of them. This is my friend Eleni’s version. It is one of the simplest and most delicious I’ve ever tried. To find some of the artisinal Greek products you'll need to make this, visit my online shop
