Daphne (deadendmind) sent me a step by step photo recipe for yummy chocolate truffles. Here’s a note on culture. When it’s our name day or our birthday we traditionally do a kerasma in Greece. It means to offer a bit of food or dessert at work or to friends and family to celebrate. So this is (…)
A few months ago Mama Despoina (my rocking mum) called to inform me that at a dinner with friends she had a mythical cheese pie. I initially failed to grasp the significance of this since my mum rarely expresses such admiration for food. Even rarer is for her to gobble down THREE PIECES of feta (…)

Opa, I thought. Is there a recipe like that and I don’t know it? What the hell? I asked Athena and hey presto she (…)

Auntie Sofia and the Digital Scullery kitchen love videos, photo recipes and mashing up Greek and world food. We mainly love GRUB, of the type that puts hair on your chest. Gourmet and cuisine are two words we just don't get.
