    That was the coolest way to cut an onion I've ever seen.

      My yiayia used to do it the same way.

      It's very common and traditional in Greece, but it's an old way, most yayas cut it like this, modern women use a cutting board.

    Hello Yia Yia. I am in the restaurant business for 30 years and have three. I like your recipes, but I subscribed because of your great attitude and happy spirit. Your food is a reflection of who you are. Thank you.

    My mother used to make spanakorizo when I was growing up in Athens. As a kid, I hated it, but later, as a Greek of the diaspora, I grew to love it. Thank you very much for your wonderful recipe. Now I can make it myself--and maybe teach my grandchildren to like it as well. (By the way, I loved your keftedes recipe too. I had been looking for a recipe that makes them fluffy--αφράτοι--for a long time, and yours does the trick.) Warm regards, and keep on singing!
