AN EVENING TO SHARE
An evening in the village square
A full dish from the oven, a fresh first bite and small cheese pasties. You don't have to stand in the kitchen all the time: give the table time.
Open the full recipe for the procedure, preparation time and comments.
The rhythm of your evening
Earlier in the day: read the three recipes; make the dough and the filling for the pasties.
More than two hours in advance: start with burerki. Also calculate time for the pre-baking and resting.
During the oven time: bake the pasties on an appropriate separate oven moment; cover the table.
Just before dinner: make daboos so that the rusks still have structure. Serve the pasties as savoury closing.
That's how you set the table.
Use a quiet tablecloth and several small plates. Put the bread on a shelf, but keep space for the oven dish. A branch of mint in a small vase connects the table with the menu.
The sound of the evening
Start with an instrumental piece, let the music stand soft during dinner and choose a song together afterwards.

The rhythm of your evening
Earlier on the day: cook the rice pudding and let cool cover; keep refrigerated.
About two hours in advance: start the moussaka; prepared vegetables, meatloaf and top layer according to the recipe.
While baking: make tzatziki and let the flavors come together in a refrigerator.
Before dinner: leave moussaka to rest. Serve the pudding only after the main corridor.
That's how you set the table.
Work with one large bowl and small bowls instead of lots of decoration. Write the three courses on a ticket. Place a watercarf on both ends of a long table.
The sound of the evening
Read the listen story first. Choose a quiet opening and save a more exuberant song for the coffee.

The rhythm of your evening
About two hours in advance: read the recipes and cut the vegetables for briam.
Start with briam: it has the longest oven time. In the meantime make the fa.
Half an hour in advance: stew the chickpeas with lemon; check the cooking of the vegetables.
At the table: serve fava in a small portion, with warm chickpeas and briam to share.
That's how you set the table.
Place the three bowls in different places so everyone can brag. Use shallow bowls for fava and small spoons for the oil. A herbal branch next to the menu is enough.
The sound of the evening
Choose some instrumental pieces from the guide in advance. Let silence between the pieces: the conversations belong to the evening.

The rhythm of your evening
At least four hours in advance: make baklava according to the recipe; the syrup should be able to withdraw. The previous day can also.
One hour in advance: make tzatziki and put away refrigerated. Read the coffee guide and prepare the cups.
Half an hour in advance: make the lemon chickpeas. Serve with the fresh tzatziki.
After the meal: cut small pieces of baklava and make coffee according to the coffee guide.
That's how you set the table.
First cover for the meal. Do not put the coffee cups down until the last hallway, together with small pieces of baklava and glass water. Thus, the character of the table changes without new decoration.
The sound of the evening
Explore the song stories and choose a song together for the closing. Open the listen links themselves; nothing plays automatically.
Each recipe is converted separately to your number of guests. On many dishes you can reduce the quantities yourself. Round pieces, eggs and packaging are practically finished; bowls do not go with baking time and scale. Bread and drink are added yourself.
