The Greek Makeover: Diane Kochilas Freshens Up Greek Cooking

Christopher Kimball’s Milk Street Radio

Today, we look back at one of our favorite episodes with cooking legend Diane Kochilas. She talks the real Greek yogurt, how to make great dishes with stale bread and the magical Greek island of Ikaria. Plus, we explore the art and nostalgia of Jell-O molds; Dan Pashman untangles the legal definition of a sandwich; and we present a fresh new take on Spaghetti Puttanesca. (Originally aired May 10, 2019.)
