Greek cuisine is a Mediterranean cuisine. Contemporary Greek cookery makes wide use of olive oil, lemon juice, vegetables, and herbs, grains and bread, wine, fish, and various meats, including lamb, poultry, rabbit and pork. The most commonly seen grain is wheat, however barley is also used.t was Archestratos in 320 B.C. who wrote the first cookbook in history. Greece has a culinary tradition of some 4,000 years. Ancient Greek cuisine was characterized by its frugality and was founded on the Mediterranean triad: wheat, olive oil, and wine, with meat being rarely eaten and fish being more common.
The Greek traditional diet is based largely on fresh, unprocessed seasonal product. It is low in saturated fat and high in dietary fibre, starch, antioxidant vitamins (from cereals, fruit and vegetables) and polyphenols (from wine and olive oil).alads have played a very important role in the traditional everyday diet but they are undervalued, misrepresented and not fully appreciated in food literature. Although salads are associated with fresh vegetables, the use of cooked vegetables and legumes is not unusual.
