Stocking the pantry for Greek cooking

[ssherie_]

I want to do better at preparing on the fly, Greek meals. I realized that having things on hand for ingredients is the key to this. What do you guys think, have I missed anything?

• Fresh onions
• Garlic bulb
• In-season produce
• Carrots and celery
• Canned tomato products (crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, tomato sauce, diced tomatoes)
• Pantry ingredients like sundried tomatoes and capers
• Lots of olives
• Feta cheese
• Beans - either dried or canned - like chick peas, navy beans, lentils
• Rice
• Pasta, like orzo or hilopites

This seems like the basics. Did I miss anything?

I totally agree! Greek olive oil is the best.

I can't believe I forgot to put olive oil on the list hahaha. It's so much a part of my pantry already I didn't think to put it there.
