It's super simple! Just lemon, olive oil and vinegar! And of course season the salad with salt, pepper, and oregano. Super tasty and super healthy!
Thank you! How much of each ingredient do you use
I myself to keep it on hand . I take a dressing bottle that I have had in the cabinet so its measured out by the lines on the bottle. I put balsamic to the line not sure how much it is maybe 3 or 4 table spoons and fill the rest with extra virgin olive oil. Then add 1/4 teaspoon of garlic onion and of course 1 tablespoon of ground Greek oregano. Shake it up and there you go. Always ready.

I agree with Gigi, except I tend to do one or the other - vinegar or lemon - because I find that the two acids seem to cancel each other out. Certain salads work better with vinegar (like lettuce salad), others work better with lemon (cabbage salad), and still some user neither and only use olive oil (Greek village salad - horiatiki). It's all about making a choice that enhance the flavors of the salad.

I have learned so much about Greek cuisine by being on this forum! I know that there are standard recipes that everyone seems to cook.
For example, you can get souvlaki all over. Everyone seems to serve a village salad with slight variations. Most regions seem to make moussaka. There are tons of others.
I have also noticed that each region has their own specialties. How do you go about learning about them?

Enjoying Cooking with Greek Honey

One of the things I love most about Greek honey is its versatility. You can use it in so many different ways in the kitchen. I've drizzled it over Greek yogurt for breakfast, mixed it into salad dressings for a touch of sweetness, and even used it as a glaze for roasted vegetables. The depth of flavor it adds to dishes is truly remarkable.
But perhaps my favorite way to use Greek honey is in baking. It adds a wonderful depth of flavor to cakes, cookies, and pastries. I recently made a batch of baklava using Greek honey, and it was a game-changer. The honey soaked into the layers of phyllo dough, creating a sweet and sticky treat that was absolutely irresistible.
I go out of my way to buy it - if I can't find it locally, I get it online. When I go to Greece, I get some in Greece, too.
