Cheese Bread With Wild Asparagus

eat, salty, classical, season, greek, spring, music

Food Notes

A precious gift: wild asparagus harvested by hand in the fields of Oropos, Attica. A fantastic recipe with Greek kasseri and Cypriot haloumi, inspired by the cookbook “Dina’s Bakery: My Best Recipes”. The organic soft flour from traditional, indigenous varieties produced by the awarded farmers of Agroktima Antonopoulou makes the difference!

Garnished with beetroot chips, shamrock flowers and daisies celebrating the beauty of the blooming nature of Greece.

Music Pairing

Spyro Samaras, “Dance of the Flowers” from the opera “Flora Mirabilis”.

Music Bites

The three-act opera “Flora Mirabilis” by Spyros Filiskos-Samaras premiered in Milan, Italy in 1886. Samaras (1861-1915), a prominent representative of the Ionian Music School, recognised for his talent by Mascagni and Leoncavallo, used the libretto of the Italian Ferdinando Fontana to create a memorable symbolic work based on medieval Swedish legends about winter and spring, life and death, light and darkness.
