@Kepler2110 Год назад

While it is true that Greeks do like their meat, they traditionally cut out all animal products during Lent and because their love for food is too much to compromise on any flavour, a whole cuisine was invented (aka "nistisima") for the Lent period which is effectively vegan! (with the exception of the occasional sea food or honey dish which you can easily ignore) I've seen a lot of vegan moussakas out there and yours is by far the most authentic-looking! Will definitely give it a try! With love from Athens xx

@RainbowPlantLife Год назад

Hi Natalia, thanks for sharing that! I hadn't heard of nistisima, but I am intrigued and will look it up :) I'm glad you're excited to try my version of vegan moussaka!

@eyemonster12 Год назад

There’s a great new recipe book out this year called Nistisima! Definitely worth a look. Craving moussaka now, scheduling it for my next day off! ❤

@hyacinthe7 Год назад

That's right, nistísima (νηστίσιμα) are essentially fast-worthy foods. Modern Greek culture being heavily defined by Eastern Christian traditions, our cuisine contains a lot of dishes, savoury and sweet, which are appropriate for the fasting periods, which isn't just the 40-50 days before Pascha, but also the period leading up to Christmas, the Dormition of the Virgin, together with other one-off days.

@jessicawood3913 Год назад

This is true! I lived in Cyprus for 3 years and it was the easiest place to find vegan food everywhere (of course, if you ask the locals for vegan food then they’ll tell you there’s nothing for you but if you ask for anything νηστίσιμα you’ll have quite a lot of dishes to choose from) ❤️

@stephgilliam Год назад

I love the subscriber taste tests.

@elpretender1357 Год назад

I appreciate that one of the taste testers made both the lentil and mock meat version of your moussaka. The results surprised me, didn't expected people to like the lentil one more.

@RainbowPlantLife Год назад

Same! I think it really depends on the quality/flavor of your vegan meat. I tried this with Impossible burger and loved it, but didn't like it with Beyond Burger meat, as the taste was too artificial. With the lentil version, it doesn't taste as meaty, but you know what you're getting.

@elpretender1357 Год назад

@@RainbowPlantLife Interestingly enough, I recall having watched a video of two women who made a "cheap vs expensive vegan lasagna" test. The taste testor was only one guy (not a big sample size, sure) but I was surprised that he preferred the lasagne made with lentils and nuts, even mentioning how that one tasted more "authentic".

@Alina_Schmidt Год назад

That reminded me of your Lentil boglonese recepie, which also scored better than the version with vegan meat (was it beyond beef?).

@theodora_pilates Год назад

Omg as a Greek I almost cried watching this 😭 I wish I could get this food here!! I was never a big fan of mousaka but this looks amazing! And I miss kolokythokeftedes and tzatziki 😍 Thank you for sharing these recipes and doing such an amazing job 🙏🇬🇷 💙

@elenifaller7092 Год назад

This Greek vegan eats tzatziki (almond/soy yogurt)meletzanasalata, spanakopita (tofu feta) and gigantes on a regular basis. My family def. ate meat but more as an accent to everything else. Only thing I really miss is real feta (goat/sheep milk).

@nicolecuadra7425 Год назад

If you want to make more Greek recipes, you should made briam, fava, stuffed grape leaves! Traditionally vegan and super super yummy

@RainbowPlantLife Год назад

Ooh great tip! I love grape leaves.

@eboli7146 Год назад

Actually there are a lot of traditional Greek dishes that are vegetarian/vegan, including desserts, due to religious customs... also the cuisine varies across the country, each region has its specialities. If you want to explore more Greek cuisine can recommend an incredible braised chickpea dish called Revithada, kounipidi kapama which is cauliflower in tomato and cinnamon sauce, briam, tomato fritters, lemon and lentil soup.... mmmmm

@parkerdinhwilliams15 Год назад

A good alternative to pre-made vegan feta is to make your own with tofu or a more neutral vegan cheese that you marinade in olive oil, white wine vinegar, lemon juice and lots of oregano. Comes out super delicious and oozing of feta goodness.

@songbirdmariel Год назад

Germans are so critical, and generally used to bland food! Don't take it to heart. Can't wait to try these exciting recipes! 😍 I hope you do a Jewish food video someday. I've been searching for the elusive perfect matzoh ball recipe...

@johnr.4186 Год назад

I made this dish twice after two other failed moussaka attemps from other recipes. This one is the most authentic and you hit is out of the park with true full flavors, resulting in the most delicious greek comfort food! The bechamel topping seemed a little insubstantial the first time, so I mixed in a bottle of "Just Egg" with your bechamel recicipe and it was even better, fluffy & delicate, like non vegan authernic Moussaka. I love this recipe, but I believe even better now with the tweak. Nisha, you continue to raise the bar in Vegan cuisine, always grateful to You!

@vasilikidaratsianou5250 Год назад

Hi Nisha i love your channel but i must say Greek food as a Mediterranean diet is very plant based as Greek people fast on multiple occasions due to religion (no meat, egg, dairy and sometimes olive oil). Some recipes you could try next are fava ( mashed split peas), gemista ( stuffed vegetables with rice and herbs), mpriam ( mixed vegetables like eggplant zuchini etc on tomato sauce), lentil soup, melintzanosalata (eggplant dip), fasolakia ( green beans cooked with carrots potatoes etc), mpamies ( okra in tomato sauce) to name a few 😊thank you for sharing i will definitely try these recipes

@RainbowPlantLife Год назад

Thank you for sharing all these lovely dishes! I've had Greek fava bean dip and love it! And yes, I totally agree that the Mediterranean diet is very plant-based, but I really wanted to include that iconic clip from my big fat greek wedding LOL. And at least here in the U.S., it's unfortunately quite hard to find plant-based Greek food, likely catering to American palettes. My favorite restaurant in NYC used to be a Greek restaurant before I went vegan, but now all I can have on the menu is a beet salad or the horiatiki without feta 😭

A traditional Greek diet was 90% vegetable. Times were tough and meat was reserved for a special occasion such as a wedding, easter, or someone's nameday. Fish was more popular than meat for the island population. The abundance of meat nowadays has made it a staple in the daily diet

@iliaiatroo4612 8 месяцев назад

Hi Nisha, I love your channel. Your chickpea curry has become a family favorite. Thanks! But I ought to inform you that Greek cuisine is not meat based. I guess it is a lot like Indian cuisine: those who know it only through restaurant fare, may think that lamb vindaloo or moussaka is all we ever eat. It is not. Moussaka, souvlaki and other such recipes are festive dishes, reserved for holidays or for treating guests. Sounds incredible? Well, for most of their history, Greeks have been subsistence farmers or shepherds; they would milk, shear or get eggs from their stock, but scarcely ever eat it. Secondly, the formidable fasts of the Orthodox church allow only for 50-54 days of meat-eating per year. The rest 315 days had to be filled somehow, so our cuisine is full of vegan or vegetarian dishes. True, takeaway has changed that, but still, during the week, a Greek family will usually have two days of legumes, two days of vegetable stews, a day of fish, a day of rice or pasta (with vegetables) and a meat-based dish, usually on Sunday. (It's true we love our dairy though. There is hardly a day without some kind of cheese on the table ;) )

Greek food does not consist of a lot of meat, quite the opposite. The Mediterranean diet has a maximum of 2 times a week of meat. All the rest are vegetables and legumes. Don't get carried away by the movies :)
