I thought you seemed too exotic to be English. Thanks for mentioning your ancestry. From what I know of Greek food, I could easily be a vegetarian in Greece, (much of the Mediterranean actually). They know the mastery of preparing vegetables dishes. I'd still supplement with fish though, perhaps once a week.
Ah! Another stunning video to hit a home run on all of a person senses! I love you Kylie. Wow! This is going to be fun rey! Looking forward to seeing your skirt finished also...
Merci beaucoup pour cette jolie recette de vacances que nous partagerons en famille! 😄😘
Grazie molto Kylie! 🥬🥧😋
Beautiful recepie and video! The only place that competes with Italy for my heart is indeed the Greek coast and islands. Thankyou fir emboldening me to brave making philo from scratch, it's not even close to the reasonable weather for this harvest in Scandinavia but I will definately cook this when summer arrives. Can't wait!
Eucharistó Kylie. ♥️🙏
...And spanakopita and tyropita and so many other Greek pies,,,i am so glad that you don't forget your greek roots,,,make more greek foods and sweets they are delicious...Many kisses from Greece and Crete island,,we are waiting for you again...Oooo what about your husband did he like it??Kisses Anastasia...
As a fellow greek, you brought me back to a time that I hold dear to my heart. I could smell and taste everything. I cried and smiled through it all! Kylie, you touch everyone in such endearing ways, whether with food, decorations, restorations or just a conversation from the heart. Your talents are something beyond what a simple lens from a camera can capture. Imagine...all these emotions by making a hortopita! haha You're definitely a unique and beautiful soul to say the least! 💙
Can we all just take a moment to appreciate the supreme cinematography talent that is Kyle Flavell?? The tremendous effort in filming and painstaking editing involved in producing this, and all the videos you deliver here on UA-cam is not lost one me, a fellow content creator. Thank you for a sharing all the beauty you capture, Kylie. Love fromToronto, Enza ❤️
This means so much to me. Thank you. 🙏
🥰
@@KylieFlavell X2!

@@KylieFlavell I always feel like I'm watching a movie :) please continue to create the magic for us. It transports me to area that at this time in life, I'm not able to visit. blessings. xo
As a greek myself, this was such a touching video to watch from my favourite person on the internet!
Sending lots of love to you and your loved ones Kylie! ❤️
💙💙💙💙💙 Thank you!
@@KylieFlavell 💙❤️
Same here.....as a Greek I was moved with Kylie's delicate and sensitive approach to her Greek heritage. Love and respect from the USA...filakia
As a Greek Aussie myself, I couldn’t agree more 😊thank you Kylie for your beautiful videos as always 🙏Toulla
Good for you. You made your own filo and mountain greens. Like my grandma. I miss her cooking.
I swear, I have teared watching this ❤️ big Love from a Philhellene
Bravo!!!!!!You transferred the Greek spirit in your cooking. Thanks and kisses from Athens
I love Greece🌷
Kylie - once again perfection! Could NEVER make this but you make it look so easy. The best part is the dancing at the end, so lovely………..🤗🇨🇦
I was so looking forward to seeing Guido devour this! I’m sure he loved it. I know I would! It looks amazing and I love that you put so much passion into the dishes you prepare. You not only have a marvelous gift of cinematography, but expert culinary skills. Bravissimo! 🇮🇹♥️
I was waiting for Guido's reaction too!!!
We always loved you ❤ but now that we know that you are also Greek, we love you a little bit more!! I ve been following you the past 2 years and it s such a lovely surprise to find out that you have greek roots! Love from Athens!!!!💗💗💞That's my first comment!!🌹
O my goodness! I’m soooo hungry now!
I love the incorporation of the videos of your youth and Greece and where you've traveled and the differences between then and now and your beauty and has evolved it's all gorgeous very nice Love the video truly
As a Greek girl with a Yiayia that made a version of this: I LOVED THIS !!!! Sitting here with my sister who came from 2 states away- watching- oohing & aaahing !!!! Sending this to my niece who adores you !!!! We love you, Kylie!!!!!!
🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
How lovely that you are from a Greek origin!!
Your grandmother can be very proud of you because everything you do, you do it beautifully!!
Ciao Kylie, sei bravissima. Un altro modo che usiamo in Grecia per dare alle nostre pite quel bel colore è di sbattere un tuorlo con un cucchiaino d'acqua e poi spennellare la pita prima di infornarla.. Un bacio d' Atene!!
Your recipes look delicious, and your approach to cooking is delightful. Wholehearted, knowledgeable, making everything from scratch. You're inspiring...Your baby is lucky to have a mom who will make delicious things from scratch. Thank you for all and congratulations on the birth.
Kylie in Greece we use a long an thinner stick to make the fylo. You should try it it is easier and quicker. Great job though as always. I admire you so much 😍
You make greens "sound" delicious❗ 😋 🤫😃
Unique Kylie!! Greek tourist organization should pay you for this wonderful advertisement of my beautiful country!
Thank you for all your amazing work we enjoy every week!
All the best to you and your loved ones, kalimera from Athens 🤗
I m Greek, I live in Greece my whole life and yet only recently I begun making hortopita and spanakopita with homemade fyllo. Congratulations!
Hi Kylie, Spring dandelion “weeds” that most Americans kill with pesticides are a superfood that pioneers crossing unexplored area of the USA flourished on after a winter with zero fresh veggies and greens. I love them! All the best, Julie 🌷
Yes, very true, I make dandelion salad to eat alongside pasta dishes, as a bitter contrast. I just add lemon, oil, salt and mix and remove chunks of garlic before eating. I absolutely love it. It is high in magnesium and has analgesic qualities, helps me sleep like a baby.
@@TenTenJ I never have used PESTICIDES or anything not organic in my yard ever. Because off my honey bees 🐝
I have to steal their honey at least every 4 years
@@Cenepk101 that sounds amazing!
I used dandelion leaves in curry and pasta dishes to replace spinach at times, and when spinach is in short supply, as the dishes stand there is no difference in the taste and very economical.
I loved it! I make my coffee in my moto with foamed milk on top, settle on my sofa and enjoy immensely your videos every Sunday morning. I so look forward to Sundays and your video. grazie mille, xx Gianna BTW I always share your cooking videos with my Sister since she loves to cook and is so much more talented and patient. She also loves to chop things up and prep. LOL
So much beauty and care in everything that you do.
Thank you for sharing so beautiful moments from our country
You are a wonderful woman. Well done on the pie xxx
Love this recipe. Your filming and music choices are magnificent as well. Thanks for sharing 😍😘
My Sicilian grandmother made a greens pie very much like this, was never able to find any recipe for it, but so similar! She added anchovies under the top crust that was more of a bread dough. Those bitter greens make your mouth water, beautiful!
Kylie! Thank you so much for this video. As a greek person I can tell you that Hortopita and Spanakopita are two of the most common pies served here and anyone can tell you that they have grown up eating this dish. Personally it brings me back so many memories of my grandparents, especially my grandpa who used to always bring me a piece of my grandma's homemade pie whenever I yould see him. Thank you for the memories your beautiful video brought to my mind.
My daughter cooked today tsouknida( nettle) soup with a little quantity of potatoes and spinach. I had it smashed and added a lot of lemon! Really tasty and healthy
Kalimera Kylie.. just woke up watching this in bed before I get dressed to go to work and now craving xortopita.. Thankfully I'm in Greece so easy to find some in the local bakery( not as lovely as yours though) So I guess its going to be xoryopita for breakfast 😊
Thank you for your lovely videos!
I just love your videos so much! They are so beautiful and peaceful. Thank you for sharing your passion and work with us. Sending you love and light. This dish looks so delicious and makes me want to travel back to Greece and Italy.
you and me Kylie we have many common things. I am Cypriot Greek and we share the same love for Italy. love your videos you always give me a sense of peace .
Who thinks that Kylie is absolutely goergous and lovely!! 🙋♀💞🙌
When will we stop limiting our admiration for women based on their physical attributes but instead on their skills and talents and strengths? These are the traits that withstand the test of time, unlike the fleeting nature of youth and beauty.
@@senzaliving928 I understand your point but you are probably taking my comment in another way. I wrote this comment because I’m a follower since 2017 I admire her skills as a filmmaker and her content is really inspiring. I really like to show my appreciation in the comments.
I’ve never been confident enough to make phyllo from scratch! Thanks for making it look so approachable!!
Just a beautiful escape every time you post and create 🥰 thank you Kylie
Such an amazing cook...oh my goodness 😍
Gorgeous video, storytelling and pie! ΜΠΡΑΒΟ!!
‘Tis a thing of beauty, Kylie. The colors at the beginning...makes me think of...
This dish looks so amazing! I love spanikopita so I need to make this! I loved the music and the scenery. Greece is a place I have on my list to visit one day. I love hearing your sweet stories about your grandmother and cooking, how special!
Oh my goodness, I lived in Greece for a couple of years and loved Horta, omg this was a trip down memory lane for me. One of the homes I used to teach English in, used to serve me Boiled Horta with lashings of lemon juice, served with fresh fish and fried potato Yummy. My favourite Greek Lunch for sure. Your pie looked exactly like the one the children's Yaya used to make xxxxx
So then you really understand what I mean when I say I love greens! 🥰🌿💙
Kylie you're a treasure! As Greek myself, I have to tell your hortopita is great!!
Wow, yum! Loved the ending with the two love birds dancing. 😍
Oh my, not only mouth-watering but a work of art as well!
NE England here; for many years i have eaten herbs and weeds from the garden in salads etc. because of their wonderful health benefits. " Waste not want not" was how i was brought up! This looks right up my street Kylie! 💜🌻🥳🍀☘🌿
Indeed! That was a saying my family repeated every day in our house.
New subscriber here (this video popped up on my recommended) who happens to be half Greek. As a first generation American I’m working hard to keep as much tradition going in my family as possible from both sides of my family and that includes a HUGE emphasis on food. Can’t wait to see more!
This looks so delicious! Last year we went to Croatia and had Burek, my daughter loved it so much. She comes home next week for a break from college and im going to surprise her with this. She loves vegetables and requests your immunity soup all the time. I bet I’ll be making that as well.
How lovely. This reminds me of our mother always asking us what homecoming meal we’d like when we come home from study or work or living abroad. Food creates such intimate rituals.
I always make my son’s favorite meal when he comes to visit - it is a wonderful tradition and means so much to us.
What a beautiful presentation. I grow many of these herbs and greens in my garden. Will attempt this completely plant based.
Im from Cyprus , its true we also eat many vegtables and lentals ,people assume greek food is just about kebabs !
That pie looks so yummy. Thank you for sharing it.
This is wonderful- you’re authentic ευχαριστώ - that’s sooo yum- the best 🥰
As i watch you soak up the sun. I'm watching the snow fall from my window. I'm so jealous. I want to be soaking up the warm sun too. ❤ from Pennsylvania!!!! Your dish looked delicious... 😊
I have tried torta di erba in Corsica made with swiss chard and brocciu (ewe cheese) with many wild herbs from the surrounding fragrant hills. Your hortopita reminds me of it. Your video is a beautiful respite from the awful news in the world around us. Grazie.
I so loved seeing the summer footage since I’m freezing my buns off here in southern Greece at the moment! ❄️ Thank you for another beautiful video!
I loved this one so much ❤️! You can tell your grandmother is absolutely beautiful inside and out.
This looks so delicious 😋. The love and care that you put into all of your cooking is so heartwarming. My 22 month old grandson loves to be in the kitchen with me. Who knows, maybe he will make people smile someday just like you do. Cheers to all the Nonnas (Grandmas, YaYas, Omas, etc) out there inspiring their grandchildren! Thank you again for 17 minutes of joy. ✌🏻♥️🥬
You are amazing. You are truly gifted in so many ways and I’m proud of you. I’m new here and Italy is my dream since childhood. I’m so happy i found your channel and will be here catching up and following on with your beautiful home and property. I don’t know how people sent you letters and wedding gifts/cards, i would have but don’t know where to send it. You are a beautiful couple and i wish you many many years of health and happiness.
You make my day so happy , the perfect video and music .Kylie thanks for everything ....
Congratulations Kylie, you are an incredible and talented woman.
As a Greek Italian I loved this video. I have tried most of your recipes so far and they are amazing! Thank you so much for sharing Kylie! I will definitely make your grandmother's recipe one of these days!
Greek Italian you got the best of both worlds!|
Thank you, Kylie, for another beautiful film. Your recipes are absolutely fantastic and the cinematography is superb. Thank you for teaching us the art of living 💖✨
So very kind, Tanya!
I loved to eat Xortopitta as streetfood in Greece . Thanks for sharing the recipe. I will definetly try to make it with a homemade dough 💚. It looks delicious and with the pics and the music makes me dream of Greece. Greetings from northern Germany 🙋🏻♀️
I have never see this before but I am now craving it. I wish I could cook! It looked fantastic,
Kylie, would you ever consider doing a video on your style and where you shop?! Or more day in the life? Beautiful work, I’m a new fan 💕
😊Thankyou for this tradition Your grandmothers Greek pie 🥧 Recipe .It looks really nutritious and tasty with all the wild herbs 🌿.I used to make a spinach pie with extra vegetables it was a favourite with my family ! I Always enjoy your work !😊 cheers from 🇦🇺
That looks ridiculously good. Your culinary expertise always amazes me. Love from Canada.
I loved watching. My mouth was watering as I watched you take a bite. ❤ until next time .
My fave things in a market are veggies and herbs. So envious of those beautiful fresh herbs. They are all medicinal as well. Stay well, Kylie. , Charleen from Arizona.
pure joy love you
Another inspiring video. Thank you.
Many greetings from Greece!!!
Looks delicious! We will your recipe! Thank you Kylie! Hugs from Greece!
This, is happiness. Thank you Kylie for your sense of art, pure beauty and values❤
Sounds Delicious ! Thanks !
Such a Combination of flavors ! Interesting !
Yes!!!! More filling! I make mine with so much.
My favorite..I love any kind of Greek pie!
I echo the accolades of Senza Living on the painstaking passion you put into your cinematography, soundtracks and script content. It is quite exquisite.
This recipe looks amazing. Although the process seems a bit daunting, I hope to try it one day. I am a huge fan of dark and bitter greens and herbs. We call the dark green kale lacinato, dinosaur or "dino" kale in the US.
My Napoletana nonna would frequently cook things found in the woods behind our house in Upstate NY thought to be weeds. Dandelions overrunning our lawn were a hearty lunch. 😁😋 The stalks of a large leaf rhubarb looking plant (but not rhubarb) would be cleaned, tenderized, egged, floured and fried in olive oil. Amazing, bitter, savory and sweet all at once.
Thanks for stirring some special memories of loved ones and good times, Kylie! You give our weekends such a lovely place to start. 🙏🇺🇸❤🇮🇹 Praying for ☮
Thank you so much, Joe!!! 🙏🙏🙏
Love from Switzerland to you and your husband Guido. Ciao Kylie 😍🐞😘
Thank you for the delicious wholesome, healthy recipes the past couple of weeks. So inspiring! I’ve been looking for ways to be more mindful of eating less meat and trying to incorporate more fresh vegetables and fruits, these recipes will help in the process. 🇨🇦❣️🙏🏻
I had no idea about your Greek roots! I am Greek and been in Italian school my whole life, so... That's why I felt connected with you! Well.. that, and your amazing content.. 🙂
Amazing, can't wait to try it
I tried it yesterday. Smell in the kitchen was amazing! As well as the taste! 🤤 Thank You for sharing this recipe with us. 💙
love watching your videos and this time, this is awesome. an incredible beautiful Italian in Greece. my 2 favorite combinations!! was fortunate to live in both countries
So much beauty in this episode!!! This dish looks amazing and I have to say, the beautiful dancing scene at the end was superb! Thanks for sharing and best wishes to you and Guido! You both are amazing together!
I did wonder how many people would watch until the very end. ☺️
wow, unexpected! amazing video as always - I didn't know your grandparents are from Greece!
Thank you, Kylie for once again producing a beautifully photographed video and sharing a delicious looking recipe. You have inspired me to try it, having never made any Greek dishes before. You are my weekly indulgence into a world that I aspire to live in of good healthy food, sunshine, and rural living. Thank you for sharing your adventures. 🙏❤️
This is so kind, Alan. Thank you.
Another recipe video ❤️😘🥰 thank you!
I have always wanted to make the recipe. As always, stunning filmmaking. Thanks, Kylie! The best of UA-cam.
Thank you so much! 😘😘😘
What’s better than a new Kylie video and a cup of coffee on a lazy Saturday morning? Nothing! In a world full of pain and uncertainty, this is just the balm my soul needed. Thank you. ❤️❤️❤️
Kylie, I always know when I see one of your videos pop up I will feel totally chilled watching it. The pie looked beautiful! 🥧 🏞☀️ x😊
Solo per farci evadere da notizie tristi e allarmanti, un profondo grazie. La natura ci dà conforto.
Thank you for this labor of love!
🙏🙏🙏
Your videos are so satisfying and comforting to watch, I always feel like I'm being transported to Italy even though I haven't been there (yet) ❤️
Ricotta with Greek pita? Its like an Italian drink cappuccino after lunch! 🤣🤣🤣
Traditional pita's only with feta cheese 🧀 🤣🤣🤩🤩
Yum! Looks so scrumptious with the light layers of phyllo! Absolutely lovely.... Sweet dancing at the end!!
So beautifully produced, hoping to get to a Greek Island this year. :)
A damp (clean) dishcloth always works to keep the dough from drying out.
Looks delicious. Made with love, both the pie and the video.
Thank you Kylie, i always love your amazing sense of aesthetics in your videos. Your videos don’t leave me feeling used like with other content. It’s just gorgeous and lovely and generous if that makes sense
