Create with Filo!

Greek International Food Market Giveaway Launches New Family Cooking Adventures

Create with Filo!

With families spending more time in the kitchen, the Greek International Food Market, West Roxbury, is offering a fun new way to innovate and share recipes.

They are launching a Create with Filo program to engage everyone, from toddlers to teens, and connect with other “foodie” families, while building memories.

As part of the program, they will be giving away samples of Zagorisio filo in family cooking “kits”.

Filo is a ready-to-use (after being defrosted) very thin unleavened dough traditionally layered and brushed with oil or butter to create pastries.

The Zagorisio filo can be used for appetizers, main courses, pies/desserts and more.

“Filo dough offers unlimited possibilities for creativity; it can be layered, rolled, and folded,” said Katerina Iliades, founder and CEO, Greek International Food Market.

“It offers the kind of tactile experience that children love.

We’re excited to encourage them to explore with this delicious Greek classic.”

As families who are cooking three times a day seek out new dishes, the Create with Filo program provides a new Mediterranean experience and outlook, too.

To begin that “journey,” families can pick up their free kits ($4.49-$5.99 value) from the Greek International Food Market, 5204 Washington Street, West Roxbury.

The market is open Monday through Saturday from 10 am – 6 pm for takeout and curbside pickup.

The kits will be available until the end of May (or while supplies last).

As families develop new recipes, they are encouraged to share them and include photos and videos, which the market may post on their website and Facebook page (one per family).

By mid-June, the market will post several favorites for all to try and savor.

“As the mother of two young children, I’m especially excited to learn about recipes created by our youngest family members,” said Katerina.

“Growing up, I loved baking with filo dough and want others to have that same sense of joy.”
