Learn the secrets of the Cretan Diet
Nykterida restaurant with a long experience in quality cooking and traditional flavors gives a chance to all foreign visitors to learn the secrets of the Cretan gastronomic heritage.
Restaurant Organizes “Interactive Cocking Lessons of Traditional Cretan Dishes” for small and large groups in English Language.
Each group will get to choose, prepare and finally eat all dishes prepared after the local wine tasting at the restaurant’s cellar. Participation, food selection and Date reservation shall be done at least a week in advance.
Cretan Diet is a perfect sample of Mediterranean diet which was characterized as an “intangible cultural heritage” from Unesco.
Archeological excavations in Minoan Palace discovered elements reveal that the main nutritional ingredients are still the same and unalterable. Big stoneware jars with olive oil, honey, grain and pulses combined with the murals where Cretan wild greens and herbs are depicted, suggest that fundamental nutrition is cherished.
People of the island use almost exclusively olive oil as a main ingredient combined with wild greens, vegetables, pulses and less often meat, fish, cheese and of course always with wine!
