Hellenic Post issued two special EUROMED stamps that feature some traditional Greek dishes. Greece’s offering to this year’s philatelic completion with the theme of “Traditional gastronomy in the Mediterranean” includes traditional dishes with pure Mediterranean ingredients that are found in abundance in this country and are cooked in every Greek home.
For its participation in EUROMED 2020, Hellenic Post has prepared a feast of wild greens pie, octopus, lamb, and moussaka. Wild green pie is a Greek spinach pie made with traditional homemade phyllo loaded with various greens like silverbeet & herbs. Octopus and lamb are great favorites in Greek cuisine as an appetizer or meze, side dish, or main dish. And, of course, moussaka (mousaka) - one of the most popular dishes in Greece, served in almost every tavern and prepared in every household on special occasions and big family meals.
