Why cooks start here

Maroulosalata is cooked the way home kitchens across Greece cooks it — olive oil used without counting, salt judged by hand, and lemon always within reach. This is the home version, written down the way a Greek family cook actually puts it on the table.

Maroulosalata is a refreshing Greek salad made with crisp romaine hearts and fragrant dill, tossed with a generous splash of olive oil and a squeeze of lemon juice. It's a staple in Greek households, where ingredients are added by feel rather than measure, creating a dish that is both simple and deeply satisfying. This salad is enjoyed throughout Greece, often served as a starter or alongside grilled meats. The flavors are bright and clean, with the lemon juice providing a tangy contrast to the rich olive oil, while the dill and spring onions add fresh, herbal notes. It's a dish that captures the essence of Greek home cooking.
