About Hortopita
Hortopita is a traditional Greek dish that celebrates the rich, earthy flavors of wild greens and herbs. Typically encased in flaky phyllo pastry, this savory pie features a medley of foraged greens like spinach, chicory, and dandelion, often paired with aromatic additions such as dill, parsley, and green onions. Occasionally, feta cheese is included for a creamy and tangy boost. Hortopita is high in vitamins, fiber, and antioxidants thanks to the nutrient-dense greens, making it a wholesome choice for boosting overall health. However, its phyllo crust, while delicate and delicious, adds refined carbohydrates and fat, particularly if butter or oil is used generously between the layers. A staple of Mediterranean cuisine, Hortopita reflects the region’s emphasis on fresh, simple ingredients that are as nutritious as they are flavorful. Perfect for vegetarians, it offers a balance of taste and health-conscious eating that aligns with the principles of the Mediterranean diet.
