English influence on Greek food
Published November 25, 2009 by Rachel Laudan
So pleased to have Sam Sotiropoulos join the debate about whether Greek food owes anything to the British.
Be sure to check his comments about how kumquats and probably potatoes came to Greece thanks to the British. I await posts about some dishes (other than pudding) that came with or without these foodstuffs. And candied kumquats, I can’t wait.
And be sure to check out his blog Greek Food Recipes and Reflections while you are at it.

Rachel, it is my pleasure to take part in this discussion. Thanks for the warm welcome. I will do what I can to assist in dispelling the misconceptions and misrepresentations that surround the question of English influence on Greek cuisine.
