Salad with Beetroots and Mushrooms

Peel the potatoes, cut them into thin slices and spread in the pan. Pour the tahini oil on the potatoes, along with dry chopped onion, oregano, green pepper and a little mustard. Put them all together and mix well. Pour a little lemon and put the food in moderate oven to bake approximately for 50 minutes. During baking, cut ripe tomatoes in slices and when the food is cooked, remove from oven and spread over the slices of the tomatoes. Also, grate soy cheese and pour on top of the tomatoes. Put the pan again in the oven for another ten minutes to brown.

Mix both two kinds of the cream cheese “anthotiro” and “manouri”. Also mix the milk with the corn flour. Then, mix the eggs with the sugar and the 4 vanillas. Finally, mix all of the ingredients mentioned above. Put half of the phyllos in the baking pan and add the mixture. Put the rest of the phyllos and carve them. Bake it at 200 degrees for 35-40 minutes. Sprinkle it with the caster sugar and the cinnamon.

As we know from the writings in the Old Testament, wine acquired distinctive symbolism. After the flood, Noah planted and managed to create his own vineyard. In Exodus, God gave a promise to bless three significant goods for human life: bread, water and wine. The lands and climate in the regions of Hebron and Palestine were conducive for the cultivation of vineyards. Viticulture flourished in a short time and gained great demand, as people cultivated their vines to produce the blessed wine. David hymns wine through his psalms, saying: "And wine that makes glad the heart of man..." (Psalm 104:15) and "You have put gladness in my heart, More than in the season that their grain and wine increased" (Psalm 4:7).
