Chef, food blogger, and cookbook author Peter Minaki originally learned to make phyllo pastry from his mother. He now shares her technique for making a master phyllo dough, along with various of methods for making the paper-thing phyllo layers. Each participant gets to hand stretch their own dough, and use it to craft an individual spiral cheese pie to take home. In addition, there is a shared lunch of spanakopita freshly made in class, alongside fresh romaine salad, and a creamy, custardy phyllo bougatsa for dessert served with greek coffee.
