Experience the true, bold flavors of a traditional village-style Greek Salad (Horiatiki) with our carefully curated collection. This premium kit provides everything you need to recreate an authentic Greek culinary masterpiece at home.
🏷️ The Kit Includes (3 Essential Components)
The centerpiece of any authentic Horiatiki. This barrel-aged Feta is crafted using traditional methods with 100% sheep and goat's milk, delivering the distinct, tangy flavor that only genuine PDO-certified Feta can provide. Rich, creamy, and perfectly sharp.
The connoisseur's choice. This high-phenolic EVOO delivers a potent, peppery finish from elevated Oleocanthal content—the hallmark of premium Greek olive oil. Perfect for both dressing your salad and as a luxurious finishing drizzle over the Feta. This certified high-polyphenol oil brings restaurant-quality flavor and powerful health benefits to your table.
The essential seasoning. An aromatic blend featuring classic Greek oregano (Rigani), thyme, and sea salt—perfect for sprinkling liberally over the vegetables and Feta to capture that authentic taverna flavor.
📝 How to Make the Perfect Horiatiki (Step-by-Step)
-
Prep the Salad: Combine chunky-chopped tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, and authentic Kalamata olives in a large bowl.
-
The Dressing: Whisk together the Sparta Gourmet Premiere EVOO with a splash of red wine vinegar and a pinch of salt. Pour over the vegetables and gently toss to coat.
-
The Feta: Place a large, thick slice of Roussas Barrel-Aged Feta on top of the salad. Important: Do not dice the Feta—keep it whole!
-
The Finish: Drizzle additional Sparta Gourmet Premiere EVOO directly over the Feta. The high Oleocanthal will bloom beautifully with the Feta's sharpness, creating that signature peppery kick.
-
The Seasoning: Sprinkle the Eliovi Greek Herb Dipping Blend generously over the Feta and salad.
-
Serve: Enjoy immediately with crusty bread to soak up the delicious juices!
