The History of Fillo - Past to Present
Did you know???
Fillo (pronounced Fill-o) comes from the Greek word meaning leaf.
Civilization, fillo is one of our most ancient foods
and – paired with superb local fruits, vegetables,
fish or lean meat – became a staple of the
famed Mediterranean diet.
Every culture –
from Greece to Armenia, Israel,
Turkey, Morocco and beyond – has its own delicious
sweet and savory variations on the theme.
Grandmothers traditionally taught younger
generations the fine art of making fillo…
it requires very few ingredient but a good deal of skill.
Today, however, you don’t need to go to all that trouble – who has the time?
Because the freezer
case has become synonymous with convenience for most families, shoppers
now have the option of choosing from a wide range of ready to bake –
or simply thaw – and serve items. Our fillo products are designed
to help make food marketing easier. The entire product line is completely
natural (preservative free), satisfying both vegetarian and vegan appetites.
