Fillo (or “phyllo”) actually means ”leaf” in Greek. The flaky, flavorful, layered sheets of tissue-thin pastry are best known for use in traditional Greek and Mediterranean dishes such as baklava, spanakopita and apple strudel. But light, elegant fillo adds a sophisticated taste and texture to almost any dish you can imagine – from appetizers and snacks to main dishes and desserts.
