About Mia Kouppa
We’re Helen and Billie, two Greek-Canadian sisters and the creators of Mia Kouppa. Since 2016, we’ve been sharing the traditional Greek recipes we grew up with, many passed down from our parents, George and Dimitra, who were born and raised in Messinia, Greece. We cook, test and carefully measure these family recipes so that the food we grew up loving can be recreated successfully in your kitchen.
Mia Kouppa means “one cup,” a nod to the way our parents cooked, using whatever cup happened to be in the cupboard instead of standard measuring cups. We created Mia Kouppa to preserve their recipes, traditions and stories, while turning those instinctive measurements into reliable recipes that home cooks can follow.
