Fancy Peasant | Limited Edition Glass Longevity Set
At Fancy Peasant, we're bridging two worlds: the elevated and the humble. Our name itself captures our unique approach—bringing clean, premium ingredients together with accessible, simple peasant recipes that have stood the test of time.
Fancy Peasant was founded by first-generation Greek-American actor Anastasia Ganias-Gellin as the go-to destination for clean, simple, and wildly medicinal Greek pantry essentials. The brand's journey began with Liquid Gold, an organically grown, 100% Koroneiki Greek extra virgin olive oil that serves as the foundation for Anastasia's longevity recipes and has since expanded to include raw, unfiltered non-GMO Vinegars and clean, handpicked Greek Mountain Oregano Salts, with more on the horizon.
Born from the loss of her father after his battle with chronic lymphocytic leukemia, Anastasia discovered that sharing her family's Greek peasant recipes offered not just healing, but a powerful way to honor his memory. Each product embodies the philosophy of her father's birthplace, Vavouri, Greece, where food is medicine and simple living reigns supreme. The brand's signature olive oil, hand-picked in Lechania, Greece, and cold-pressed within hours, represents the original "superfood"—a pure, antioxidant-rich elixir packed with anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer properties that have sustained generations. Fancy Peasant is a vibrant community that celebrates Greek wisdom, helping modern families embrace the healing power of clean, traditional ingredients through simple, nourishing recipes.
At Fancy Peasant, we're bridging two worlds: the elevated and the humble. Our name itself captures our unique approach—bringing clean, premium ingredients together with accessible, simple peasant recipes that have stood the test of time. We believe that nutritious cooking shouldn't be complicated or intimidating, but rather a joyful journey that connects us to ancient wisdom and modern wellness.
At the heart of our offerings is our exceptional Greek extra virgin olive oil—a true "everything oil" designed to replace every other oil in your kitchen. Distinguished by its high polyphenolic content, remarkably high smoke point, and low acidity, this incredibly pure and potent elixir eliminates the need for potentially harmful seed oils, which are often highly processed and can contribute to inflammation. While many kitchens are stocked with multiple oils for different purposes, our olive oil's versatility means it can handle everything from high-heat cooking to finishing dishes, all while delivering superior nutritional benefits.
Through our direct-to-consumer platform and 200+ retailers nationwide including Erewhon, specialty grocery stores, and farms nationwide, we're making traditional Greek pantry essentials accessible to home cooks everywhere. Our founder, Anastasia, shares multiple longevity recipes weekly through Instagram, our newsletter, and our e-commerce platform, demonstrating how a few high-quality ingredients can transform everyday meals into nourishing experiences.
Our collaborations with renowned restaurant groups showcase the versatility and excellence of our products. March 2024 marked Fancy Peasant's first global collaboration with PLANTA restaurant group, featuring our products across all 15 locations in the US and Canada. The partnership included a dedicated feature menu of dishes inspired by and incorporating Fancy Peasant products, reaching over 550,000 people through PLANTA's organic marketing channels. This summer, we continued our momentum by bringing a taste of Greece to the Hamptons through an exclusive collaboration with the renowned Duryea's restaurant group. Our Mediterranean-inspired luncheon demonstrated how our premium ingredients can elevate both traditional Greek recipes and contemporary coastal cuisine, creating an unforgettable dining experience that transported guests to the sun-drenched shores of the Mediterranean.
For the holiday season, we're thrilled to introduce our Limited Edition Glass Longevity Set—a thoughtfully curated collection perfect for the wellness enthusiast. This sustainable, fully recyclable set includes our premium products housed in beautiful glass vessels, alongside our first-ever Fancy Peasant cookbook featuring exclusive recipes. It's more than just a gift; it's an invitation to embrace the healing power of Greek cuisine and the joy of cooking with intention.
Through our products, recipes, and experiences, we're fostering a community that honors traditional Greek wisdom while meeting the needs of modern, health-conscious home cooks. Join us in discovering how simple ingredients, prepared with care and knowledge, can transform not just your meals, but your entire approach to nourishing yourself and your loved ones.
