The ancient Greeks savored combinations of nuts and fruits with sweeteners like honey and petimezi (grape molasses). However, in the latter years, when sugar was more readily available, that syrupy preserves of fruit, rinds, nuts, and sometimes vegetables became well known and part of the Greek culinary experience.
