So on the Web at large, fasolada is more popular than the other spellings combined; in Greek, φασολάδα is 40 times more common than φασουλάδα. In books, fassolada comes a close second. In Greek dictionaries (Babiniotis and Andriotis), φασολάδα is the main entry; φασουλάδα is listed as "more vernacular" (λαϊκότερο). So I'm moving to the most common English spelling, which is also the standard Greek spelling, fasolada. --Macrakis 15:24, 7 February 2007 (UTC)
Related dishes
[edit]I think that the other dishes have little in common with Greek fasolada. Only we use tomato juice, carrots and onion. The other food (fasulye etc.) are different I think. --79.166.31.123 (talk) 15:19, 13 December 2010 (UTC)
- Different in what way? How does, for example, this Turkish recipe differ from fasolada? --Macrakis (talk) 15:42, 13 December 2010 (UTC)
Pyanopsia
[edit]Article refers to the stew prepared for the Pyanopsia festival, but I have been able to find no reliable source connecting this stew with the modern fasolada. There are some obvious similarities (both use beans), and some obvious differences (the ancient stew included grains, and used Old World beans (fava, lentils, etc.) vs. fasolada which uses New World beans). In what way is the Pyanopsia sacrifice more like fasolada then like lentil soup, chickpea soup, etc.? Bean stews/soups are after all found in many many cuisines. --Macrakis (talk) 22:37, 23 February 2015 (UTC)
User:109.242.110.93, the sources you've supplied do not connect the ancient dish with the modern. Can you find better sources? --Macrakis (talk) 23:17, 23 February 2015 (UTC)
It's been 3+ years that this claim was added by an anon, and no sources have been found connecting the ancient pyanopsia with the modern fasolada, so I have removed the comment about pyanopsia. --Macrakis (talk) 16:42, 30 October 2018 (UTC)
