Cuisine of Montenegro<\/strong> for many centuries it has absorbed the traditions of Italian, Hungarian, Turkish and Austrian cuisine, but the basis has remained unchanged. Montenegrin food itself is divided geographically: the coastal zone, where fish and seafood are mainly preferred, and the northern part of the country, where meat and dairy dishes predominate. It is also worth noting that Montenegrins love healthy food - their herds graze all day in the meadows and no one irrigates the land with chemicals or fertilizers. Therefore, the food here is environmentally friendly and healthy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here is a basic list of what you should definitely try in Montenegro:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Prosciutto (dried-smoked ham) and cheese from Negushi<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

One of the most delicious national dishes of Montenegro is smoked ham, or locally called \u2013 prosciutto<\/strong>. Prosciutto is eaten with bread and cheese, as well as some fruits. Be sure to try the prosciutto.
Also very tasty sausages<\/strong> and the famous Negush cheese (in some of its manifestations it resembles cheese). And sausages, and prosciutto, and cheese - come from a small village. Negushi<\/a>. This is a colorful alpine village, where there is absolutely no production, which has a beneficial effect on its ecology; in addition to meat products, in Njegusi you can buy homemade wine and honey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Kaymak (soft white cheese)<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

In Montenegro, various types are very tasty. cheese<\/strong> and cheese. The king of dairy products is kaimak<\/strong>, which is the top layer of baked milk.

3. Chevapi (meat sausages) or splash<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The most common meat dish in Montenegro \u2013 cevapi<\/strong> \u2013 are minced meat sausages. They're served in every cafe and restaurant. You can buy \u010devapi as a pre-cooked product at any supermarket or "mesar" (Montenegrin butcher's shop) and cook them yourself at home, or you can have them grilled and smoky right there (in Montenegro, this is called "made on a ro\u0161tilje"). Cooking any meat on a ro\u0161tilje is free; in Montenegrin mesars, this service is free! Pleskavitsa<\/strong> \u2013 are the same as cevapi, but in the form of a large flatbread.
Must try \u201cmeso ispod sacha\u201d<\/strong> \u2013 pot meat; very tender meat with vegetables. \u2013 is a pot used to cover the meat, and the meat itself is placed on the coals, so the meat is not in the pot, but underneath it! Hence the name.

4. Vranac and Krstac wine (red and white wine), rakija (local vodka made from plums or grapes) and coffee<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Glory to the Montenegrin winemakers was brought by Vranac grapes, which are cultivated everywhere in order to produce the dry red wine of the same name. For 3 euros in the supermarket you can buy wine Vranac<\/strong> Produced by the Planta\u017ee company, Vranac, a house wine, is available at markets, other private sources, and in some restaurants, starting from \u20ac5 per liter. Planta\u017ee's Vranac has repeatedly received acclaim from European wine critics. The Krstac variety is also worth a try; it's a dry white wine used to make not only wine but also rakija!
The broad Russian soul demands hotter drinks! And for this occasion, Montenegro has something to offer: \u2013 homemade moonshine made from white grapes, which is called here rakia<\/strong>In Montenegro, moonshine is also made from pears, quince, plums, honey, and so on. \u2013 All these varieties of moonshine are named accordingly. "crushka"<\/strong>, Dunya<\/strong>, plum brandy<\/strong> and honey cake<\/strong>Be sure to try and bring home rakia from Montenegro as a souvenir \u2013 and let your loved ones share your joy!
In addition to wine and rakia, in Montenegro, also try the local Nikshichko beer<\/strong> and lemonade<\/strong> made from freshly squeezed juice \u2013, all this is very refreshing in the heat.
If you came to Montenegro in winter and want to warm up, you will like a harmless hot chocolate<\/strong>inexpensive and very tasty!
Excursion to the drinks of Montenegro is completed cafe<\/strong> \u2013 is what they call coffee in Montenegro. Montenegrins love coffee, and the traditional way of preparing coffee in Montenegro, \u2013, is Turkish coffee (a legacy of Turkish expansion). It's made in a cezve, often with sugar added during the brewing process, leaving a thick sediment of coffee grounds at the bottom. Of course, you can also order a classic cappuccino or espresso.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Fish (trout, horade, sea bass)<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

On the coast, a must try fish<\/strong>. In some restaurants, the fish on the menu is unnamed and is divided into categories: 1, 2 and 3. Fish is divided into categories depending on the rarity and size: the larger, the higher the class and the more expensive the fish. Fish is measured in kilograms. Mussels stewed in white wine, large shrimps, lobsters and octopuses are very tasty. Risotto with seafood<\/strong> \u2013 is simply finger-licking good!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

8. "Tulumba"<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Tulumbu<\/strong> You can find it in any store or bakery. These "things" come in various forms and fillings, but the essence is the same: baked goods soaked in honey syrup. It's a very sweet Turkish dish; you can't eat much of it, but it's so delicious! Besides tulumba, they also serve baklava, sherbets, halva, and so on. There are also Eastern desserts that can only be found in the south of the country, i.e., on the Bar and Ulcinj Rivieras. For example, the dessert \u2013 "kadaif"<\/strong> (let's just say: for an amateur!) Often served with coffee or tea "palachinka"<\/strong> \u2013 pancakes with different fillings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In terms of nutritional value, only a hamburger can compete with "gyros"<\/strong> \u2013 is a kind of shawarma, but of higher quality and with more meat :) It costs 3-4 euros, and the feeling of hunger after such a filling \u201csnack\u201d will return to you only the next day!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
