Taste the Slavic delicacies – Taste the Shopska salad from Bulgaria
The rich cultural culinary heritage and cooking traditions as components of intangible cultural heritage co-create the contemporary image of healthy Bulgarian cooking. Bulgarian salads are an essential part of the so-called “Bulgarian diet”. Served as starters, they are often accompanied by rakia, a Bulgarian version of slivovitz plum brandy. Bulgarian salads are both hearty and large and can be enjoyed as a meal in themselves. Shopska salad is characteristic for the Sofia region and is one of the most emblematic Bulgarian dishes today, famous the world over.
