The location of my country and the whole of these food-passionate countries and their inhabitants,is in the middle of an explosion of cuisines that combine in the most delicious ways that only the ancient gods of Olympus could have put them together.
The region spans a wide variety of cultures with distinct cuisines most notably the greek, italian, slavic and spanish ways of cooking
The sole impact of the Mediterranean climate on the creation of this type of cuisine mean that they are beyond the core trio of oil, bread, and wine.Mediterranean cuisine encompasses the ways that these and other ingredients, including meat, are dealt with in the kitchen, whether they are health-giving or not.
In my home country of Macedonia these weird combinations of half oriental and half Slavic dishes are the main aorta of the type of diet of its inhabitants. The act of preparing these dishes in my country and all of the mentioned countries summarises the love and depth with which these people and their cuisines are interwoven within the invisible strings of tradition, family and love of food.
My job ... my goal with the creation of this blog will be to bring these ancient traditions of preparing common spanish, italian, turkish, greek and all around Balkan dishes, within the grasp of the intrigued connoisseurs all around the world,
and maybe just for a slight moment bring a little taste, smell and music of these common household kitchen`s from the passionate food loving countries of Southern Europe.
