Book of traditional recipes of domestic Serbian cuisine

The tradition of Serbian cuisine is very old. One of the oldest Serbian cookbooks was the Serbian cookbook of the hieromonk of the Krušedol monastery, Jerota Draganović, printed in 1855 in the Slavic-Serbian language. And one of the most learned people at the end of the 19th and beginning of the 20th century, Sima Trojanović (ethnologist), in 1896 published the book Old Serbian Foods and Drinks.

The list of such old collections of recipes, cookbooks, books of customs is quite long. These books represent our basic motivation and driving force to start and finish this project, with the basic idea: to preserve from oblivion a part of the culinary and cultural heritage of our ancestors.

In this book, readers will be able to find many old dishes, which today are on the verge of being forgotten, which can very rarely be ordered in restaurants, and which are rarely prepared in the family circle. The book will be printed in Serbian and English.

The project of collecting traditional recipes and publishing the book Traditional recipes of domestic Serbian cuisine, was supported by the Serbian Chamber of Commerce.
