DALMATIAN CUISINE
The cuisine of
Dalmatia
and the islands follows the trend of modern nutritional norms.
The brief
thermal preparation of
foodstuffs (mainly boiling or grilling) and plenty of fish,
olive oil,
vegetables and self-sown herbs found near the sea
is why this cuisine is
considered to be very healthy.
Dalmatian wines, like olive
oil and salted olives, have been highly esteemed since ancient times, which the
present names of some of the indigenous grape sorts reveal (Grk : Greek, from
the island of Korcula; Prc from the island of Hvar). Famous wines include Dingac
and Postup from the Peljesac Peninsula; Babic from Primosten; Vugava and Plancic
from the island of Hvar... then there are Posip and Grk from Korcula; Marastina
from the island of Lastovo; Malmsey from Dubrovnik, etc., and also Prosecco (a
sweet dessert wine), the very strong grape (loza) and herbal brandies (travarica,
grapes with medicinal herbs) and liqueurs (Maraschino, Vlahov).
Although even today every
area has its own way of preparing certain dishes, the cuisine of the islands
represents a separate world, their distinguishing features having been
discovered only recently, such as the cuisine of the islands of Hvar, Korcula,
Brac (vitalac, a dish made from lamb offal wrapped in lamb gut and
spike-roasted), Vis (spike-roasted pilchards, as during the Ancient Greek
period; flat cake with pilchards from Komiza and Vis, related to the modern-day
pizza). Fresh sea fish (dog's tooth, gilthead, sea-bass, grouper, mackerel,
pilchards) grilled, boiled or marinated; then there are mollusks (squid,
cuttlefish, octopus), crustaceans (shrimps, lobsters) and shellfish (mussels,
oysters, date-shells, ana-j) boiled in a fish stew or as a risotto. Of the meat
dishes, prosciutto is unarguably unrivalled - pork leg smoked and dried in the
bora (from Drnis), served with dry, mostly sheep's cheese (famous sorts of
cheese are those from Pag and
Dubrovnik
)
and salted green and black olives, capers and pickled onions. Lamb is also very
highly valued, especially boiled or baked on an open fire (Franjevacka begovica
from Visovac, or lopiz from the island of Iz); also, dried mutton (kastradina),
roast beef, Dalmatian stew (pasticada) with gnocchi, offered by many
restaurants.
Lightly boiled
vegetables are also favorite dishes (Swiss chard with potatoes,
tomato sauce) often a mixture of cultivated and self-sown vegetables, spiced
with olive oil and wine vinegar, or served with meat (manestra - pasta with
minced meat; arambasici - stuffed vine leaves). Regions with an abundance of
fresh water are famous for their frog, eel and river crab dishes (the Neretva
valley, Trilj and the Cetina basin). Typical Dalmatian desserts win the heart
with their simplicity. The most usual ingredients include Mediterranean fruit,
dried figs and raisins, almonds, honey, eggs (rafioli, mandulat, smokvenjak, the
gingerbread biscuits from the
island
of
Hvar
- rozata).
