Have you ever tasted authentic Bulgarian food? It is hearty, tasty and fresh. Can you make their recipes at home? Yes, you can, with this concise cookbook! Bulgaria is known for the quality of its dairy products and vegetables, and it boasts a wide variety of mild spices. They often use beef and pork in their main meal recipes, although they do have some seafood dishes. They enjoy dishes made with lamb, as well.
