When you rent a villa in Montenegro and settle in comfortably, one of the favorite questions "what would be delicious to eat" comes up. The good news is that Montenegro has a rich and varied gastronomic offer, and the bad news is that if you decide to try all our specialties, you will surely be a few kilograms heavier when you return from vacation. But don't let your weight stop you from enjoying the most delicious meals you've ever tasted. In this text, we will describe some of them, in order to at least bring the flavors a little closer, which will be a real rhapsody for all your senses.

A tradition called kačamak
Kačamak is a traditional Montenegrin dish that does not require many ingredients, but it requires the skill to mix everything well and "beat" to get the right texture. Montenegrins distinguish between corn and white kačamak, depending on whether corn or wheat flour is used. The sauce is made from cream and cheese, that way we get a creamy kačamak that goes perfectly with a cup of homemade sour milk. Kačamak is not an ordinary food, it is a symbol of culture and tradition that is passed down from generation to generation.

Ancient dish - cicvara
Cicvara is another dish from the Montenegrin tradition, and the main ingredients in this dish are: fat, cream, cheese and flour. It is considered an extremely high-calorie dish, and is traditionally prepared for Christmas lunch. In Montenegro, it has become a symbol for family gatherings, so it is hard to imagine a gathering for any occasion without cicvara on the table.

The queen of tradition – lamb under the comb
Montenegrins have always been considered good and hospitable hosts. Therefore, it is not surprising that for special occasions, lamb is served under the sach, which, when the weather permits, is prepared outside. The unique method of preparation, which involves slow roasting, gives the lamb a specific taste, making it a delicacy for all meat lovers. Sach is a special lid made of iron or steel that covers the meat and thus remains juicy inside, while a crispy crust is formed on the outside.

We have singled out three dishes that are part of tradition and that are on the table of every Montenegrin household. Of course, this is only a part of the delicious dishes that you will try with us. Montenegro is also known for “Njeguška pršuta”, which is dried exclusively on beech wood, and is served as an appetizer with homemade cheese and brandy. Also, be sure to try the pancakes with honey, which are most often served for breakfast. And an indispensable dish that you definitely have to try is the pie, which is made from homemade crusts and different sweet and savory fillings.
