Taste of Georgia (Part II)

As I wrote in previous post, Georgian cuisine is very diverse and actually, it’s very hard to decide about which dishes to talk about. Each of them has its own typical taste and I think there is no one on earth who will not find his favorite dish from Georgian cuisine.


Satsivi is among top dishes in Georgia. Satsivi is one of the main dishes on every feast. It is usually made with these ingredients: turkey or chicken, walnuts, onions, fenugreek, garlic, saffron, cinnamon, vinegar, red pepper..

Elardgi and Ghomi – they are made with coarse corn flour (cornmeal) and fine corn flour. Ghomi is used as a bread. Elardgi is a version of Ghomi but with melted sulguni cheese in it and I think it is a must taste dish in Georgia.

Chakapuli  - most popular in the springtime. A delicious lamb stew, made with dry white wine, green plums, tarragon leaves, onions, and pepper.

Kharcho - Georgian beef soup. It is made with meat, seasoned with garlic, onions, khmeli suneli, nuts coriander.

Churchkhela and Gozinakhi – Georgian sweets. Churchkhela is made with walnuts or sometimes with almonds and hazel nuts. On a long string they put nuts and then dip it in concentrated fresh grape juice, which dries into a gelatin-like coating around the nuts. Gozinakhi is a must sweet on a festive table of new year. Preperation is very simple and ingredients are walnuts, honey and sugar.
