Georgian food (Repulic of)

[Salsailsa (Ailsa Konzelman)]

I’ve been reading a lot about it lately and am interested in doing some cooking. Anybody familiar with it or have any tips?

I lived with a housemate from Georgia but she didn’t do much cooking so I can’t say much about that. But your post made me curious and I came across this website which seems really comprehensive and interesting:

Georgian Recipes

Just the sauces section by itself is worth a look.

Yes, I was looking at some sites and the cuisine is quite interesting. Different ingredients like " Marigold" for example. What piqued my interest was a new Georgian restaurant that opened near where my mother live and where I grew up-

I’d like to try some stuff. Thanks for posting your links and responding.

I thought some of the mushroom dishes looked nice because I like mushrooms and also the eggs with garlic.

I know nothing about Georgian cuisine, but had to go find this article to read it again (it’s fascinating):

Very entertaining article, Elsie! Thanks for sharing. Some very vivid images painted by it!

It certainly is a vast contrast to the wedding I attended in Calgary over the weekend.

Food involved catering by a food truck.

Good food and an open bar were the most important things for my wedding

I make lobio satsivi, green beans with walnuts, a few times a year.

I have also ordered Lobiani, a red kidney bean-filled pastry, in NYC before.

I love vegetables. Ideas for a vegetarian dinner. Not a big production .

I plan to make more Georgian veg recipes this summer. I made Georgian green beans (lobio satsivi ) last year. I’ll find a recipe. https://spicetrekkers.com/recipes/pkhalis-trio-vegetable-and-nut-terrines

I made Khachapuri, following the recipe in my Depanneur Cookbook

and Beef Kharcho, using 2 online recipes as inspiration.

I also served basmati rice on the side.

I like the Please to the Table cookbook. It’s not strictly Georgian; it’s more a survey of the foods of the republics of the FSU. I love the khachapuri recipe, which is a different style than the adjaruli (looks like a boat) posted here.
