Lithuania

Country - Lithuania

Cuisine Description - Each of the five regions of Lithuania has developed a unique cooking style. As every region has been influenced by another country, there are dishes that are typical only for one of the parts of the country. The climate does not vary very much, across the country. Therefore, this cannot be a cause of the diversity. However, in each region certain ingredients are used. People who live in a mountainous area are famous for the pancakes, as well as for the dishes that are based on cheese. On the other hand, people from the North Western part of the country prepare their sour butter and gruels in a specific manner. Mushrooms, Buckwheat and potatoes are the main ingredients used by the Dzukai. In the South Western part of the country, people prefer smoked meat, cepelinai and sausages. People from the coastal regions use fish as the main ingredient of dishes. Copyright Recipes Wiki
