As a Serbian language teacher with 20 years of experience, I find it important to introduce my students to the rich culinary culture of Serbia. In this lesson, we will learn vocabulary related to food and drinks in the Serbian language.
Consider exploring these related pages after completing this lesson: Family and Relationships & How to Say Hello and Greetings.
Foods
Serbian cuisine is influenced by Mediterranean and Ottoman cuisines. There are also distinct dishes that are unique to Serbia, such as:
- Ćevapi - minced meat served in pita bread
- Pljeskavica - a type of burger made from beef or pork
- Ajvar - a spread made from roasted red peppers, eggplant, and garlic
- Sarma - cabbage rolls filled with ground meat and rice
- Kajmak - a creamy dairy spread served with bread or meat dishes
Here are some basic words you will need to know when discussing food in Serbian:
