More Bulgarian Food
Forgive me if this sounds like an obsession. It is. I have to tell you about the “Chopska salad”. I have only seen the spelling in Cyrillic so I don’t know if I’ve spelled it correctly. This is chopped tomatoes & cucumbers and green onions with a little bit of lettuce sometimes. It is coated with the Bulgarian white farm cheese. You can put a little oil & vinegar on it if you wish; but it is not necessary. The Bulgarians drink a little bit of Rakia with the salad.
Rakia is a very strong wine or brandy. I am not sure which it is. The closest thing I have had to it is grappa. It tastes a little better than the grappa. The best thing about the Bulgarian products is that they don’t come from huge factories. Most of the food is grown on private farms. The process is mostly organic with all of the waste going back into the compost pile and eventually into the soil so that the dirt on each farm develops its own “personality”. Forgive me for not writing more. Breakfast is ready.
