One thing Croatian’s are good at is eating. Another thing we do well is cooking. And in general, we are definitely able to brag a bit about our cuisine. On the Adriatic coast our seafood is like candy, and inland we eat heartily, but one thing is for certain and that is we know a thing or two when it comes to food.

Comfort food is defined as “food which provides a nostalgic or sentimental value to the consumer, and is often characterized by its high caloric nature, high carbohydrate level, and simple preparation. The nostalgia may be specific to either the individual or a specific culture.” Croatian comfort food is found in our most traditional dishes, the ones that taste like home, the holidays, and that with each bite brings us closer to that homeland feeling.
