@@authenticfoodquest I’m not currently, I’m just trying to learn more about different countries food and culture and this was very helpful! But I’d love to visit!
@@courtclimbs Very cool! Love your project to learn about different countries food and culture, indeed food and culture are very much intertwined. Montenegro is a beautiful tiny country and has great mountain ranges, as I see you're into climbing!
No, NOT OLIVE OIL please!! No water? Oregano needs to be dried not fresh And steps order is important! Authentic chimichurri: - 1-2 tablespoon dried oregano. - 1 tablespoon sweet pepper flakes >> it can be hot but traditional chimichurri uses the sweet pepper flakes version which can't be found in every country. - 2 tablespoon warm water Mix until you create a paste like texture. - Add 1 tablespoon of salt and pepper, mix. - Add 2-3 tablespoon chopped parsley - Add 1 minced garlic clove - Add 1-2 tablespoon red wine vinegar >> important, it has to be red wine vinegar. - Add 1-2 tablespoons of sunflower oil >> or any other neutral oil, not olive oil or other flavoured oils. Mix all and leave in the fridge for at least 24 hours.
Thanks for stopping by! This recipe has been provided to us made by Mirta an Argentinian chef, yes you can use dried oregano but fresh is much better, and quality of spices in the US is not on par with anything you can find in Argentina. Also extra virgin olive oil is the way to go, sunflower oil (used in many processed good) is the worst oil to use in my opinion...
I tried the first time as the same recipe the texture became harsh The 2nd time i tried that recipe but i removed the cream BELIEVE me the result were just WOW it was like Nestlé

Hey there, Thanks for stopping by! Our recipe maker from Eastern Europe didn't use any but indeed we learned from our Bulgarian friends that different spices can be used and some people do add cumin. It's a matter of taste and preference I guess 😋 Enjoy!
Yeah, Im bulgarian and theres litery many changes you can do and still call it liutenitca. SometimesI even use pumpkin insteed red peppers if I have not... The taste is similar and the color a bit more orange, but it still called lutenitca 😂😂😂 Personally I prefer with cumin, it gives peculiar flavor. And yes, with pumpkin is good. But better with peppers 😂😊
I asked Chat GPT how dolce de leche is eaten and I got this answer: "Dulce de leche is a sweet caramel-like sauce made from condensed milk. It can be enjoyed in various ways: spread on toast or crackers, drizzled over ice cream, used as a filling for pastries, or *simply eaten by the spoonful* . It adds a rich, sweet flavor to desserts and snacks." The one in bold letters is my favourite. I'll do it as _postre_ (dessert) or when I need a quick snack.
