Azerbejdžanska Kuhinja

About Azerbejdžanska Kuhinja Android App

Azerbejdžan je zemlja sa veoma lepom prirodom, neverovatno zanimljivim istorijsko-arheološkim spomenicima, originalnom kulturom i tradicijom. Delom tradicije se smatra i nacionalna kuhinja, koja je, po mom mišljenju, jedna od najinteresantnijih na Istoku. Nacionalna kuhinja bilo koje zemlje je njeno lice. Kroz nju se vide ne samo gastronomske specifičnosti već i karakter, temperament i mentalitet jednog naroda.
U azerbejdžanskoj kuhinji se mogu naći sličnosti sa tradicijama drugih naroda u svetu. Ali, s druge strane, azerbejdžanska kuhinja ima svoj identitet i kolorit. Jela naše zemlje su raznolika, kao i njeni pejzaži.
Glavne komponente azerbejdžanske nacionalne kuhinje određuju se prirodnim uslovima u zemlji. Planinska, morska i suptropska klima dozvolili su široku primenu jagnjetine, govedine, živine, rečne i morske (kaspijske) ribe, a takođe voća i povrća. Za azerbejdžansku kuhinju je karakteristično korišćenje takvih začina kao što su šafran, semenke kima, komorač, anis, ljute papričice, lovor, korijander i zeleno začinsko bilje poput metvice, kopara, peršuna, celera, estragona, bosiljka, timijana i slično. Veoma česta su jela sa kiselim mlekom, pilav i kebab. Od začina je svakako najpopularniji šafran, koji daje neverovatan ukus hrani.

Azerbejdžan je bogat različitim izvorima ribe, posebno sevrjugom (zvezdasta jesetra) i jesetrom.
Jedno od najpoznatijih jela azerbejdžanske kuhinje je – plov (pilav). Postoji četrdesetak recepata za njegovu pripremu. U zavisnosti od vrste dodataka, pilavi se zovu: kaurma-pilav (s janjećim raguom), sabza kaurma (s janjećim raguom i zelenim začinskim biljem), tojug-pilav (s piletinom), širin- pilav (sa slatkim suvim voćem), sudlu pilav (pirinač na mleku) i sl.

Pripremaiserviranjepilavaimajusvojeposebnosti i tradiciju. Za razliku od drugih nacionalnih kuhinja, pirinač za pilav kuva se posebno, a meso, povrće, suvo voće i drugi sastojci odvojeno. Sve zajedno povezuje se u jedno jelo samo prilikom serviranja za stolom.
Jedno od glavnih mesta u azerbejdžanskoj kuhinji zauzimaju i jela sa roštilja (kebab). Vrlo popularne su različite vrste „dolma“, poznate ovde kao „sarma“ – mleveno meso sa pirinčem, uvijeno u vinovo lišće, lišće kupusa ili dunje – ali i punjen patildžan, paprika, paradajz i dr. Trpeza je nezamisliva bez hleba ispečenog u tandiru (glinena peć): lavaš (tanka tortilja) ili čureka (tanka lepinja).
Posle jela sa mesom često se služi hladna supa od kiselog mleka – dovga. Pretpostavlja se da dovga pomaže boljem varenju „teškog“ masnog mesa. Tradicionalni ručak se završava raznim orijentalnim slatkišima, čajem ili šerbetom.

U Azerbejdžanu je veoma omiljen crni čaj. Čaj u Azerbejdžanu je simbol toplog gostoprimstva. Piju ga bilo kada i bilo gde. Od pradavnih vremena postoji tradicija: kad dolaze gosti, prvo se poslužuje čaj. Čajem počinju i završavaju gozbu. Serviraju čaj u specijalnim malim staklenim čašama u formi kruške – armudi. On se poslužuje s raznim džemovima: od dunja, smokava, kore lubenice, marelica, trešanja, belih trešanja, bresaka, šljiva, oraha, jagoda, kupina, grožđa, duda. Prilikom pripreme čaja radi posebnog ukusa ponekad se dodaju klinčići, kardamon i drugi začini.
U vreme praznika su veoma popularni slatki proizvodi: pahlava (baklava), šakerbura (kolačići od testa punjeni orasima i šećerom), šeker-čurek (vrsta vanilica), kjata-karabahska, šorgohal (razne vrste slatkih i slanih pogačica) i dr.

Veoma je poznat i došab – vrsta sirupa od grožđa, kao i naršarab – sirup nara, i mnoga druga jela i napici azerbejdžanske kuhinje.

For Azerbaijani cuisine is typical use of such spices such as saffron, cumin seeds, fennel, anise, chilli, bay leaves, coriander and green herbs such as mint, dill, parsley, celery, tarragon, basil, thyme and the like. Very common dishes with sour milk, rice pilaf and kebab. From spices is definitely the most popular saffron, which gives amazing taste food.
