Georgian cuisine: celebration of life, love and the enduring spirit of a nation

Georgian cuisine is a vibrant mosaic of flavours, colours and aromas that captivate the senses and tell the story of a rich cultural heritage. Situated between Europe and Asia, Georgia’s culinary identity is as diverse as its landscapes, with each dish offering a glimpse of the ancient past and a taste of the vibrant present.

Georgian cuisine is not just about food, it is a celebration of life, love and the enduring spirit of a nation. With every bite, you are invited to experience the warmth of Georgian culture and the passion that goes into the creation of each dish. So sit back and savour the flavours of Georgia, where every meal is a feast for the senses and a testament to the art of living well.

I have prepared three typical Georgian dishes for you:

1. Aubergines in peanut sauce (Badrijani Nigvzit): this tempting starter combines tender slices of fried aubergines with a velvety peanut sauce. Seasoned with garlic, vinegar and Georgian spices, this dish is a symphony of spicy flavours that awakens the palate and sets the stage for an unforgettable meal.
2. Khinkali: beloved Georgian dumplings that embody the essence of Georgian hospitality. These dumplings are filled with spiced meat, herbs and hot broth, lovingly wrapped in twisted dough. Traditionally handmade, khinkali are a testament to the artistry of Georgian cuisine and the joy of sharing food with friends and family.
3. Pears in wine and syrup – a dessert that combines sweet Georgian pears cooked in local red wine with vanilla sauce. This delightful dish encapsulates the sweetness of Georgian hospitality and the richness of culinary traditions, leaving a lingering sweetness on the palate and in the heart.

Enjoy!
