Ossetian cuisine
Cooking styles and dishes of the Ossetian people
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ossetian cuisine (Iron Ossetic: Ирон хæринæгтæ, romanized: Iron xærinægtæ) refers to the cooking styles and dishes of the Ossetians of the Caucasus.
Ossetian pie
Fidgin/fуddžyn (Iron Ossetic: фыдджын) is a type of meat pie.
Three pies (Iron Ossetic: Æртæ чъирийы) is an important concept in Ossetian culture, representing sun, earth and water.[1]
Ossetian beer
Beer has been prepared and enjoyed in Ossetia since ancient times.[2] Ossetian beer is dark-brown to black in color, has little-to-no foam and a significantly lower alcohol content than most ordinary types of beer. Iron Bægæny is a famous beer festival celebrating this cultural treasure in a manner comparable to that of the German Oktoberfest.
Ossetian cheese
Ossetian cheese is the traditional cheese of Ossetians.[3] It is mostly served as hard cheese.
South Ossetian dishes
A dish unique to South Ossetia—similar to a Scotch egg or nargesi kebab—is made by wrapping one half of a boiled egg in a serving of ground beef and frying it in tomato sauce.[4]
