odeljku

Odeljku is a traditional Croatian dish that is particularly popular in the coastal regions of Dalmatia. The name "odeljku" comes from the verb "odeliti," which means to separate, reflecting the dish's method of preparation. It is a hearty stew made with a variety of ingredients, including meat, vegetables, and sometimes seafood. The most common meats used are pork, beef, or a combination of both, which are slow-cooked with vegetables such as potatoes, carrots, and onions. The dish is typically seasoned with herbs and spices, and sometimes includes a touch of wine or other liquids to enhance the flavor. Odeljku is often served with crusty bread to soak up the rich stew. This dish is a staple in Croatian cuisine, known for its comforting and satisfying qualities. It is often prepared during colder months and is a favorite among locals for its warmth and heartiness.
