Dalmatian cuisine

skampiTrogir is not inferior to bigger Dalmatian cities when it comes to fish restaurants. Fresh grilled fish, i.e. prepared in a commonest manner, is the absolute ruler of the Dalmatian cuisine. Even though the preparation of Dalmatian specialties is rather simple, and you may find it easy to prepare them on your own; every cook has their own little tricks. You have probably heard of some meat dishes, like Dalmatian ”Pastizzada”, i.e. stewed beef served in Dalmatian gravy sauce with dumplings; and now is the right time to taste them. If you are a fan of smoked and cured meats, you should try Prosciutto from Sinj (i.e. smoked or dry-cured ham). And for a desert get yourself a treat with Ravioli from Trogir.
