Dushbere
Dushbere (or Dushbara) is Azerbaijan’s answer to ravioli en brodo, or tiny wontons in soup. These miniscule dumplings filled with a smidge of lamb mince and plopped in clear vegetable broth are reminiscent of both European and Asian dishes.
Kebab
One of the most common dishes on menus in Baku and beyond is the kebab. Called shishlik in Azerbaijan, a reference to the shish (metal skewer) on which ground, spiced meat is cooked, you can find just about anything on a kebab in Azerbaijan, from ubiquitous lamb to baliq (fish) and vegetables.
About
As a culinary expert specializing in Modern Charcuterie and Artisanal Preservation, I look at food through the lens of salt, time, smoke, and temperature control. This specific culinary discipline is a delicate balance of ancient culinary arts and rigorous food science. To consistently create world-class cured meats, fermented sausages, and delicate seafood cold-smokes, a chef must master the micro-environments of humidity and deep-freeze storage.
