How to Cook dishes from Romania


Romanian cuisine is a diverse cuisine. It includes many typically Balkan recipes, and is also influenced by German cuisine, Hungarian cuisine, and Serbian cuisine.

Some popular Romanian recipes and dishes include:
  • Ardei umpluti - Bell peppers stuffed with ground pork, rice, onion and other vegetables.

    Ardei umpluti

  • Chiftele - Breaded meatballs.

  • Cioba de burta - Tripe soup, made from the stomach of a cow with milk and various seasonings.

  • Cioba de ciocanele - A soup made from leg of pork with milk.

  • Cioba de perisoare - Meatball soup.

  • Frigarui - Smalled pieces of meat cooked on a skewer. Beef, chicken, lamb, mutton or pork may be used, and the pieces of meat on the skewer may be alternated between bacon, sausages or various vegetables such as bell peppers, mushrooms, onions or tomatoes. Frigarui are seasoned with spices such as garlic, laurel, and marjoram, pepper, and rosemary.

  • Mamaliga - Cornmeal mush made from yellow maize, similar to Italian cuisine's polenta.

  • Mititei - Grilled rolls made from beef mixed with mutton or pork.

  • Papricas - A meat stew flavored with paprika, similar to Hungarian cuisine's pörkölt.

  • Rasol - Boiled meat, potatoes and vegetables. If chicken is used for the meat, the whole chicken is typically is cut into pieces and used, whereas if pork is used, the pig's leg is used. It is item with a spicy garlic sauce known as mujdei or horseradish.

  • Salata de boeuf - A salad made from chopped beef and root vegetables in mayonnaise. It is eaten garnished with pickled vegetables.

  • Salata de vinete - A salad made from chopped grill eggplants with chopped onions and sunflower oil. Mayonnaise, or crushed garlic and pepper powder may be added.

  • Sarmale - Rolls of cabbage stuffed with ground meat, rice and onions. These rolls are often eaten on Christmas Eve and at Easter.

  • Snitel - Pork tenderloin stuffed with cheese and ham, covered with breadcrumbs and fried. It is the Romanian version of Austrian cuisine's Wiener schnitzel. Sometimes other meats such as beef, chicken or pork may be used, a fast-food version eaten in a sandwich is also popular, and in Western Romania the dish is made from two layers of meat with mushrooms between them.

  • Zacusca - A vegetable spread made from cooked eggplant, beans, red peppers and chopped onion. It is typically matured for several months before eating, but once the jar is opened must be eaten within a few days. Zacusca is typically spread on to bread.

Product Description:
I come from a big family of five children-one brother and three sisters. I am the second child in the family after my brother. My parents taught me many family values; one, which I love the most, is cooking. My mother gave me a wooden spoon at an early age. I love cooking for family and friends. I came to the United States in the fall of 1997. Now I live in Maryland, with my husband, Waldo Mojica, who is from Puerto Rico. Waldo inspired me to write this book. He loves and appreciates my cooking very much. This is my first book. Also, I'm working on a bilingual book for children, English-Romanian and Romanian-English. I love and enjoy cooking, traveling and reading. I speak English, Romanian and basic Spanish.
