National cuisine of Bosnia And Herzegovina

Local residents are habitues of fragrant bakeries selling delicious mini-rolls filled with cheese. Cheese and coffee are some of the most delicious products offered by the Bosnian cuisine. Bosnians often eat sweets, cakes, and donuts with jam. On a dinner table, easy-to-prepare potato patties smelling of home and coziness (locally known as "Potato Pita") lie next to traditional "Begova Čorba", a thick chicken-vegetable soup unchanged since the days of the Ottoman Empire.
