Lyutenitsa · Plovdiv
Lyutenitsa is the Bulgarian roasted pepper, tomato and aubergine spread. Sweet, smoky, slightly spicy, eaten on bread with sirene or alongside grills.
Lyutenitsa is the late-September Bulgarian preserve. Families roast bell peppers and aubergines over wood fires, peel them by hand, then cook the flesh with tomato into a thick spread put up in jars for winter. The Plovdiv plain is one of Bulgaria's largest pepper-growing regions, and the autumn roasting fills the city's neighbourhoods with sweet smoke.
