Original old recipe Sarma as a Serbian brand

Updated: Mar 11

  • Sarma is a traditional Serbian main dish, the Turks make it differently, they are a little smaller. Vojvodina is also known for Futog cabbage and I think it is the best in the whole world, the recipe is original and everyone loves it. While staying in Italy, I don't know a single Italian who hasn't heard of our famous sarmas. If you haven't tried it yet, start doing it right away, you won't regret it. Follow recipe.
