The region where I come from is the Rhodopi mountain, located in the southern part of Bulgaria, on the Balkan peninsula. According to the legends this beautiful mountain is the birthplace and the home of the mythical singer Orpheus. For some reason this is the area with the healthiest people in Bulgaria and according to the statistics it is the region with the lowest incidence of cancer, diabetes, cardiovascular problems, psychosis and osteoporosis. Here people for centuries live in a healthy way and nature has generously blessed them with many resources.
I remember my grand and great-grandparents living over one hundred years. In this book I want to share with you some of the recipes I inherited from them with the intention to introduce a simple way of cooking to interleave your diet with tasty dishes prepared with lots of love and positive energy that will keep you healthy and happy as my ancestors from the mountains.
