It is strange that one of the classics of Serbian cuisine is called Russian Salad. Actually, it is our take on Salad Olivier, and until recently it would be impossible to see any Serbian festivity without it.

Traditionally, Serbians prepare wheat like this for the patron saint day. To offer the guests when they come in. It is also made for the funerals, even weddings… But no cream traditionally. Cream was added later. When they started to sell it in pastry shops. Wheat and cream reminds me of childhood. Of old socialist Yugoslavia. Of the times of Brotherhood and Unity. When everyone was happy. Today, you are my guests and I offer you some of it. Welcome!
