Radovan Marčić: Epistles to gourmands: 152 recipes for overseas cuisine and a few others
Aware that the island and coastal gastronomic pearls, which he meticulously testifies to in the column and now in the book in front of you like an ethnogastronomist, arrived equally from Venice and Morlak, and from the West and the Levant, whom Radovan will not skip even "Vlach" kastradina with the inevitable "acidity", nor domestic pulastre or game. Cod "na bjanko", imaginative and fragrant vegetable combinations, unquestionable gems of autochthonous Dalmatian cuisine such as pašticada, which, as our kogo tells us, can be made from tuna as well as beef, countless island variations of brujeta and "morlačka" dishes made from game, Mediterranean tripe, shellfish torja and buzara that would raise even the dead... these are not only exceptional delicacies that can be prepared thanks to kogo's precise recipes i u vlastitom loncu ili teći. They are authentic and above all illustrative parts of the story of the eastern coast of the Adriatic and its cultural and biological "melting pot". Even better, they are the anchorages of exceptional gastronomic destinations which - be they sailors and sea vagabonds, "just" tourists-intentions or "virtual" travelers anchored by their own stove - are worth discovering by sailing in the footsteps of Radovan.
