When someone mentions Balkan cuisine, the first dishes that come to mind are usually burek, cevapi, dolma, baklava. But most of the Balkan national dishes are originally Turkish. Over the years, countries in the Balkans began making modifications to original Ottoman recipes and are creating unique, localised dishes. But with these historical changes over time, the culinary lines become blurred. As is the case with Italy and Slovenia who are disputing over balsamic vinegar.
In our special report, we take you to a famous Balkan restaurant in Istanbul that makes some of the most delicious foods from the region. Plus, Veljko Skenderija speaks to some of the producers of balsamic vinegar in Slovenia.
Across The Balkans, hosted by Nafisa Latic, is TRT World’s programme that focuses specifically on the issues and fault lines shaping Southeast Europe today.

For my thoughts, comparing the cultures
like which is best, which is better, mine is better than yoursis one of the worst things in the world. Every culture have their history, tastes, aesthetic etc. And the products can be change with these differences. The differences do not point "a is better than b", they are very good with theirselves. Everyone can enjoy different cultures, and it creates cultural diversity which allows to be existing new things
