    It is corn bread. You can heat it up eat it with butter and feta cheese, olives and some scallions, or yogurt, . The desert is called Revani. Is made with corn starch, sugar, butter and dried fruits.

    Hey man, you look good. Albania is a healthy place, because there is literarly no Industry in hundreds of kilometers. Dont worry about the calories. In Albania you need the calories.
    And btw. Didnt they tell you that we use to drink yoghurt or dhalle with burek?

      @@vansvoyage6604 in every bakery in croatia, macedonia or serbia they would sell you a yoghurt or ayran for sure.

    Love your reaction for that cheese triangle pie. You clearly liked it. It's a staple for breakfast in my country now. Back in time when I was growing up they were made in a square or rectangle shape. It's important to understand something when it comes to taste those byreks. Unfortunately, stores that make byrek today due to cost constrains use cheap ingredients and more likely those byreks you ate were cooked with vegetable or palm oil. Cooking them with unpasteurized organic butter is a whole different ball game. Flour and cheese too. If you make it to Korca region, Pogradec, Voskopoje, Leskovik you will taste much better byreks.

    yes that is a corn bread, if it is stuffed would be called pispili. Last one is called revani and South Albania cooks it like that. Its main ingredient is starch. Vlora does the best of it, like it so much. 🍻

    I would highly recommend you to accompany byrek with 'dhalle' which is as well a famous dairy product in Albania.
    Have to mention homemade byrek as well and trust me, in your neighborhood there are at least 3-4 ladies that nail it. Find a way to be their guest and you will realize it for yourself!

    White Cheese is called DJATH and for 200 years was called DJATH i bardhe 4 Millions Arvanites which is mean Albanian who live in Greece from 1821 calls the feta DJATH i bardh. Hope and other people who enter Albania need to know that White cheese is called Djath i bardh, the Greeks made the name of feta for them business in 1975 founded Albanian and other countries in Balkan weak and stupid and they toke over the business.
