 brikWe all eat far more adventurously than past generations, but one of the treats of travelling to Tunisia is the opportunity to savour some delicious local dishes, cooked in an authentic manner, without pandering to European tastebuds. Even couscous can taste so much better here than in front of the TV at home!
Tunisian fare is commonly a stew of meat and/or vegetables poured over fine couscous grains. Tajines are the traditional fare of the Berbers and consist of thick omelettes with spinach, meat or chicken added to the pan. Spices add to the taste and the aroma and are a particularly Arabic or eastern influence, and olives, nuts and local fruits in season are all used in the preparation of local dishes. Tunisia also maintains the tradition of finishing a meal with sticky flaky pastries oozing with honey, or their staple pistachio ice cream.
