A Mosaic of Flavor: Bosnian-Herzegovinian Sarma and Kuglice

This monthly series is a collaboration with the Vermont Refugee Resettlement Program. In January, we will be preparing Sarma, a traditional stuffed sour cabbage dish popular in Bosnia-Herzegovina. Cabbage leaves are stuffed with a seasoned mixture of rice and ground beef, laid on a bed of sauerkraut and simmered to completion. We will also learn to make Kuglice sa suhim vocem, a healthy no-bake cookie made with dried fruit and spices. A professional caterer, Davorka will share all her secrets for making these two delicate and tasty dishes. Davorka Gosto came to Vermont from Bosnia-Herzegovina over 20 years ago. She feels blessed to be one of two daughters raised by a mother who trained and worked as a professional cook in Mostar. Davorka has written a cookbook, From Mama's Kitchen: Cuisine of Herzegovina, which will be for sale at the class.
