 Risotto Pelegrin by KristaB
For 4 persons:
3 cloves of chopped garlic - put on a warm olive oil, add
0,5 kg of calamari - clean, cut into rings and sauté for 15 minutes with 1 dl of fine white wine, add
0,5 kg of fresh prawns - I peeled them, makes eating easier.
Put 0,5 kg of small shells into a separate pan, cover with lid and cook for about 5 minutes - until shells open.
Cooked rice - add sautéed calamari and prawns, stir, add just a little of water from the pan with shells, but be careful because it is salty seawater, also use fine colander or cloth to get rid of sand, and in the end add shells.
More different ingredients - better taste. Local epicureans also use small barnacles and all things crawling and living in the tidal area.

 Lots and lots of lavender!! by TheWanderingCamel
Only the growth at the top of the plant produces the valuable oil, but waste not, want not, there's plenty of flowers left over to be dried and used to produce every variety of stuffed lavender sachet, pillow and pomander you could think of. The amount of purple net and ribbon that is used in Hvar must have old Perkins smiling down from heaven. Leave a Comment

 Eating them alive by csordila
And local feature is eating them straight from getting them from the sea, while they are still alive!! It is so fresh that it moves when you touch it. You either just lick the insides out or, if you are feeling slightly more refined, you scoop them out with a small piece of bread.
Unfortunately... I have never developed much of an appetite for raw seafood, but I prefer my food quite dead first, and no longer moving.
If you cook them, they taste a bit sweet, like lobster.

It's alright but a bit reminds me a bit of Carlsberg ( which is a bad thing) Leave a Comment

It's used in the local pubs, to give the barman a little money everytime you take something, for you only or for all your friends. The first time you pay. The second time you pay. The third time the barman offers the drink to you. Leave a Comment

The habit for dog and cat owners on the island seems to be to keep them free. While wandering on the streets of the towns you can spot nice dogs. Didn't see any Dalmatians, though ;) Leave a Comment
