Plum homemade adjika is a bright representative of Georgian cuisine, combining a rich sweet-spicy taste and a piquant aroma. This sauce originated as a variation of traditional adjika but with the addition of juicy plums that give it a special sweet-sour note. Thanks to the use of tomatoes, garlic, and hot peppers, adjika has a pronounced flavor and a pleasant spicy nuance. It pairs perfectly with meat, poultry, fish, and vegetable dishes, enriching them with its rich bouquet. During preparation, the ingredients are chopped and cooked down to achieve an ideal blend of flavors. Plum adjika not only makes the meal rich but also highlights Georgian gastronomic traditions.
