Fragrant shashlik

6 servings

45 minutes

Aromatic shashlik is a true embodiment of Russian culinary tradition, with roots going back centuries. This juicy and fragrant shashlik is made from pork neck marinated in kefir, onions, and spicy seasonings. The slight acidity of the kefir makes the meat incredibly tender and soft, while the combination of black and red pepper adds zest. Ginger adds a hint of spice, creating an exquisite bouquet of flavors. This shashlik is perfect for friendly gatherings in nature, family dinners, and festive feasts. It is served with greens, fresh vegetables, and aromatic sauces. Each piece carries the warmth of home and love for traditions.
