Many Croatian families compliment their meals with homemade pasta, served on the side to sop up the delicious sauces. A popular Croatian pasta dish is fusi, which is a diamond-shaped, hand-rolled pasta popular in the Istrian region of the country. These hearty noodles are delicious when served with local meat stews, because their rougher texture encourages the sauce to cling to the noodle in way that’s unique to homemade noodles. If you can’t convince someone’s mom to make them for you, visit Tavern Toncic in Zrenj for the best version Croatia has to offer outside of a home.
