Crimean Tatar cuisine: Difference between revisions

The '''Crimean Tatar cuisine''' is primarily the cuisine of the [[Crimean Tatars]], who live on the [[Crimea|Crimean Peninsula]]. The traditional cuisine of the Crimean Tatars has similarities with that of [[Greeks]], [[Italians]], [[Balkans|Balkan]] peoples, [[Nogais|Nogays]], North Caucasians, and [[Volga Tatars]], although some national dishes and dietary habits vary between different Crimean Tatar regional subgroups; for example, [[Fish as food|fish]] and [[produce]] are more popular among [[Yaliboylu]] and Tat dishes while meat and dairy is more prevalent in Steppe Tatar cuisine. Many Uzbek dishes were incorporated into Crimean Tatar national cuisine during exile in Central Asia since 1944, and these dishes have become prevalent in Crimea since the return. Uzbek [[Samsa (food)|samsa]], [[Laghman (food)|laghman]], and {{transl|crh|plov}} ([[pilaf]]) are sold in most Tatar roadside cafes in Crimea as national dishes. In turn, some Crimean Tatar dishes, including Chiburekki, have been adopted by peoples outside Crimea, such as in [[Turkey]] and the [[North Caucasus]].<ref>{{Cite web|last=Mustafa|first=Elmara|date=18 August 2018|title=В помощь туристам: популярные блюда крымскотатарской кухни|trans-title=To help tourists: popular dishes of the Crimean Tatar cuisine|url=https://crimea.ria.ru/society/20180818/1115040720.html|access-date=2020-09-21|website=RIA Novosti - Crimea|language=ru}}</ref>
