Crnogorska pogača

Crnogorska pogača is a traditional peasant bread originating from Montenegro. This yeastless bread is usually made with a combination of flour, water, salt, baking soda, and oil or butter for greasing the baking dish. Once prepared, the dough for this pogača should be somewhat harder than regular bread dough.


It's placed into a greased baking dish, covered with the lid (sač – which is then topped with ash and hot coals), and the bread is baked for about half an hour. Once done, the bread is sprinkled with cold water, wrapped into a kitchen cloth, then left to rest for a while before it's served.


Crnogorska pogača is usually enjoyed with cheese and cold cuts.
