Belmuž is a traditional shepherd's dish originating from eastern Serbia. This simple dish consists of only three ingredients – cheese, flour, and a bit of salt. The key ingredient is cheese, that should be fresh and full-fat cow's or preferably sheep's cheese.

Once cut into pieces, the cheese is placed in a big pot over low heat. As it melts, salt and flour are added until a homogenous mass is formed. The mixture is continuously stirred with a big wooden spoon until the fat separates and starts to float on the surface. 

Moravska salata is a Serbian salad originating from Niš and Leskovac. The salad is made with a combination of leeks, tomatoes, roasted peppers, hot peppers, garlic, salt, and oil. The vegetables are chopped, seasoned with salt, and drizzled with oil.

The combination is then mixed well and refrigerated before serving. Moravska salata is especially popular during the hot summer months. It can be served as an appetizer, a side dish accompanying grilled meat, and sometimes even as a main dish served with a piece of hard cheese and bread (for dipping) on the side.

Although it is a common sight in countries such as Croatia, Slovenia, and Macedonia, gibanica is mainly associated with Serbia. It is a traditional pie-like dish that combines phyllo dough (occasionally replaced with yeast dough) with a creamy combination of cheese and eggs.

The most popular version of this versatile pie is popularly known as gužvara, meaning crumpled, in which the sheets of phyllo dough are soaked in a creamy mixture of fresh cow’s cheese and eggs. The sheets are then layered and baked in the form of a casserole. 

Duvan čvarci is a version of pork cracklings originating from Serbia. Unlike the usual pork crackling, duvan cracklings contain only 10% of fat, which is the reason for their unique flavor. Another distinct feature is their appearance, which is reminiscent of thinly cut tobacco.

Just like regular cracklings, duvan cracklings are often served as an appetizer. They’re considered a delicacy because the preparation process takes a long time and results in small quantities of the cracklings. Duvan cracklings are primarily associated with the city of Valjevo, where the Duvan čvarci festival is held every year.

Belolučene paprike is a healthy Serbian salad made with a combination of roasted bell peppers, garlic, vinegar, salt, oil, and parsley. The ingredients are simply mixed together, and the combination is well-chilled before consumption. In summer, the salad is prepared with freshly roasted bell peppers, and in winter, it is usually prepared with preserved and canned bell peppers.

Belolučene paprike can sometimes be enriched with roasted aubergines. The salad is served as an appetizer or a side dish. It can also be consumed as a main dish when served with white cheese and a few slices of bread that are typically dipped in the salad juices.

This Serbian delicacy is prepared in a time-consuming process that includes slowly frying pork rinds until the fat is completely extracted. Common additions include pork offal such as lungs, liver, intestines, and parts of the head that are cooked, finely chopped, and added to the frying mixture.

When the fat completely melts and the ingredients are combined, the mixture is drained and stored. Traditionally prepared during colder seasons, kavurma or sprža is usually associated with the southern parts of Serbia, namely the city of Leskovac. 

Pihtije is a Serbian dish made from cheaper parts of pork such as the head, shank, or hock. The meat is often cooked together with pepper, onion, carrots, and bay leaves until it becomes so tender that it falls off the bone. Together with stock, the meat is placed into bowls which are then left to cool and the dish is ready to congeal.

Pihtije is served sliced as an appetizer, accompanied by cold pickled vegetables and a glass of rakija on the side.

Živa pljeskavica is an appetizer made with ground veal, salt, pepper, smoked paprika, paprika flakes, Vegeta, oil, and chopped onion. The meat and spices are placed on a large plate and mixed with a fork until they form a homogenous mass that is then shaped into a patty.

The dish was created at the restaurant Kod Bore in Sedlari near Valjevo in Serbia, and it's a take on a dish eaten by hospitality workers in state-owned restaurants in the former Yugoslavia. Because they were pressed for time, they would typically eat a raw meat patty tucked into a warm lepinja flatbread for lunch. Živa pljeskavica is served with grilled bread or lepinja flatbread and salt and paprika for seasoning and is usually consumed while waiting for one's order of grilled and barbecued meats to arrive.

Čalabrca is a simple Serbian dish made with phyllo pastry, oil, milk, and kajmak (clotted cream). A spoonful of lard or oil is dropped into boiling water. Dried phyllo pastry is torn into pieces, and the pot of boiling water with oil is poured over them, ideally in an earthenware pot.

The concoction is shortly cooked, taken off the flames, then combined with milk and kajmak. The dish is typically served as an appetizer, and the name is derived from the colloquial word čalabrcnuti, meaning to nibble.
