Ciorba de Burta
Ciorba de Burta is Romania's most celebrated soup, a rich and tangy tripe broth that divides opinions but inspires fierce loyalty in those who love it. The beef tripe is simmered for hours until perfectly tender, then the broth is enriched with a velvety egg and sour cream liaison. Finished with vinegar and a fiery garlic sauce on the side, it is considered the ultimate comfort food and hangover remedy across the country.
