Add Chvishtari (Corn bread with cheese) to your favourite list of the dishes
Chvistari (also called chishdvaar) is a cornbread with cheese from Georgia’s Svaneti region. It is also popular in Samegrelo region.
The main ingredients are slightly salty cheese (Sulguni) from west part of Georgia and corn flour.
In case you are not successful to find Georgian cheese Sulguni abroad I would recommend to try a combination of feta and mozzarella.
