If you love bread and you’d like to experiment with a new cousine, then Proja is the thing to try. Proja is a traditional Serbian cornbread that has been served for centuries. I think that by now, every family has their own family recipe and way of making it, just as we do!
Other than consisting of cornflour, you’ll find ingredients such as all-purpose flour, eggs, and sparkling water which is a key ingredient and makes the dough more airy and fluffy. Usually, some kind of white cheese or feta cheese is added to the dough, but this can be omitted. In terms of it’s consistency, Proja is not like a loaf of bread as per se, but more like a dense cake, without being sweet!
If you love bread and you’d like to experiment with a new cousine, then Proja is the thing to try. These pretty yellow buns with such a pleasant flavor are perfect for a dinner table.
