Maltese Breakfast - Olga
Today we had a very interesting lesson organized by our teacher. She offered us some popular Maltese specialties with Kinnie, which is a local beverage. At first we read a text about Maltese cuisine where most famous and typical dishes were presented. It was a very curious history about the origins of Maltese cooking with a description of ingredients and explanation of way of cooking. Then we had to answer to our teacher’s questions about the text. At the end Corinne offered some cookies: pastizzi with ricotta and mashed peas, crackers with salt and rosemary and Maltese cheese – “Gbejna”. It was very nice breakfast à la maltaise. After reading and discussing, I realized that there are still a lot of new specialties that I didn’t try. Corinne suggested us some popular places in Malta where we can taste delicious sweets and buy the crusty local Maltese bread. L-ikla t-tajba!
