Sweet or salty, buk\u00ebvalja always remains one of the earliest and most delicious dishes of traditional Albanian cuisine.<\/p>\n
In the past, buk\u00ebvalja was often prepared because of its few and inexpensive ingredients, and yet its taste completely embraces you.<\/p>\n
Usually mothers or grandmothers prepared it for breakfast and served it to the whole family warm.<\/p>\n
Buk\u00ebvalja was prepared sweet with sugar and butter but also salty with cheese and spices.<\/p>\n
Both ways are very special in taste and ideal whenever you prepare it.<\/p>\n
In some areas, buk\u00ebvala is prepared with fried bread, but according to the tradition of Gyrokastrian sides, buk\u00ebvala is prepared with kulac.<\/p>\n
Preparation of Buk\u00ebvala according to the tradition of Gyrokastria<\/p>\n
To begin with, in a wide container, add the flour, salt and start working with your hands, slowly adding lukewarm water until a soft mass is created.<\/p>\n
Place the kulache dough on a baking sheet greased with fresh butter and bake in the oven until the surface becomes transparent.<\/p>\n
After it has baked and cooled a little, crumble the kulache into small pieces like those of a square. <\/p>\n
Meanwhile, add sugar and water to a pot and leave until the mixture boils well and becomes syrupy. At this point, take it off the heat.<\/p>\n
Next, pour the crumbled kulache into the syrup pot. Add melted butter on top, close the pot with a lid and let the pieces of cake absorb the sherbet.<\/p>\n
Let it cool and serve separately on plates. If you prefer, you can add some cinnamon powder or crushed nuts to the bread.<\/p>\n
