The Strangers
The pasul has Turkish origins, and its ingredients are beans, water, meat, vegetables and various spices. It's a typical Turkish-Kosovan dish that was born more than three centuries ago, and it’s still adored by all Turks and Kosovans.
This dish was used during war time because it is easy to prepare. We chose the pasul because it’s very tasty and everybody adores it. After preparing, the pasul takes a day to rest, so that the next day the dish is ready to be eaten.
The pasul takes from four to six hours only for cooking and boiling. The only flaw of this dish is that it causes farts. The pasul is usually matched with salad and homemade cheese, and it can be served without meat, but it’s mostly consumed with homemade dried beef.
When I think about the pasul, it occurs to me when I was a kid and it was time to have dinner with all my cousins: we ate together laughing and joking after a day full of games. It also reminds me some winter days spent out with my grandfather to help him and in the evening we ate the hot pasul, that warmed us all over the body, exposed to the cold of those days.
