The record 1.2 tons lyutenitsa were boiled in the center of Sofia on the occasion The Pink Tomato Festival, which took place in the capital. Dozens of volunteers joined the initiative, which was led by Chief Angel Angelov.

The idea for cooking lutenitsa in front of the monument to the Soviet Army in Sofia came from the National Trust for the Preservation of the Historical Heritage of Bulgaria and the Culinary Historian Academy.

Shortly before the people of Sofia celebrated their holiday, they gathered in front of a huge cauldron in the center of Sofia to cut tomatoes, peppers and carrots for the record lyutenitsa.

Angel Angelov told the Telegraph newspaper that there are different recipes for lyutenitsa in different regions of Bulgaria. In some places peppers do not grow and therefore their quantity is replaced by carrots.

In Dobrudzha they add more peppers, but less tomatoes when cooking lyutenitsa.

The lyutenitsa, which is boiled in the center of Sofia, was different from the ones we know, because not a drop of oil was put in it. Only 1.2 kilograms of salt were added to 1.2 tons of boiled peppers and tomatoes.

To compensate for the salty taste, garlic and pepper were added to the lyutenitsa. Sugar was also missed.

Chef Angelov says that lyutenitsa can be consumed even by people with stomach diseases such as ulcers, as long as the ingredients that provoke heartburn are limited.
