Mussels Buzara
in Kotor
Mussels buzara is a classic Bay of Kotor order: shellfish quickly cooked with white wine, fresh tomatoes, garlic, parsley, and olive oil until the broth turns aromatic enough to demand bread on the side.
Did you know?
Buzara is less a single recipe than an Adriatic method: shellfish cooked fast in a garlicky wine sauce that tastes different at nearly every konoba on the coast.
