Savoring Serbian Ćevapi Without Mustard: Your Allergy-Safe Guide

For food lovers with mustard allergies, navigating Serbian cuisine can feel like walking through a flavorful minefield. Traditional dishes like Ćevapi—juicy minced meat sausages—often come served with ajvar (roasted pepper relish) and other condiments that may contain hidden mustard. But thanks to mm food's revolutionary technology, enjoying authentic Balkan flavors while staying safe has never been easier.

Why Mustard Lurks in Serbian Cuisine

Mustard frequently appears in marinades, sauces, and dips across Serbian kitchens. While ajvar is typically pepper-based, some recipes include mustard for tanginess. Cross-contamination during preparation is another risk, making menu translation alone insufficient for allergy safety.
