Must-Try Dishes

Grilled Fish: Fresh seafood is a staple in Tisno. Try grilled fish like sea bass (brancin) or bream (orada), typically seasoned with olive oil, garlic, and herbs.

Brudet: This traditional Dalmatian fish stew is made with various types of fish, shellfish, tomatoes, and spices, slow-cooked to develop rich flavors.

Black Risotto (Crni Rižot): This distinctive Croatian dish is made with cuttlefish and their ink, which gives the risotto its deep black color. The ink imparts a rich, briny flavor that pairs wonderfully with the tender cuttlefish and creamy risotto.

Peka: A traditional Croatian dish where meat (often lamb, pork, or veal) and vegetables are slow-cooked under a bell-shaped metal lid (peka) over an open fire or in an oven. This slow-cooking method makes the meat exceptionally tender and flavorful.

Pašticada: A slow-cooked beef dish braised in a rich sauce made from red wine, vinegar, and a blend of spices. It’s traditionally served with homemade gnocchi.

Dalmatian Ham (Pršut): Air-dried ham, typically served thinly sliced. It’s often enjoyed with cheese and olives.
