Mititei

Cultural Context

Mititei, or 'little ones', originated in Romania and is a beloved street food often enjoyed during summer barbecues. Traditionally made with a mix of meats and spices, these grilled sausages symbolize communal gatherings and celebrations. Today, mititei are popular not only in Romania but also in neighboring countries, often served at festivals and outdoor events.
