Description

Tash Kordo
Tash Kordo is an ancient dish, and is prepared by nomads who hunt and cook their fresh kill in a burning stone pit before bringing itback home.

Today, the dish has been revived by a local hero, Baatyrbek who lives in the Issyk-Kul region, in the village of Kok-Sai. He learned the recipe from the village elders who imparted to him the traditional art of preparing Tash Kordo.

Baatyrbek experimented with the recipe, butfound that nothing was better than the original combination of meat, saltand fire. The cooking process takes two days, the first day involves marinating the meat and heating the fire oven, and on the second day, the meat is cooked in the smoldering heatof the rocks around it.
