Somun is a traditional type of flatbread commonly associated with Balkan cuisine, particularly Bosnia and Herzegovina. Made from simple ingredients like wheat flour, water, yeast, and salt, this bread is baked at high temperatures, giving it a soft interior and crispy exterior. Somun is often served alongside dishes like ćevapi, stews, or spreads, and its airy texture makes it perfect for absorbing flavors. Nutritionally, somun is a source of carbohydrates and provides energy, but it is low in fiber and nutrients unless made with whole grain flour. While it contains minimal fat, its nutritional impact largely depends on the accompaniments it is paired with. Enjoyed as a staple in everyday meals or special occasions, somun reflects the simplicity and heartiness of Balkan cuisine while offering a versatile option for a wide array of dishes.
