It is very rarely consumed in Greece. It is massively used,consumed and home prepared in Macedonia,some in Serbia and maybe in Bulgaria. Anyway very delicious stuff!!

I can't even remember the last time I ate ketchup. I ran into a Brit recently in San Diego who was complaining they didn't have any brown sauce for his eggs during breakfast, and was gobsmacked when the waiter brought me HP when I asked for steak sauce - I was just as surprised, as I'd expected A-1. I got to experience the Brit's lament when I was told they only had HP, and now the other gentleman knew what to ask for when he wanted something for his eggs in the morning. I told him if he thought HP was the stuff, he really needed to get a hold of some A-1 before he left. What's the difference, he asked? I said A-1 was spicier with more raisin and orange peel. Couldn't believe the place didn't have any, I can't think of a hotel restaurant within two hundred miles of me here that would be caught <i>dead</i> without a single thing of A-1 in the place. I am not a shill for A-1, it was my go-to condiment as a kid though. Still, A-1's really only for steak and fries, whereas sriracha is the new ketchup, and tzatziki is king. Mayo is still as boring and gross as it always has been, and how can you mention tahini without saying anything about hummus? A friend once fed me some chutney more sour and bitter than a car's battery fluid, I still can't say if I liked it or not. What I really want to know is how to make that pork chile a local place serves, if you've got a tamale there's nothing in the world better to dip it in. Miss ketchup?

Almost every house in Macedonia is making some of it before the autumn starts and the whole country smells on Ajvar in that period which I've found quite peculiar while I was travelling through the villages of Macedonia with my wife. Combined with warm bread from a village bakery,garlic and white cheese made of sheep's or especially goat's milk its one hell of a gastronomically orgasmic feeling. One of a kind!

Can be served as a side dish (all over the world), while in Macedonia is also main meal, spread on sliced bread and accompanied with feta cheese, olives, and/or salami. Visit the country in September and October and see the process of creating home made Ajvar;it takes 2-3 days of intensive laboring to prepare about 20-30 kilos of it. Why people make so much Ajvar? So they can enjoy it over the winter season and well into spring next year. S-W-E-E-T! AJVAR is the most delicious condiment and a must in every home in Macedonia.
