The diversity of vegetables and cereals found in the country is also noticed in the delicious dishes prepared by Azerbaijani cooks. Meat is one of the main elements of most Azerbaijani dishes and cured and smoked hams, poultry, pork and beef fillets, and bacons are often parts of delicious dishes. Smoked fish as well as other fish meat types are widely appreciated, and cooking styles may differ from highly specialized restaurant cooking to simple, rustic cooking methods. Although the traditional cooking styles for most Azerbaijani dishes go back to hundreds, if not thousands of years ago, today most cooking is quite similar to any western or central European cuisine. The Azerbaijani cuisine uses elements from various cooking traditions borrowed from their neighbors and developed from their own traditional dishes. While there are no specific or unique preparation methods for Azerbaijani cooking, we should point out that attention to detail is important in the Azerbaijani cuisine. Using the right amount of spices for example is essential – either for spicing up the taste or for coloring the dish.
