Shashlik
Shashlik, or shashlyck (Russian: шашлык shashlykpronunciationⓘ), is a dish of skewered and grilled cubes of meat, similar to or synonymous with shish kebab.It is known traditionally by various other names in the Caucasus, Eastern Europe and Central Asia,[1][2] and from the 19th century became popular as shashlik across much of the Russian Empire and nowadays in former Soviet Union republics.The word was coined from the Crimean Tatar: şış ('spit') by the Zaporozhian Cossacks and entered Russian in the 18th century, from there spreading to English and other European languages.The meat is marinated overnight in a high-acidity marinade like vinegar, dry wine or sour fruit/vegetable juice with the addition of onions, herbs and spices.[12][better source needed] While it is not unusual to see shashlik today listed on the menu of restaurants, it is more commonly sold in many areas in the form of fast food by street vendors who roast the skewers on a mangal over wood, charcoal, or coal.
