The word “Adzhika” has Abkhazian roots and means “salt”. The Abkhazians call this seasoning “apyrpyl-jika”, which means “pepper salt”, and also “adzhiktzattsa” – “salt rubbed with something”. We'll cook. Georgian green adjika without cooking. Of course, ideally, such adjika should be prepared using a mortar to rub seeds. But we'll simplify the recipe a little bit, and we'll do with a meat grinder.

• 150 Bulgarian peppers
• 100g cilantro
• 100g parsley

2. Greens are also well washed under running water. Peeling walnuts and garlic.
3. With the help of a meat grinder, we grind two types of pepper, garlic, greens and walnuts. The resulting mass is well mixed to homogeneity.
   
   
   
4. Add to the mixture ground coriander, hops-suneli and Utskho-suneli. It's a good mix again.
