The Georgian meal is always a combination of four, five, six or more dishes served at the same time. Each dish is intended to be one part of that bigger whole, as are my recipes. A stew, for instance, is not seen as an all-in-one main course but as one of a meal’s components, where it stretches to more people. So it’s hard to say exactly how many people each recipe will feed but I’ve included indications whenever possible. If you cook the recipes as standalone dishes, use the lower number in my serving estimates.
