In July 2019, the villages of Zhitnitsa and Smilyan officially twinned to put beans and sausage in a single dish. The twinning happened after the people of Zhitnitsa presented to the people of Smilyan in May 2019 their idea of the revival of the traditional recipe for bean stew with sausages. We shot a special video for them, inviting them to unite. You can see more about the twinning and the fair here. https://bobsnadenitsa.bg/
