Čvarci is a part of the Serbian culinary tradition. They got their name from the verb čvariti (to melt), which refers to their process of obtaining (melt bacon, lard, or fry so that you can hear sizzling).
By-products also occur during the formation of fat. These by-products are, in fact čvarci ( pork greaves). In order to get as much fat as possible, they are carefully pressed and squeezed. Also, they were not allowed to burn, because that would mean that the fat also burned, and as such it was not good for use.
Soon, people realized how delicious greaves are, so they started to gain more and more popularity. With greater use, greaves removed the necessary fat from the throne and became a more expensive product. Namely, according to some records, the price of fat was, in the beginning, significantly higher than the price of greaves. Over time, that situation reversed.
Pork, ie its lard and bacon are key to preparation. Some people use only bacon, because fat can have an unpleasant odor. If both are used they should be melted separately. The ingredients are cut into smaller cubes of equal size to melt evenly. Then put in a deep bowl without a lid and add a little water.

PIHTIJE
Pihtije, pitije, hladetina, aspik ... or some would just call it frozen soup, in essence it is a soup, a very strong soup, more precisely a concentrate of pork soup. In fact, it is not a soup made of meat, but of pork legs or other parts of a pig that have a lot of gelatin in them. Not to be confused, the original old pihtije is a poor dish where parts of the pig were used that could not be used in any other way, more precisely from the hoofs or from the already mentioned legs. The fact that over time this dish has become "fancy" due to various additives or names, or changes and shortening of the preparation time due to the addition of gelatin to ordinary water, cannot be compared to the original recipe for pihtije. Someone put parts of a pig that have meat on them in pihtije, but in order for them to tighten. But you can't do pihtije without parts such as hoofs - because of the tendons, skin, cartilage, from which the soup becomes - pihtije.
