The photo adventure in Rijeka

We had a deal. We are off to Rijeka. For many reasons. One of them was to make a food photography workshop, taste some delicacies of coastal area Kvarner and to hang out with some familiar faces.

Recipes
Gingerbread cookies

When I was a kid, no parish fair could go by without buying cookies from the gingerbread man. Fine, sweet and aromatic. That moment when you bite into the gingerbread and wait for the aroma of the honey and sweetness disperse over your taste buds. Mmmm. Christmas was also unimaginable without gingerbreads, because they were used as decorations for the Christmas tree. Even though there are various recipes with many additions, the beauty somehow still remains in the minimalism and unique taste of chestnut honey in the pastry made of flour, sugar, butter and eggs. Try it on the first occasion you get the chance.

Stories
About Dalmatian pašticada

“Do you have a good recipe for pašticada”, I was asked by the manager of Kuhaona. Talking to me, a woman from Dalmatia, with long-years of service in the kitchen – and I am still thinking before I act – obviously having much trust in my culinary and gastronomic knowledge. I jump to the offer, and before I start the story on a pašticada recipe that I love, I have to repeat some of the numerous insights regarding this symbol of Dalmatian cuisine.

Squash strudels
