Croatian Savoury Baking cookbook is divided into 5 chapters, covering bread, burek, pies, pastries and snacks.
All recipes include ingredients expressed in both grams and cups (metric and imperial measuring system).
1 | BREAD. This chapter features traditional, rustic loaves that have always been the staple in Croatian households. From our famous bread under the peka bell (but baked in the oven), old-fashioned cornbread to intricately designed Easter braided bread.
2 | BUREK. Here we work with phyllo pastry (burek) filled with meat, cheese, spinach and potato. Aside from burek, you will learn to bake štrukli and bučnica (savoury pumpkin strudel).
3 | PIES. In Croatia, a pie translates as pogača. This ancient flat bread is enriched with various fillings, such as anchovis, Swiss chard, walnuts and cottage cheese. The star recipes, soparnik and rudarska greblica, are our protected cultural heritage.
4 | PASTRIES. Get ready for the rich spread of morning pastries, from kifle (milky finger rolls), slanci (soft and salty bread sticks) to pletenice (braided buns). You will fall in love with the continental breakfast.
5 | SNACKS. Become a star baker who knowns how to throw a fabulous party with plenty of snacks and munchies. Learn to make puffs with potatoes, cheese, pork scratchings, flaky crackers, soft and bouncy kiflice and many more finger-licking bites.
