    INGREDIENTS OF TRADITIONAL KOROŠKA FOOD FOR DIFFERENT

    SHROVE TUESDAY
    Like in other parts of Slovenia it is traditional to eat doughnuts on this day.
    Doughnuts:

    Ingredients for doughnuts are: flour, yeast, milk, eggs, salt, egg
    yolks, sugar, oil, a lemon peel.

    EASTER
    Easter is the most important church festival of Catholics and it is a custom to eat the best
    food for Easter, like šarkelj.

    Šarkelj or potica:

    We need: flour, butter or margarine, egg yolks, milk, sugar and salt.
    And for the filling you need raisins, cinnamon, sugar for making the
    dough.

    WEDDING DAY
    A wedding day was the only day when more meals were served in Koroška in the past. At
    midnight instead of a cake mežerli was served.
    Mežerli:
    Mežerli is a dish made from pork heart, lungs, white bread, eggs, cream, onion, marjoram,
    salt and pepper.

    HARVEST
    At harvest time neighbours usually helped other neighbours at work. Food on those days
    was a little bit different than usual, everyday food.
    Žganci (mush):

    Žganci is a very famous dish in Koroška and it is not very difficult to


    prepare it.
    The only ingredients for this dish are salt, buckwheat flour, lard with
    cracklings and water.

    CHRISTMAS
    Christmas time was celebrated also in Koroška, but it was not that abundant in everything as
    it is today. On Christmas Eve we still nowadays eat smoked ham, sausages and fruit bread.
    Rye bread:

    Ingredients for rye bread are: milk, sugar, yeast, salt, white flour,
    rye flour, whole wheat flour, melted butter.

    CONCLUSION:
    Koroška traditional dishes appear in almost all restaurants and they are very well known.
