MASHROOMS SOUP

Slovenia is a country covered with forests. Hiking through in the woods and picking up mushrooms is one of the most common hobbies of Slovenian people. We are preparing mushrooms in many different ways. Very traditional mushroom dish is a mushroom soup. It is usually served in restaurants as a starter, but it can also be served as a main dish together with buckwheat spoon bread, see the recipe.

JOTA

Jota is like a hotpot, thick soup or a vegetable-meat stew. This very traditional dish comes from Western part of Slovenia, Primorska Region. It can be made with sour cabbage or sour turnips and potatoes, beans and a beat of ham or sausages. It is what we call a real winter dish.

COTTAGE CHEESE CAKE

Sometimes we taste a dish that is just delicious. We would like to make it at home but we do not have a recipe. If you try to do it and you are lucky it will taste like the real thing. This cottage cheese cake is something like that. I ate it, I liked it and I did it with a combination of two recipes that I knew. And I still make it frequently.
