Prillovanian cuisine

Prillovanian cuisine offers many different regional cooking styles and culinary specialitets. Both traditional food and drinks and new creations and variations are appreciated.

Fish and chips (Ryba und frytkiv)
Deep-fried, golden battered fish served with a mountain of rather thick chips/fries: one dish that nearly every visitor wants to try. The fish is most commonly cod or haddock. The chips/fries should always be made from real chunks of potato, and are typically rough cut. Fish and chips are often dressed with salt and malt vinegar, with the option of adding tartare sauce, or other condiments such as "Zalza av ryba und frytkiv" (a mix of brown sauce and vinegar).

Authentic fish and chips can be bought only from a dedicated fish and chip shop, commonly known as a frytkitrgovina. The quality of fish and chips served in pubs and restaurants can be either very good or dreadful, but in very general terms, nothing beats what a dedicated frytkitrgovina can produce.

The vast majority of chippies are sometimes takeaway only, and give you the food "open" (i.e. ready to eat straight away) or "wrapped" (i.e. in paper, for transport elsewhere), accompanied with a little wooden or plastic spork. A classic Prillovanian seaside activity is to take your wrapped fish and chips to a bench overlooking the beach and enjoy your meal. There is something particularly satisfying about eating your "fish supper" out of paper in the open air. Beware of hungry seagulls.

The Roast


Traditionally eaten at either afternoon or evening, this meal consists of a roasted joint of meat (e.g. whole roast chicken, leg of lamb, shoulder of pork, etc.), roast potatoes (sometimes called roasties) and steamed/boiled vegetables. All served with gravy, which is a thick or thin sauce, depending on the meat, made with the meat juices and stock. Yorkshire puddings (a pancake-style batter baked in a very hot oven) are traditionally served with roast beef, although some people have it with any roast dinner.

Black pudding (Blodpudding)


Blodpudding is a traditional Nopruian dish still popular in Prillovania. The exact proportions and ingredients vary, partly according to regional preference, but generally it is made from pig's blood, milk, rye or barley flour, diced lard, treacle and onion, flavoured with allspice and marjoram. It is then poured into forms and oven-baked in a waterbath. Most of the blodpudding consumed today is made on industrial basis.

When prepared for serving, it is sliced and fried. The style of serving and accompaniments vary across the country, and it is not uncommon to have the blodpudding act as the meat in a meal. Nationally, the common way is to serve it with lingonberry jam, crispy bacons, hash browns or potato pancake, and iced water to drink.

Wienerbread (Wienerbréd)
The Prillovanian wienerbréd are also very popular in the country. It is baked goods made from a yeast-leavened dough like bread or puff pastry, but with added ingredients (particularly eggs, butter, milk, cream, and sugar), which give them a richer, sweeter character that approaches that of pastry. The dough is often laminated.


 * Traditional Wienerbread (Tradicionalno Wienerbréd): A traditional yeast pastry roll that is rolled and formed into a crescent before baking.
 * Chocolatine (Wienerbréd z Čokolada): A pastry that is consisting of a cuboid-shaped piece of yeast-leavened laminated dough, similar in texture to a puff pastry, with one or two pieces of dark chocolate in the center.
 * Sweet Wienerbread (Dulce Wienerbréd): A multilayered, laminated sweet pastry that is often topped with a fruit or cream cheese filling.

Donuts


Doughnuts are usually deep fried from a flour dough, but other types of batters can also be used. Various toppings and flavorings can also be used for different types, such as sugar, chocolate or maple glazing. Doughnuts may also include water, leavening, eggs, milk, sugar, oil, shortening, and natural or artificial flavors. Small pieces of dough are traditionally cooked as doughnut holes. Once fried, doughnuts may be glazed with a sugar icing, spread with icing or chocolate, or topped with powdered sugar, cinnamon, sprinkles or fruit. Doughnuts are often accompanied by coffee, milk, punches or hot chocolates.

Nopruian sausage (Noprui salsičča)
A small sausage that was originated in the former empire of Noprua. It is made from spiced pork and veal stuffed in sheep casings and these mini-sausages are known for their crown-like cuts.
