The Brodsko-Posavina region of Croatia, with its serene villages nestled on one side by the Sava River and on the other by the plains and gently rolling hills adorned with vineyards, gently leans against the edges of forests. Here, where the southern part of the fertile Slavonian plain merges into the Sava riverbed, has always been a Croatian borderland. Getting to know its people, heritage, culture, and tradition means discovering its wide Slavonian heart of hospitality.
The story of Slavonian cuisine is full of uniqueness. It begins with kulen, or kulin, made from the finest pork, dried and matured for over half a year to become a special delicacy served alone or accompanied by homemade cracklings and bacon. Another special tradition is the preparation of dishes over an open fire, such as grilling (especially carp) or cooking in a single pot, as local culinary masters still prepare the iconic fish stew - fiš or čobanac.
These are just parts of a rich table of traditional dishes that captivate with their distinctive flavors and aromas, impress with their skill and simplicity in preparation. Paired with the elegance and delicate aromas of fine wines from local vineyards, every meal becomes a true delight. Discover it for yourself at selected establishments known for upholding the standards of Croatian Traditional Flavors - Tastes of the Borderlands of Posavina.
Enjoy your meal!
