A few local recipes for masters in the kitchen
Traditional Modranské frkacule
Frkacules are an addition to the festive soup, which is usually prepared for weddings, feasts or holidays. 10 dkg of coarse flour and a little fat are added to one egg. So for a small spoon. Knead the dough, roll it into a circle and cut it into small diamond-shaped pieces. These can be placed on a grooved stick, and with the help of a wooden spoon, we turn them on a plate and snort them. Hence the name. We have to let them dry for at least a day and then we can put them in, for example, chicken soup.
Bean soup "fazulnačka"
We put the beans in a pot with water and let them stand until the next day. The next day, we cook it, and when the beans are half soft, we add cleaned and chopped vegetables. Add salt and cook until soft. Thicken the soup with a stew made from lard, flour, onion, garlic and ground pepper. Season the beans with salt and black pepper. When it's ready, add finely chopped parsley. We can serve with wide noodles. If you think you have an even better recipe for bean soup, you can take part in the Budmericka fazuľovica competition, which takes place in the grounds of the manor park in Budmericie.
The local wines taste the best with sciaccanica
Mash half a kilo of boiled potatoes, add 300 grams of plain flour and salt. Then, shape the dough into a roll. Cut it into smaller parts and roll them into patties. Put cracklings and a teaspoon of semolina in the middle, which will soak up the grease during baking. Season the top with salt and pepper and press the edges together so that the filling stays inside. Now comes the squeeze that gave them their name. Finally, just brush with egg and bake until golden.
Sciskanice were traditionally served with bean soup or just with local wine.
