Book excerpt: Enjoy this sampler of a diverse culinary heritage and culture, replete with 200 delicious recipes, a section on well-known Slovenian beers and wines, and stories of a fascinating past. Tucked between the foothills of the Alps, the coast of the Adriatic Sea, and the beginning of the Panonian plains to the East, Slovenia is a beautiful land in Central Europe. Among the popular draws are its peaceful Mediterranean affordability, scenic aspect and increased accessibility and affordability. Newly independent from Yugoslavia at the end of the 20th century, Slovenia emerged fairly recently with a resilient culture and rich arts scene that has caused tourism to flourish. This book presents perhaps the only comprehensive guide to the country's cuisine. Ranging from such perennial favourites as Friko (Hearty Potato Pancake), linkrofi (Meat Dumplings), Bakala (Dried Salt Cod Pate) and Kostanjeva Juba (Chestnut Soup) to more unusual preparations like Crni Rioto.(Black Risotto with Squid, ink included) and Meerli (Baked Encrusted Pig or Veal Lung -- a version of Haggis), Slovenian fare is both hearty and wholesome. Not only do we discover these tasty dishes, but also ruminations on golf, the capital city of Ljubljana, and the art of Slovenian bee-keeping. Tales of such legendary locals as the 'sunshine salesman' and a Slovenian Robin Hood along with ghosts and fairytale castles also bring the culture alive in this unique volume.

Book Recipes from a Slovenian Kitchen

Download or read book Recipes from a Slovenian Kitchen written by Janez Bogataj and published by Aquamarine. This book was released on 2014-04-07 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Slovenia is a small country with dramatic contrasts - from an alpine climate in the north, through the wineproducing hills of Stajerska, to the sub-Mediterranean region in the south. These geographical features lend varied regional emphasis to the cuisine, which is characterized by simple country fare, often enhanced by the dishes of the surrounding countries - Italy, Austria, Hungary and Croatia. The many tempting recipes in this book include the nutritious and tasty Chicken Noodle Soup, the peppery spices of Millet-Stuffed Turnips, and Poppy Potica, a traditional sweet bread. The dishes tend to incorporate generous amounts of carbohydrate and fat to support the peasant diet, but have been adapted to suit a modern, healthy lifestyle, while staying true to the sustaining and wholesome fare of the country.

Book The Discursive Construction of Class and Lifestyle

Download or read book The Discursive Construction of Class and Lifestyle written by Ana Tominc and published by John Benjamins Publishing Company. This book was released on 2017-11-15 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses transformations in the construction of culinary taste, lifestyle and class through cookbook language style in post-socialist Slovenia. Using a critical discourse studies approach it demonstrates how the representation of culinary advice in standard and celebrity cookbooks has changed in recent decades as a result of general social transformations such as postmodernity and globalization. It argues that compared to the standard cookbooks, where nutritionist ideology is at the forefront, the celebrity cookbooks reflect the conversational, hybrid nature of the genre, through which they promote global foodie discourse, while at the same time localizing the global trends to the Slovene context. The book lays at the intersection of discourse analysis, sociology, food, cultural, communication and media studies and (post-) socialism and should be of interest to those interested in celebrities, food media, socialism and post-socialism, cookbooks, globalization and discourse change.
