Visiting today an excellent Polish glass manufacturer @huta_julia I’ve been positively surprised to find their works also in the manufacture’s cafe 😍 surely everything tastes even better drunk or eaten from crystal glass 😁

While 10 years ago most Polish wines were produced

While 10 years ago most Polish wines were produced with piwi grape varieties, nowadays more and more producers experiment with old vinifera varieties like Chardonnay, Riesling or Pinot Noir. Some of them used to be grown in the so called Northern Silesia (nowadays mostly part of the Lubuskie region) already before the WW2. The results are getting better every year, so I grabbed this nice bottle of Pinot Noir while in Poland 🇵🇱🍷

This is one of the wonderful specialities of the Polish cuisine: fermented mushrooms 🍄 I made them last autumn trying to preserve the great wealth of mushrooms I picked in the forest nearby. Fermented mushrooms or kiszone grzyby, as they are called in Polish, are listed in the Slow Food Ark of Taste 🐌

#żurek made in a less popular way… in Poland, it’s usually made with rye, or oats - especially among the Lemko people, but here I used flour from my own maize 🌽

The #biodiversity of #beans from my garden 🪴 La

The #biodiversity of #beans from my garden 🪴 Last season I sow many varieties from different European countries and these are those that yielded some crop:
1. A local bean variety from the hills around Vranje, Serbia - seeds were a gift from Slow Food Dorćol 😍
2. Black beans from Alps around Biella, Italy
3. Albanian beans with an eye from the area of Shkodra - seeds from @marjola_rukaj_photographer ❤️
4. Swedish brown beans #brunabönor - a rare variety from the island of Öland, protected in the #slowfood #arkoftaste 🐌
5. Piatella pisana, a Tuscan variety from the area of Pisa - I bought the seeds at a market organized by @slowbeans_comunitaleguminosa
6. An extremely rare Polish variety - Polish Bean Bean - cultivated and promoted by the members of @slowfooddolnyslask
7. Klosterfrauen, an old Swiss variety 🫘
