The Flavours of Ribnica
Almost every small or large Slovenian area boasts authentic local cuisine and each place has some typical local dishes. Ribnica is not known only for its woodenware and pottery, but also for various traditional dishes that were prepared by our grandmothers back in the day. Two of such one-of-a-kind local dishes are the Ribn'ška trojka stew and the Ribn'ška povanca dessert, which are still popular with many a housewife from this area.
Ribn’ška trojka (The Ribnica Trio)
Is a stew whose main ingredient are beans of the ribn’čan variety, which is one of the three indigenous Slovenian bean varieties. This particular variety originates from Hrovača, a village near Ribnica, where until recently the so-called Bean Day was held as a standalone event every year, for the past two years, however, it has been part of the annual Ribnica Fair.
As the name suggests, there are three basic ingredients: locally-grown red ribn’čan beans, yellow carrots and kohlrabi. Sometimes potatoes are also added.
Ribn’ška povanca
Ribn’ška povanca is a tasty must-try local dessert. Povanca was traditionally baked in all local villages, wherever they had a farm and cows, as milk, butter and cream are the three main ingredients.
Meat žinkrofi
Prepare delicious meat žlinkrofi for family and friends. They are great as a side dish or as a main course.
Carob žinkrofi
A typical local dessert are carob žlinkrofi. They are traditionally made during the carnival, but you can, of course, prepare them on any other cold or warm day.
