Late autumn fruit - made for the finest cakes
All the fruits taste great raw, in their best form, but when you've had enough of them, you can use them not only in jams and marmalades, but also to make the most fragrant, aromatic and delicious cakes.
„Crno zlato“ začina
Crni papar imao je važnu ulogu tijekom ljudske povijesti i bio je cijenjen začin već od drevnih vremena. Fascinatna povijest crnog papara počinje u Indiji, koja je i danas jedan od najvećih proizvođača crnog papara, a gdje se koristi već više od 4000 godina. Od Indije se proširio do drevnih Egipćana, Grka i Rimljana.
Late Summer at the Market
For you, we took a walk through the popular Rijeka market, or "placa" as Rijeka people call it, and made sure that it is rightly reputed as one of the best in the country.
Tomato - a vegetable (or a fruit?) so important that it has its own museum
Although nowadays tomatoes are available all year round, their season is right now when they are ripe, sweet, and red. They are the best raw, with a grain of salt and a drop of olive oil. But it is also fantastic in salsa, thick soups, salads, on focaccias and pizzas, in parmigiana, and in thousands of other recipes where it is irreplaceable.
