ABOUT "PEKA"

«Peka» is one of the best known traditional Croatian dishes. Though simple at first glance, «Peka» requires a great deal of skill and experience. The majority of gourmands regard food prepared under a peka as the ultimate in grilled dishes. This simple accessory – a simple domed lid (shaped as a cupola) – can be made of metal, thinner or thicker, often of cast iron, but true connoisseurs are particularly appreciative of the earthenware peka. Food cooked under peka, be it in a fireproof pot or directly on a stone slab, comprises meat with vegetables, usually veal, lamb and yearling beef, covered with potatoes and other vegetables.
