Everyday Fare With Extraordinary Flair
Kulajda is a thick and creamy Czech mushroom soup with potatoes and dill. It has a well-balanced sweet and sour flavor profile similar to Borscht. And it’s quick and easy to make in just 30 minutes!
I first had Kulajda Polévka in Prague a couple years ago. It was a cool late-July day and I ate it at an outdoor café. I enjoyed every moment, especially being surrounded by such lovely, unique architecture!
…In this recipe for Czech Pickled Cheese (aka Nakládaný Hermelín), a creamy cheese with a bloomy rind that’s similar to Camembert is sliced, stuffed with a savory filling, and cured in oil. It’s the ultimate keto pub food in Prague! I saw Nakládaný Hermelín at least two or three times on menus at different pubs in Prague before I decided to order it. Sometimes it was called Pickled Cheese and other times it was referred to as Marinated Cheese. I had no idea what to expect! But I’m a cheese lover through and through and I decided to give it a try....
