What did the Beskid Highlanders eat?
The cuisine of the Beskids and Cieszyn Silesia was very simple. Food was provided by agriculture, fishing, and pastoralism. Culinary traditions therefore grew based on nature's gifts. The basis of the menu was grain products and legumes. Potatoes and cabbage prepared in many ways dominated the tables. Fish and meat were eaten less frequently, but they also have a place in Beskid tradition.
Interestingly – people rarely ate at the table. Highlanders working in the fields ate meals right there every day, drinking them with raw or soured milk, or buttermilk. The table was used only on holidays or important occasions.
Culinary traditions at the Beskidy Holiday House
Visiting Wisła, tourists have the opportunity to taste a whole range of local, traditional specialties. Cheeses made from sheep's milk in many varieties – from world-famous oscypek to bundz and more. Trout, which tastes here like nowhere else. We are well aware that a mountain stay should have many faces and that is why our guests returning from mountain trails can taste regional specialties prepared in our kitchen.
The Beskidy Holiday House in Wisła offers accommodation with meals, and among the culinary highlights of the region, you can find:
– Mountain or shepherd’s salad. The main ingredient of the first is smoked trout (a fish living in mountain streams), the second – smoked curd cheese. Both fish and curds were the basis of the traditional cuisine of the Beskid highlanders. Vegetables that can be grown in the garden during the summer season accompany the fish and curd. It’s homey but very tasty.
– Regional burger – looks like a traditional burger known from popular fast-food chains but hides a little secret. It’s oscypek cheese added instead of yellow cheese. This small detail creates the unique taste of the Beskid burger. It is unknown in the lowlands.
– Highlander’s board for two – a set of appetizers for a romantic dinner and more. Among others, the board includes korbaczyki – a delicacy known only in the mountains. It is a type of cheese made from cow's milk, taking the shape of intricately braided plaits or braids.
