This is my father’s recipe for potato soup which is called Bramboračka in Czech. These days we call it “Deda Soup” which translates to Grandfather Soup – because it’s his favorite and he gave us this recipe but for the sake of this post, we shall call this Czech Grandfather Soup aka Bramboračka. Now that...
Delicious Czech Sweet Buns are known as Buchty in the Czech Republic. They are traditional food made from yeast and can be filled with ground poppy seeds, cheese curd, lekvar (plum jam), jam or jelly and they are truly a Czech classic. They are not like a donut, but rather more like a sweet bun or roll....
Today I made some Květákové Placičky a Okurkový Salát otherwise known as Cauliflower Patties with Cucumber Salad. Some Czechs eat this as a meal served with simple boiled potatoes, others serve it with mashed potatoes. We like it as an afternoon snack or an appetizer. It’s delicious either way. Ingredients 1 cauliflower 3 eggs, separated 2/3 cup flour...
I call this Grandmother’s Czech Chicken Hack – 3 In One because it is really a shortcut to making three meals, baked chicken, chicken soup and a powerful healing chicken stock. Doesn’t it look delicious and full of healing goodness? Trust us, it is. Ingredients 1 large chicken 2 chicken breasts 2 onions, left whole 8 carrots,...
Sometimes I get a craving for a Czech dish, but realize that it is a beef dish and we don’t eat beef. Well, I’m not one to let that stop me. So this morning I was thinking about Koprovka which is a Dill gravy which is traditionally served with boiled beef. As I mentioned, we don’t do...
The Czechs are the #1 beer drinking nation in the world, consuming the most beer per capita in the world (160 liters or 43 gallons). They have been drinking beer since at least 900 A.D. Can this be healthy? I have a memory of both my mother and my grandmother telling me to drink a...
Czech love bread. They also love these little miniature baguette-like rolls called Rohlík. At the town square, on the metro, at the park or sitting on a tram – we’ve seen these offered and eaten just about everywhere that’s why we wanted to introduce you to the Rohlík, a Czech bread for anytime. A rohlík is an individual...
Kuba is a Czech mushroom barley risotto, kind of. It’s barley, or sometimes called groats cooked super soft and then baked with mushrooms. It’s the forest grown (dried) mushrooms that bring the taste of pure nature to your table. It’s something that tastes oh so gourmet, made at a time when families had little money....

Recipes call for using the most authentic Czech ingredients and sometimes, being so far from home, those ingredients are hard to find. It’s our hope that this list of awesome substitutions will help make your Czech...
Today, at the request of a friend at one of my favorite Facebook groups to hang out, Pečení v US, I posted a photo of these dumplings to share and I was asked to post the recipe, so here it is – the world’s easiest strawberry dumplings. When you are in a rush and don’t feel...

Václav Havel, former president of the Czech Republic, liked to take visiting politicians to Prague pubs. This is for the obvious reason that a known Prague specialty is without a doubt the local pubs, taverns, taprooms and beer-drinking establishments of all kinds. Of course, there is no better place for the meeting of presidents, politics &...
This is a Czech specialty. Czechs love mushrooms and when they are fried it is an especially special treat. Of course, in the US we prepare this from the mushrooms we find at the local grocery store, but when we’re in the Czech Republic, making these from fresh picked mushrooms is just heavenly. Ingredients for...
Beets are a popular crop in the Czech Republic and they are used in both sweet and savory dishes, in both cooked and their raw state. Today we made čokoládový dort z červené řepy which literally translates to chocolate cake from red beets. I know, I know… it sounds strange. But I promise you that you...
