Baranjski kulen – delicija<br />

s okusom tradicije<br />

Baranja Kulen – a Delicacy<br />

with the Taste of Tradition<br />

Baranja je fascinantna regija omeđena rijekama<br />

Dunavom i Dravom, a sa sjevera mađarskom granicom.<br />

Upravo je i naziv regije nastao od mađarskog naziva<br />

Boranya što u prijevodu znači Majka vina jer su vinovu<br />

lozu u hrvatsko Podunavlje donijeli još stari Rimljani. Uz<br />

birana baranjska vina odlično se sljubljuje i tradicionalna<br />

hrana koja obiluje crvenom mljevenom paprikom.<br />

Crvena paprika je najvažniji začin u Baranji koji se<br />

uzgaja na mnogim gospodarstvima u svim baranjskim<br />

selima. Krajem ljeta, u vrijeme berbe paprike, fasade<br />

kuća se crvene od paprike koja se suši u dugačkim<br />

vijencima koje svakodnevno pletu vrijedne ženske ruke.<br />

Nakon sušenja paprika se melje na kamenim mlinovima<br />

kako bi zadržala sva svoja svojstva, među ostalima visok<br />

sadržaj vitamina C.<br />

Baranja is a fascinating region bordered by the rivers<br />

Danube and Drava, and in the north with the Hungarian<br />

border. The very name of the region originated from<br />

the Hungarian name Boranya which means Mother of<br />

Wine, because wine grape was brought to the Croatian<br />

Danube area by the ancient Romans. The selected wines<br />

from Baranja match perfectly with the traditional food<br />

abundant in ground red pepper.<br />

Red pepper is the most important spice in Baranja, grown<br />

on many farms in all villages in Baranja. At the end of<br />

summer, during the time of picking pepper, the house<br />

façades are all red with pepper drying in long strings<br />

braided daily by diligent female hands. After drying, the<br />

pepper is ground in stone mills in order to keep all its<br />

properties, among which a high content of vitamin C.
