Hladetina

Head cheese or brawn is a cold cut terrine or meat jelly that originated in europe. however it is popular in the united states among the african-american and white population. in southern louisiana, hog's head cheese is a specialty that used to be a deli and butcher shop staple. it is made with flesh from the head of a calf or pig (less commonly a sheep or cow), typically set in aspic, and usually eaten cold, at room temperature, or in a sandwich. despite its name the dish is not a cheese and contains no dairy products. the parts of the head used vary, and may include the tongue and sometimes the feet and heart but do not commonly include the brain, eyes or ears. trimmings from more commonly eaten cuts of pork and veal are often used, with gelatin added as a binder. variations of head cheese exist throughout europe and the rest of the world, with differences in construction and ingredients. a version pickled with vinegar is known as souse. historically, meat jellies were made of the head of an animal, less its organs, which would be simmered to produce a naturally gelatinous stock that would congeal as the dish cooled. meat jellies made this way were commonly a peasant food and have been made since the middle ages. modern head cheese recipes may require additional gelatin, or more often need to be reduced to set properly.

Kobasica

A sausage is a type of meat product usually made from ground meat—often pork, beef, or poultry—along with salt, spices and other flavourings. other ingredients, such as grains or breadcrumbs may be included as fillers or extenders. when used as an adjective, the word sausage can refer to the loose sausage meat, which can be formed into patties or stuffed into a skin. when referred to as "a sausage", the product is usually cylindrical and encased in a skin. typically, a sausage is formed in a casing traditionally made from intestine, but sometimes from synthetic materials. sausages that are sold raw are cooked in many ways, including pan-frying, broiling and barbecuing. some sausages are cooked during processing, and the casing may then be removed. sausage-making is a traditional food preservation technique. sausages may be preserved by curing, drying (often in association with fermentation or culturing, which can contribute to preservation), smoking, or freezing. some cured or smoked sausages can be stored without refrigeration. most fresh sausages must be refrigerated or frozen until they are cooked. sausages are made in a wide range of national and regional varieties, which differ by the types of meats that are used, the flavouring or spicing ingredients (garlic, peppers, wine, etc.), and the manner of preparation. in the 21st century, vegetarian and vegan varieties of sausage which completely substitute plant-based ingredients for meat have become much more widely available and consumed.

Kulen

Kulen (pronounced [kǔlen]) is a type of flavored sausage made of minced pork that is traditionally produced in croatia (slavonia) and serbia (vojvodina). a regional festival of kulen is held annually in bački petrovac.a kind of kulen from syrmia has had its designation of origin protected in serbia by an organization from šid. there is also a local variety called slovak kulen made predominantly in bačka by local slovaks. a kind of kulen from slavonia has had its designation of origin protected in croatia by an organization from bošnjaci. in parts of slavonia, kulen is called kulin in ikavian accent. croatian baranya kulen (baranjski kulen) is protected by geographical indication (gi) status from the food and agriculture organization of the united nations.the meat is low-fat, rather brittle and dense, and the flavor is spicy with the hot red paprika bringing it aroma and colour, and garlic for additional spice. the original kulen recipe does not contain black pepper; its hot flavour comes from the paprika. the traditional time of producing kulen is during the pig slaughter done every autumn by most households. kulen matures during the winter; it can be eaten at this time, although not fully dried and cured yet, with very hot taste, but it will develop its full taste by the following summer. to produce a dryer, firmer kulen, it is sometimes kept buried under ashes, which act as a desiccant. kulen is a shelf-stable meat product, with a shelf life of up to two years when stored properly. the meat is stuffed and pressed into bags made of pork intestine, and formed into links that are usually around ten centimeters in diameter, and up to three times as long, weighing around a kilogram. the pieces of kulen are smoked for several months, using certain types of wood. after the smoking they are air-dried for another several months. this process can last up to a year. although similar to other air-dried procedures, the meat is fermented in addition to the air-drying. high-grade kulen is sometimes even covered with a thin layer of mold, giving it a distinct aroma. when the kulen meat is stuffed into the small intestine, the thinness makes it require less smoking and drying and thus also takes less time to mature. this type of sausage is often referred to as kulenova seka (literally kulen's sister). kulen is regarded as a premium domestically-made dried meat product, given that on the zagreb market even a low-grade kulen can cost much more than other types of sausages and is comparable to smoked ham. although it has also been produced commercially throughout former yugoslavia since world war ii, the industrial process of production is significantly different, resulting in major differences in appearance and aroma, although it is cheap compared to the genuine kulen. however an annual "kulenijada" festival is held in many croatian and serbian cities to honor the history and great regional masters of making kulen.

Pršut

Prosciutto crudo, in english often shortened to prosciutto ( prə-shoo-toh, proh-, italian: [proʃˈʃutto]), is italian uncooked, unsmoked, and dry-cured ham. prosciutto crudo is usually served thinly sliced. several regions in italy have their own variations of prosciutto crudo, each with degrees of protected status, but the most prized are prosciutto di parma pdo from emilia-romagna and prosciutto di san daniele pdo from friuli venezia giulia. unlike speck (speck alto adige pgi) from the south tyrol region, prosciutto is not smoked. in italian, prosciutto means any kind of ham, either dry-cured (prosciutto crudo or simply crudo) or cooked (prosciutto cotto), but in english-speaking countries, it usually means either italian prosciutto crudo or similar hams made elsewhere. however, the word "prosciutto" itself is not protected; cooked ham may legally be, and in practice is, sold as prosciutto (usually as prosciutto cotto, and from italy or made in the italian style) in english-speaking regions.

Collard is a group of certain loose-leafed cultivars of brassica oleracea, the same species as many common vegetables including cabbage (capitata group) and broccoli (italica group). collard is a member of the viridis group of brassica oleracea. american collard cultivars are more correctly placed in the viridis cultivar group due to a high genetic similarity with cabbage, although older publications often include them within the acephala group (kale). the name "collard" comes from the word "colewort" (a medieval term for non-heading brassica crops).the plants are grown as a food crop for their large, dark-green, edible leaves, which are cooked and eaten as vegetables, mainly in kashmir, brazil, portugal, zimbabwe, south africa, the american south, tanzania, uganda, kenya, the balkans, and northern spain. collard greens have been eaten for at least 2,000 years, with evidence showing that the ancient greeks cultivated several types of the plant.
