Strange and blessed plant, acacia is a true synthesis of paradoxes! It
grows almost instantaneously, wherever there is not enough water for
something else to develop, having a hard, veined wood. Its thorns are very
much like spears, while the fowers are as sweet as honey. Thousands of years
ago, acacia was worshiped for its force and generosity.
Recipe:
The filling:
• 1 kg of acacia flowers
• 100 ml water
• 1 cup of nutmeg
• 1 egg white
Carefully break the stems and the leaves and wash the flowers.
Boil the water, add the flowers then stir till they get soft and form a paste.
Let them cool off.
Strongly mix with nuts and egg white, then let it breathe.
The dough:
• ½ kilo of flour
• salt
• 1 yolk
• 1 glassful of oil
• 1 cup of warm water
Knead well, stretch it into a 2-3 mm thick sheet.
Slowly fill with the flower paste and roll it.
Brush the dough with oil and yolk to prevent it from sticking.
Put it in the oven at a medium temperature for about 3 quarters of an
hour.
Everyone in Transylvania makes this “cake”, but there
are as many ways of preparing it as huts around the place.
Recipe:
Slices of cold, hardened polenta
1 tablespoon of pepper ( optional )
Lard for frying
Now, the easy part: heat some lard, mix it with pepper and fry the slices of
polenta on both sides.
Then the hard part starts:
Make some thicker garlic sauce, mix it with tomato paste and pour over
the polenta (Halmeu)
Make a dish of peas or beans and add to the polenta (Cluj)
Wallow the fryed polenta (without pepper) through marmalade and sugar
and then eat. (Viseu)
Put cheese over the polenta while still in the pan. (Sibiu, Fagaras)
Chop slices of onion and put over the polenta. (Nasaud)
Whisk some eggs with cheese and put over the polenta. (Sighisoara)
Chop some dried plums with dried meat and put then in a layer over the
polenta. (Hateg)
Fry together with sausages, dried meat and slices of bacon. (Apuseni)
