About Bryndzové pirohy
Slovakia.travel presents bryndzové pirohy as a traditional Slovak speciality. Its potato-and-wheat dough encloses a filling of bryndza, potato, butter and sour cream, with young onion selected from the herb choices.
Sheep’s-milk bryndza gives the filling the strong aroma and salty character described by the source. Smoked bacon and its cooking fat add savoury richness, balanced by the sour-cream topping.
Folded half-moon dumplings are served on a plate with bacon, butter and chopped onion greens. Buttermilk is selected from the suggested accompanying drinks.
