Demikát
Also known as: Demikátová polievka
Slovak bryndza-and-potato soup with caraway, paprika, chives and toasted bread.
About Demikát
SACR presents demikát as a traditional Slovak soup based on bryndza cheese. Potatoes and onion give this rendition its substantial body, alongside the cheese's distinctive dairy flavour.
Ground red paprika, caraway and black pepper provide the seasoning. Fresh chives add a herb finish, and sour cream is an optional enrichment of the smooth soup.
Cubes of bread toasted in rendered fat accompany the bowl. This presentation combines creamy cheese-and-potato soup with the contrasting texture of the bread pieces.
