Slavonia and Baranja are known for their pork and cured meat products such as kulen or kulin, kulenova seka, and čvarci – sort of pork crisps. Pig fat is valuable foodstuff used in the preparation of many savory and sweet dishes like salenjaci, homemade dough filled with homemade jam of plums or apricots.
Čobanac is the Slavonian stew originally prepared in nature by čobani – shepherds. Its preparation includes several types of meat and hot peppers. Another Slavonian famous specialty with hot and sweet paprika as its main spice is Fiš paprikaš – fish stew soup made of several types of freshwater fish. At the beginning of each meal, Slavonian plum brandy known as Šljivovica is served as an aperitif.
