One of Slovenia’s most popular dishes, Idrijan žlikrofi are bicorne-hat-shaped ravioli filled with potatoes, onions, and bacon. My recipe adds onion textures inspired by the Strelec restaurant in Ljubljana.

Esihflajš, vinegar meat, is a salad made from the leftovers of the traditional Sunday lunch beef soup. Here, I’m using beef tongue and mixing it with my own orange wine vinegar.

Inspired by a recipe from Wylie Dufresne plus culinary memories of my recent Slovenian trip, this pizza combines beef tongue, pickled red onion, Emmental, horseradish, and chives.
