Kecaný Svatební Koláč: The Saxon Kleckselkuchen Handed Around Before a Wedding
Kecaný koláč looks like an accident in the kitchen: stripes of poppy seed and blobs of jam spooned onto a layer of quark, almond streusel over the lot. In Saxony they call it Kleckselkuchen; it appeared around 1900 in Leipzig as a way to use up leftovers. In northern Bohemia it took on a wedding job - the bride's family hands it around to relatives before the big day. One of them landed on my table too, in the Česká Lípa area.
Hejnická putovnice: A Monastery Lager for the Pilgrimage Town of Hejnice
Hejnická putovnice is a pale unfiltered lager that the monastery in Hejnice, in the Frýdlant region, has brewed to order for it by the Volt microbrewery in Jablonec nad Nisou. It is named after the pilgrim on the label, striding briskly toward the basilica in Hejnice. It is a monastery beer without monks: monastic life in Hejnice ended in 1950, and the beer for pilgrims and spa guests is still sold here.
