This time the challenge was a walnut potica. What is potica? Potica is a traditional Slovenian dish, a sweet rolled pastry with a filling, usually in the form of a roll or loaf. The most famous is walnut potica, but there are also variations with cottage cheese, poppy seeds, hazelnuts, etc. The preparation of potica is often part of holiday traditions and special occasions, holding a significant place in Slovenian cuisine.

But the challenge was not just any potica – a potica without wheat flour, yeast, and sugar. Can it taste as delicious as a classic potica and still look like the real deal? It might sound difficult and demanding, but it’s NOT! In the show, Katja and Jure demonstrate that making such a potica is easy, and the result is delightful.

The walnut potica prepared with this recipe is entirely free of added sugar, gluten, perfect for LCHF/KETO, Low Carb diets, and of course, suitable for diabetics.

Watch the show where you’ll learn everything from the dough preparation process to baking such a potica. The guest in this episode was Irma Gračnar from Agona, a company with a 30-year tradition in the field of nuts, their packaging, and processing.
