🇭🇺 Hungary recipe

Pogácsa

Pogácsa are flaky, savory Hungarian biscuits that are a staple of the national snacking culture, found at every bakery, market, and family gathering. The dough is enriched with butter or lard and sour cream, then folded and rolled to create delicate layers. They can be flavored with cheese, pork crackling, or simply left plain. An egg wash gives them a gorgeous golden sheen.
