Peka Lesson & Olive Oil Tasting
€140.00
Embark on a true Croatian culinary adventure with one of the country’s most beloved traditional dishes: Peka. While it may appear simple at first glance, preparing Peka is an art form—requiring time, skill, and generations of experience. Cooked slowly under a bell-shaped iron dome, nestled in hot coals or atop a stone slab, this dish blends tender meat—typically veal, lamb, or yearling beef—with potatoes and seasonal vegetables for a rich, hearty flavor you won’t forget.
At OPG Vukojević, a charming family-run farm just outside Dubrovnik, you’ll discover the beauty of this age-old cooking technique alongside another Croatian treasure—olive oil. Then, enjoy a rustic farm-to-table Peka lunch prepared the traditional way. Whether you’re a food lover, nature enthusiast, or curious traveler, this gourmet experience is a true taste of authentic Dalmatia.
