Burgenland has traditionally always been good for a surprise and that visitors can always expect something new. However, some are surprised and delighted by the groundbreaking culinary originality.
The diverse range stretches from the South Burgenland snail to Pannonian saffron, sturgeon caviar and the gourmet pigeon to crayfish.
And the resourceful Burgenland folks will soon be waiting to offer the next culinary delicacy, which will, as it were, conjure up the sun on the palates of gourmets...
Slow but delicious
You can see from name where the snail feels at home. Thus the vineyards of southern Burgenland have always been a paradise for the “Helix Pomatia”, which is the scientific name for the native snail variety.
On the trail of the sturgeon
Russian and Siberian sturgeon in southern Burgenland waters? Is that even possible? Yes, it is. And it’s really excellent.
Tradition reloaded
Saffron has been grown in the Pannonian region for centuries. The product has been somewhat overlooked in recent decades and is now being looked after with even more care and attention to quality and purity.
