Strapačky
Strapačky or sztrapacska is a dish popular in Slovakia and Hungary. It is similar to bryndzové halušky where the base compound of the dish is halušky ; however, in Slovakia, instead of bryndza, stewed sauerkraut is used. In Hungary, sztrapacska is traditionally accompanied with juhtúró, the local equivalent to bryndza. Residents of Vanyarc, located in Hungary approximately 80 kilometers from Budapest, have held a Festival of Strapačky every September for almost 40 years. Ethnic Slovaks from all over Hungary compete for prizes at the festival.
