"This is very old recipe from 17th century Zagreb. The only place you could get this recipe in Zagreb area was mountain hut on Japetic hill near Samobor. Unfortunately, the hut is closed now so you can get this recipe only in some old Zagreb households or if you invite yourself at my house. I am posting this recipe to save it for future generations."
