Soparnik is the savoury chard pie from the Poljica region just south of Split: paper-thin dough stretched over a chard, onion and parsley filling, baked over hot coals.
Soparnik comes from the medieval Republic of Poljica, a self-governing peasant community in the hills south of Split that survived from the 13th to the 19th century. The dish is now protected by Croatia as intangible cultural heritage and was inscribed into UNESCO's safeguarding list. The Split version is served as a marenda mid-morning snack at most Veli Varos konobas, often with new olive oil and a glass of Plavac mali.
