Czernina · Poznań

A Greater Poland soup of duck or goose broth thickened with the animal's blood, soured with vinegar and sweetened with dried fruit, served with kluski lane (egg noodles).

Czernina is the most Wielkopolska of all dishes and the most polarising of all Polish soups. The dish dates to at least the 17th century, when blood-thickened soups were common across Slavic Europe, and survived in Greater Poland after they faded elsewhere. The sweet-sour balance from vinegar and dried plums or pears distinguishes the Poznań version. In folk tradition, a serving of czernina was the signal a suitor's marriage proposal had been declined.
