Slow-roast Greater Poland duck served with modra kapusta (braised red cabbage with apples and cloves) and either pyzy (steamed yeast dumplings) or pyry (potatoes).
Greater Poland's duck dish gives Modra Kuchnia in Jeżyce its name; modra kapusta is the dialect word for red cabbage, and the duck-and-red-cabbage combination is the Sunday-lunch classic of the Wielkopolska canon. The duck is typically slow-roast for two to three hours and finished with stewed apples. The dish anchors menus at Ratuszova, Modra Kuchnia and the regional bistros around Stary Rynek.
