Reinling
The Reinling (also "Reindling") is a cup cake of the Carinthian cuisine.
The Reinling is also widespread in Slovenia , where it is called Pogača (pronounced "Pogatscha", regional - e.g. in Carinthian Slovenian - Pohača ) or Potica, Potize . In Lower Carinthia it is also called W (o) azas or W (o) azanes (especially by older people) (from Woaz “wheat”, but can also be called “maize” as in Styria), although this variant usually has no filling is.
It is a traditional sweet Easter dish made from yeast dough , but it was also used as a gift for various occasions in the past. The yeast dough is rolled with an abundance of sugar , cinnamon , raisins and butter and baked in a ceramic dish in the tube, in the original version without a hole. The rarer, not really traditional version of the puree with a more elaborate, more expensive walnut filling , but without raisins, is called nut potize . In order to distinguish it externally from the Reinling, another, rather flat shape is used.
The real Kärntner Reinling is traditionally baked in an old round mold, most of the molds being decorated with Christian symbols. This shape is called Rein or Reindl and resembles a saucepan. Today a ring cake pan is mostly used for the sake of simplicity .
Especially in Lower Carinthia, the Reinling is eaten for Easter snacks ( Easter ham , eggs, horseradish, etc.), however, as a bread substitute for this occasion, the Reinling is less sweet than a Reinling that is used as a pastry, e.g. B. with coffee is served. It also has a long tradition as an accompaniment to church soup .
