Käferbohnensalat
A salad made with Käferbohnen, a type of scarlet runner bean, dressed with pumpkin seed oil, vinegar, onions, and sometimes hard-boiled eggs. It's a hearty and flavorful salad that highlights the region's unique beans.
Steirisches Kürbiskernöl
Not a dish, but a crucial ingredient! Styrian pumpkin seed oil is dark green, nutty, and rich in flavor. It's used extensively in salads, soups, and even desserts. It's considered a local treasure and is often enjoyed simply with bread.
