Budla

(Goranski nadjev, Budel, Nadlavanje, Nadelo, Crnoluški želudac, Želodac, Mrkopaljski želudac)

Budla, goranski nadjev, crnoluški želudac, budel, or nadelo are just some of the names for this delicacy hailing from the Croatian region of Gorski Kotar. There are as many names as there are recipes for this meat product that is traditionally prepared with stale crustless bread, eggs, ham, bacon, onions, and seasonings such as salt and pepper.


The mixture is typically stuffed in pork casings, which are then either boiled or baked. When properly boiled or baked, budla is served in thick slices and paired with anything from bread to charcuterie, but it is most often used as a filling for various types of meat.


This flavorful meat product is also a regular staple of Easter festivities in the region.
