Kasnocken

(Pinzgauer Kasnocken)

Kasnocken is a savory dish made by coating small dumplings with melted cheese and caramelized onions. The dish is said to originate from Austria’s Pinzgau region (congruent with the Zell am See district), and in line with the place of origin, the cheese used when preparing the dish is the Pinzgauer Bierkäse, characterized by its strong odor and mild flavors.


Since this is one hearty meal, a shot of schnapps is traditionally taken afterwards for improving digestion.
