Utopenci

Utopenci is a popular Czech dish that is commonly served in pubs and bars as a snack. It consists of sausages that are pickled in a tangy marinade with bay leaves, onions, black pepper, and other spices. The dish is traditionally eaten cold with white bread.

The name utopence is translated to drowned men due to a belief that the inventor of the dish drowned while he was working on his mill. Others believe that the name comes from the fact that the sausages are drowned in the marinade.
