Lower Silesian Foodways

Dolny Ślōnsk

Regional

The north-west around Wrocław and the Sudetes: ⚠ ITS POPULATION IS ALMOST ENTIRELY POST-1945. German Lower Silesians were expelled and Poles resettled from Lwów, Wilno and central Poland, so the kitchen here is an eastern Polish one on Silesian land, plus what the landscape gives — mushrooms, game, river fish, Sudeten mountain food.

What is recorded

  • Lower Silesia’s population is almost entirely post-1945: German inhabitants were expelled and Poles resettled, many from territories annexed by the Soviet Union. The food cooked there today is substantially an eastern Polish kitchen on Silesian land, and saying so is more accurate than presenting an unbroken local tradition. documented
