Benevolent gossip from headquarters:

It’s an art —
Croatian potica, a dessert for special occasions.
Potica (pronounced po-teetsa), aka povitica, orehnjaca or Croatian nut roll, are all the same baked delicacy served on special occasions.

Archbishop Cupich says it’s one of his favorites. Naturally! It’s a delicious blend of Mediterranean sunshine, Roman ruins, tamburitza music, urban cities like Zagreb, fairylands like Dubrovnik, with just a touch of soccer and Olympic competition tucked in.

The knack of making good potica is in rolling and stretching the dough. That is the art. Anyone can make the filling — but try stretching that dough paper thin and rolling the filling in it without tearing. Attempt the adventure anyway.

One of these days, I (or someone in our house) is gonna try this.
