Originating from the Croatian municipality of Hlebine, this soup is made with a combination of oil, corn flour, garlic, paprika powder, water, vinegar, and sour cream. The sour flavor of this soup is linked to the Hungarian influence, due to the fact that Hlebine are located near the Hungarian border. In order to prepare the soup, corn flour and garlic are shortly fried, then combined with paprika, other spices, water, and vinegar. Near the end of cooking, sour cream is incorporated into the soup. Hlebinska juha is typically prepared with noodles consisting of flour, eggs, and salt called kapanci, or with toasted pieces of bread. Before serving, the soup is traditionally garnished with generous amounts of parsley.
