Powiedz mi, co jesz, a powiem ci, kim jesteś – o kulinariach w Słowenii

Culinary arts are an important part of every nation’s culture. The goal of our text is to converge the linguistic-cultural view of Slovene culinary arts from a hetero-stereotypical point of view of Polish people. For our analysis, we used operational categories of an ethnolinguistic school from Lublin and its continuators from all over Poland. The article is based on academic surveys. We differentiated and wrote about two thematic circles, which reconstruct Slovene culinary arts: 1) the general characteristics of Slovene cuisine, 2) specific dishes, ingredients, drinks etc. The linguistic worldview captured in the discourse on culinary identity are one of the main factors influencing the cultural identity of a given community. The vocabulary, especially culturally conditioned, regarding the culinary arts should find its place in the glottodidactic process.
