Prasek´s Smokehouse, Hillje, TX
What the Texans refer to as ¨kolaches¨ are one of my favorite treats when I happen to find myself down around those parts. There were a lot of Czech/Polish immigrants in Texas back in the day, and they brought their foods with them, like the koláč, traditionally a sweet pastry. History may never know who first thought to put savory fillings in a kolache, but he or she blessed future generations with this awesome treat. I was thrilled to find a Czech bakery back in Iowa but they only made traditional sweet kolaches and not their modern, salty Texan descendants.
