I like to make them a bit bigger, about 3 inches in width. Some people like to make their pogacsa much smaller, sometimes even bit-sized. Just remember that if you make them much smaller, they'll probably bake a lot faster. I also found this recipe for pogacsa which has some nice photos of the baking process that you might also find helpful. http://www.marlenesdesignerportraits.com/blog/and-now-for-something-completely-different-tepertos-pogacsa/ Hope this answers your questions. Good luck making your pogacsa! I believe it makes about 12 scones, although it depends on what size you make them. I like to make them a bit bigger, about 3 inches in width.

Is this simply smoked pork belly? I remember it being much fattier than typical bacon. Thoughts? Thanks!

So this video demonstrates how to make the "flaky" style. I do enjoy both, but feel that the more traditional is the heavy scone as in your provided recipe. Thanks for the video! Aha!

I made this for my girlfriend, who grew up in Transylvania, and she loved it. Especially since many places, even there, make it "flaky" style. I did get yelled at, though, for not putting any black pepper in the dough :) I know it is personal preference, but I will certainly add some next time. Thanks so much for sharing this recipe!
