It’s beautiful knowing lots of savory spreads and having plenty of recipe ideas at your fingertips!
A slice of fresh bread with a deliciously savory spread and a refreshing drink is sometimes just what you need on a hot day to wind down.
In Austria, you can find, especially at “Heurigen” (Austrian wine taverns), a variety of homemade spreads served as a spread or dip.
If you then sit in the vineyards and let your soul dangle while eating these delicacies, it is a fantastic experience!
Or, on another occasion, if you have company, savory spreads are an excellent choice. Here you can serve the spreads nicely arranged on a charcuterie board or a cold plate.
To always have enough ideas for spicy bread spreads in the future, I have put together a collection of excellent zesty spreads for you! Combine them as you like!
So have fun trying out those delicacies!

I’m a bread fiend and I love topping my bread with different spreads so this collection is really up my alley. My family is coming home this weekend so I’m going to have a selection ready for them. The red pepper humus is what I’m most looking forward to!
Yum what a great selection! I think liptauer is one of my absolute favs
