I’m half Polish and Peruvian.. I love Buckwheat! It has a unique fragrance.. but it doesn’t affect the taste! I like to eat a big bowl of cooked buckwheat with sardines, onions and hot sauce!

Absolutely, canned cranberry sauce and a warm slice of turkey...my mouth is watering! Hurry up Thanksgiving Day... Itinerary: Macy's parade... College football... Dinner....Food coma!

[@FiercedeityBrad]

My mom made all her thanksgivings from scratch, we never had a "from box" thanksgiving ever. We used to have a sauerkraut salad made from sauerkraut, onion, bell pepper, celery, and pimento with sugar added.

[@kathyevans3251]

The ideas are great The buckwheat pierogies sound wonderful.I like the apple cake too.

I made lazanki for my husband for the first time last week. He loved it and his biggest compliment is "You can make this anytime."

[@LochEden]

Bigos! Where's the Bigos recipe!?!? The mere thought of Bigos makes me miss Poland so badly! Brings tears to my eyes!

[@suzanneszlag6551]

My mom use to make drop noodles but dropped them into a pot of warm milk. Ohhhh love it

[@aaaciesiel]

I remember my grandmother making some of these Polish dishes years ago.

[@reneeziayadonovan1282]

My Grandma always made the beans with butter and breadcrumbs for us and she also added some fresh squeezed lemon juice to them!! Delicious!!! I think I'm going to make your apple cake this year to add to our family dinner yum! Thanks for the recipe 😊 Happy Thanksgiving!!!

[@catherineclark236]

YES!! I'm all about polish food for the holidays.

[@710LENNY]

Buckwheat - the last big family xmas dinner we had, my mother and my aunt made buckwheat cabbage rolls. They were the best ever. Pumpkin dumplings - I use sweet potatoes and usually call them gnocchi. This year is weird for me - my husband is waiting to be fitted for dentures, and there is only so much I am willing to overcook and\or puree. Probably ground turkey in gravy over mashed potatoes. But I love just reading your recipes and planning ahead.

[@janetguittard4115]

O...M...G !! I haven't had wax beans since I was a teenager. God how I loved them ! My husband doesn't like them , but guess what, I'm gonna go find some and make it just for me ! Thank you so much for reminding me of one of my childhood favorites ❤

[@wnygrl585]

You guys are the best. Thanks for the video. Im looking forward to trying these. ( too late for Thanksgiving but maybe for Christmas). Mark you count well in Polish 😊. Im about to have a bowl of left over Polish Bean soup from the recipe you shared. Smazcniego 🥰

I am sending this to every friend in the US, love this list 😍

[@annmarisdenis628]

Will totally be trying your apple cake!❤️

[@sophiesweeney7322]

Turkey 🦃 for Thanksgiving dinner is a must although the sides are definitely enjoyed more . The next day we make turkey sandwiches with stuffing and cranberry sauce ( po’ boy) and then we enjoy the turkey more. I also make the hunter’s stew for all the holidays which is enjoyed for leftovers as well . So excited that your cook book is coming to fruition and getting it out there for us ! Happy & healthy Thanksgiving to you and your family 🧡🦃💛

[@jonesbub1]

So touching that you so love your Grandma. I loved the sides’ suggestions, but loved your Grandma’ moment the most! TFS and Happy Thanksgiving!! Sharon🤗

[@julieshelley9251]

Love your channel, I am Polish living in Philadelphia, PA. Growing up my mum made the pierogies from scratch and kluski with fried cabbage and cottage cheese, divine!

[@grekahg3938]

I absolutely love the American and Polish kind of comments here! What we grow up with is what IS, and it’s difficult to love that which is not the norm for holiday meals. You guys made us laugh! 😂🤣❤️ I’ve embraced quite a few dishes from the Szymanski’s heritage but will say I’m like Mark…some are not on my list! 😝 Happy Thanksgiving and happy holidays to you and your families!

[@tomgrose8815]

Thank you! HAPPY THANKSGIVING

[@noelig4152]

"It's tradition. It starts from things coming out of a box". I don't know if I should laugh 😅or cry! We Americans are killing ourselves with our flavorless, processed food! Love you two!

[@gregbudig5014]

... thanks for lumping everyone in the USA together! 🙄 Making everything from scratch is of course a wonderful thing... if you have time to do it! Some people just don't have the luxury of time so need to resort to short cuts to get the meal done, and not everyone makes green bean casserole. I think Mark was being a little sarcastic in his description of a typical American Thanksgiving... but not everyone is only using Stove Top Stuffing and canned cranberries. I don't mean to be offensive... but I don't think the US is as superficial as is portrayed. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving! Take care! Be well!

I'm hoping all the recipes you just touched on will be included in your upcoming cookbook. Can't wait to order my copy!

I made the fried beets, potato babka and the 4 different deviled eggs. Big hit at the table!! Thanks and please keep the videos coming! Can't wait to get the cookbook!! Do Widzenia

[@anjahlandschaft2223]

Already planned on the apple cake for Thanksgiving. The photos of some of the dishes you showed brought back memories of holidays at Baci's. She died 30 years ago. I don't remember what we called them, but recognized them fom the photos! Memories are wonderful things. Congratulations on your book.

[@joanneadams6714]

My mom was polish and made string beans just like this. Except she would add flour in pan first and toast it. Then add butter and bread crumbs! Then toss in fresh cooked green beans. My favorite! Thanks for sharing these polish dishes.

[@maryrobertson4645]

I love love haluski!! Most of these dishes sound AMAZING. PEAS and carrot recipe I will be making!! Green beans too! Salad sounds awesome! I think I will make too.

[@Wynn463]

On Thanksgiving, we do the traditional meal. However, usually a week before or after, we do our own version of Thanksgiving. This year it was early and we did it a few days ago. I smoked the turkey and one of the sides was the wax beans with butter and breadcrumbs. My adult son asked me about the dish (we have it at least a few times a year) and I told him that it was always a favorite that my grandmother made at Christmas and Easter, but I thought she had altered the recipe over the years. I am glad to see that it is extremely close to yours. Watching your channel has shown me that some of the things that we have had over the years are way more traditional than I had thought. My grandfather was among the first in his family born in America, both parents and most of his siblings born in Poland. My Grandmother was I believe second generation born in America. Her mother was Polish, father French/American Indian, however we were raised with the Polish traditions.

[@Babushka2024]

I cannot tell you enough how much I love your channel. My mother is from Opole and I have nothing but wonderful and fond memories of gathering in my grandparents basement eating so many wonderful Polish treats with family, in Milwaukee, WI. My absolute favorite, next to perogi, were kopytkas. I would call them fingers because that is what they looked like when my grandmother would fry them up with butter and onions. I would eat a very healthy sized plate of them every time I would see her. Your channel really helps me carry on those wonderful food traditions with easy to follow recipes and you make it a lot of fun. I absolutely love filling up my home with the smells of the Polish Trio. I even try to learn a little Polish so I can speak it with my mothers cousins as well as in our local Polish deli. Happy Thanksgiving, and please don't stop making videos. Smacznego!

[@iww6994]

Greetings from my town Opole🌷

[@suzanneszlag6551]

Sorry NO buckwheat pierogi here. Im with Mark on this one. Hahaha. Love your videos

[@Tkosinski2]

First of all Mark your doing great with your polish! I could never get past number 10 for some reason. Honestly I want to make everything you guys said for thanksgiving! But I think we’re doing the polish potato salad, fried red cabbage and now that mark said the potato babka is a great breakfast substitute we’ll have to do that as well. Mark your kaszanka breakfast idea was a huge hit at our house!

What a Polish Thanksgiving Treat!! So happy to see you both and what great ideas to Polish your Thanksgiving. The Fried beets with Raspberry looked so good. But it is hard to choose. I have never made the Hunter Stew, but I think during winter sometime. And I will follow your utube video. Will you post some pictures of your Thanksgiving Feast? I know it is Family time but it would be fun to see your table. Congrats on your Cookbook. I can't wait. I think it will be a gift for so many. Thanks for sharing your Time Talent and Treasure. You both are the Best. VIVA Poland

[@barblibrarian]

My mother always made creamed peas and carrots when I was a kid, but I had no idea it was Polish. But, the creamed beets sound wonderful to me. I can’t decide because they all sound good. Thanks for the ideas!

[@windihari]

So, I didn’t realize how many holiday recipes were passed down the family line! You even make your cranberries like my mom. I haven’t had wax beans in years! I was planning on trying your pumpkin dumplings and your apple cake for my Thanksgiving meal, now I will have to add the wax bean casserole. I’m also going to make your fried beet recipe. Just made it tonight along with your wild mushroom gravy and my husband raved and thanked me for discovering your channel! Thank you for teaching me how to finally feed my husband after 2 decades of marriage.....😂

[@abcxyz-io7wt]

They all sound awesome but I may go with the Apple cake, that looks amazing 😁💝

I make the cabbage, onion, bacon and noodle combination, and the gingerbread. I am going to try your recipes for these, because they are the true recipes. I just made mine up after eating at Polish friends houses, here in the states.🙋🥀

[@wolverinehoff9789]

There is no occasion without the potato salad!

[@claytonhufford6922]

Outstanding!

[@gregbudig5014]

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!🦃 Drop dumplings or spaetzle would be a wonderful side dish!! Haluski would be even better!! Was never a big green bean casserole fan... we generally do roasted broccoli or brussels sprouts, but the creamy peas and carrots would be something to try! Did Mark ever introduce you to wild rice from America? 🇺🇸 wild rice dressing is wonderful!! I have been making my own cranberry sauce using real Wisconsin cranberries and orange juice!! Bigos I think would a great stand alone meal, but maybe too much for a Thanksgiving side dish. Take care!! Be well!!

[@cottagerose6012]

Thank you..love you guys.😀

[@2210courtney]

We have a place near us that sells all you eat buckwheat pancakes, but they are only open during spring maple syrup season. I’m going to try the gingerbread loaf, that’s looked so good to me

Oh forgot to mention - I would love to see some regional Polish cuisine featured on your channel, Aniu. There are a lot of very unique dishes from around Poland. Silesian dumplings and zrazy zawijane with some braised red cabbage...hmm heaven on my mind right now....Bonus #3, I suppose. Congrats on your new (upcoming) cookbook. Have a great weekend, Everyone!

[@alisonschoenthaler2544]

I love both Thanksgivings!!! Cranberry out of a can and green bean casserole, or fancy it up, either way -

[@Putain138]

In my huge family regardless of the occasion or holiday there will be Cabbage Rolls somewhere on the table or side board. Your video was full of good suggestions and I like the idea of serving Piernik in addition to the assorted fruit pies, pecan pies and pumpkin pies.

[@kimharding2246]

What to choose? I can’t decide… but it most likely will be the haluski. and yes, I’m dying to try a version of the buckwheat pierogis! I say “version” because my son and I are vegan, but vegan cheeses are now available in so many flavors. So I’ll let you know how it turns out! 🤗

[@paulbegley1464]

My favorite centerpiece is prime rib. Totally Turkeyed out. But ham isn't too bad either. And stuff game hens.

Hi, my Polish grandma always made duck blood soup with duck and prunes and noodles. I think it was called Chawneena. Sorry unfortunately my mother did not teach us Polish when we were growing up. My cousins and I would sit around the kitchen table floor while my grandma, aunts and my Mom all discussed things none of us children could understand. It was very annoying!! 😂

Sides Rule! Turkey 👎🏼 Did…. did you say Potato Babka 😳🤤

Here's an idea, instead of a turkey(which I don't really like) do a nice bone -in pork roast. You can use all the other side dishes and they will propably go better with a nice fatty crispy pork rost Mike.

I was soooo suprised that sałatka jarzynowa come to Poland only after The Second World War ! Interesting history , first made up in Moscow by the French Chef for the Tsars . After the 1917 revolution, luxury ingredients like crabs, lobstes were replaced by the......carrots. Ha ha the same colour . Only known in Poland less then 70 years. Read the history its really interesting.

[@brotheradam]

growing up babka was always hours of peeling and grating potatoes using a square cheese grater that looked like a small metal tennis racquet.. and putting the stuff in the old collander and pushing out the water..ll..

[@brotheradam]

also had another favorite called cabbage potatoes and bacon..lol.. basically Bigos, but simple.. layer bacon, potatoes and cabbage in bot, with salt and pepper, and add some water.. let it cook down.. the bacon keeps the bottom from burning, the lid drops down as the steam gets the cabbage, and I don't think it got stirred even, it just cooked into this delicious mess in a pot.. Found early potatoes like jersey golds made less work..lol..
