Love this video. so great to see you with a good friend cooking. Plus I loved the 2 of you talking Polish and we could read what you were saying too. More like this would be great!!!

[@vanessamark7889]

You have an amazing channel! The food looks delicious and I love how you mix both the Polish/English language in your vid. It's great for those for want to learn how to speak Polish!

Thank you so much 🤗

[@karenbizub5172]

I just love listening to you speak Polish to each other. I’ve picked up on some words, I only wish my parent taught me more.I’m trying to learn the language now so I can speak to my grandchildren.

[@daniellekleveta7244]

Great Video! I love listening to you 2 speak Polish, reminds me of the town I grew up in NJ. Have a Merry Christmas and take care.

[@lisacoon7869]

Loved this and enjoyed listening to Polish language, I live in America spoke polish to my parents wish I would have kept up with it!

[@ghiseldamanifesto6509]

I cried as I watched this because it reminded me so much of my grandmother talking Polish as she made makowiec (poppyseed and nut) at Christmas time. We usually had czernina with prunes and dumplings with dinner. I sometimes dream that we are cooking together again. Thank you, especially, for this video lesson.

My mother got a recipe for a Polish cheesecake from our neighbor who was of Polish decent. This was 55 years ago and our area had many Polish families. The one thing that caught my ear was that the filling made from farmers cheese! I thank both of you for a great video.

[@CrystalCane-yh7qc]

Great video, I speak Polish and love to hear both languages on this video. Too bad I didn’t find yay sooner, today is Christmas Eve day so I can’t make the cake, but I will try later on sure sounds delicious. Both of you ladies are great. I’m surprised to see such tattoos on your arms. Great work ladies I added you to my subscribers.

Go to European store..like Italian, Polish or others...they have farmers cheese...or you can order it

[@gregbudig5014]

[@terrypaster1330]

sometimes the larger grocery stores carry it around the holidays. Our Shoprite does carry it around Christmas in small packages. I generally get the three pound size at the local Polish Deli.

[@beatabraginski4314]

Italian Basket cheese is the same as farmers cheese.

[@patriciabell8996]

Try ricotta or make your own fresh cheese with whole milk and buttermilk.

I know lots of polish ... words... & some phrases but that’s it...ty for your channel... I LOVE WATCHING & LISTENING TO YOU SPEAK.....

That cheesecake is looking yummy! It’s very hard to find soft farmers cheese in South East Michigan, can you make it soft somehow using the hard cheese? Thanks

[@beatabraginski4314]

Polish store should have it. Or Russian store.

[@deansikora7280]

You should be able to buy farmer cheese on line. Try Friendship cheese factory in Friendship, NY. They do make farmers cheese. I live near there and you can buy the cheese at some grocery stores. I don't know if you make homemade pierogi, but one of my favorites is farmer cheese pierogi, you just add a bit of pepper.

[@constancedeuriarte1939]

How come some sernik recipes have crusts and some don’t? Is one more traditional?

[@dennydiante2434]

i wonder if you could substitute ricotta for farmers cheese?

[@PolishYourKitchen]

I would use half ricotta and have cream cheese for this recipe. Just make sure that you mix really well. For other recipes ricotta is a good substitute all on it's own. Thanks for watching!

[@stephenwagener349]

Great recipe - Anna must be a sweet tooth - check out 24:22 As Anna places the bowl aside - she says in polish something like " I want to eat the left overs I agree - let's not waste any of that awesome cheesecake

[@wheelch0ck]

That looks so good! I'll have to make this soon! If this question is a silly one, please forgive me and I apologize. Is there a difference between sernik and serowiec? The reason I do not know this is because my grandmother wouldn't really teach my Mom how to speak Polish because, "we live in America now. You learn English," meanwhile everyone else spoke Polish to each other. Which was a shame, because I would've loved to have learned how to speak the language. So now, whenever I search for "serowiec," I always get sernik in the search results and it puzzles me why. When I was young, my Mom used to make a cheesecake from cottage cheese. It was cheaper than cream cheese and she called it "serowiec." Her serowiec had a flour cake bottom and she baked it in two parts. She started by making the cake part and baked it in the oven, then while it was baking, she made the filling. Then she pulled it out of the oven, put the filling on it, and then returned it to the oven. She also used lemon juice and lemon zest in it. Although, sometimes she'd use orange. Thank you for reading this long winded question. It was nice reminiscing a bit too. I enjoy your channel. I have been a subscribber for a little while, and I found your FB page a few months ago. I really enjoy your channel. When I'm watching it, it always takes me back to when I was a child and I'd "help" my Mom in the kitchen. Very fond memories!

[@agnieszkazadrozna4476]

Tak, serowiec to to samo co sernik,moim zdaniem w zależności od regionu Polski używa się innej nazwy. Jak również to jak się robi,z twarogu czy też z serków waniliowych ,czy też tzw.gotowany( czyli podgrzewamy kwaśnego mleko i wytrąca się ser,bądź kwaśną śmietanę z mlekiem słodkim),to wszystko są serniki.

I did go back & check & it did not show the cake being put in oven or taken out of oven !!! And other thing , please leave the MUSIC OFF......it is annoying...... we want to be able to hear what's being said.....sorry...... I just can't understand why people have music on a cooking video !!! I watch cooking videos to listen to what is going on and to learn , not have to strain to hear between music....... not necessary......this will hurt your viewing.... in my opinion.....

[@TheKentuckylady717]

I would like to know why the egg whites were put in the filling !!!?? My Daughter has been making cheese cakes for years & they are delicious but she doesn't use egg whites in hers' to my knowledge .....What does it do for the cheesecake.....? You seem to have a lot of people watching who can speak some polish and seems to understand it, but you also have some Americans who do not and have no idea what all is going on...... so needs to be explained a lot better......why not let the lady do the making of the cake and you ask her questions & you repeat what she says in English..... I think this would be better ..... Don't know if you have a big following of English speaking people or not.....I read a lot of the comments, but not all.....and I did enjoy your Kraut making you did..... Most of the time cheesecakes do not split.....on occasion I believe my Daughter has had a few to do that.....can an expert explain why it cracks? I have heard to not open the door after the cake is done, maybe just crack open the door and leave it shut until cake is DONE !!! I DID NOT SEE WHAT YOU GUIYS DID, EITHER I MISSED IT OR CAMERA DIDN'T SHOW IT, BUT I WILL GO BACK & WATCH THE END OF THIS TO SEE..... THANKS
