Cabbage rolls .

Rolled cabbage is a favorite of Polish, I make mine with ground pork and rice, I add onions and garlic, salt and pepper to make mine.

Not typically. Of course, you can eat anything you like, but I wouldn't eat a donut for breakfast. 🤣 Usually, people eat eggs, sandwiches, oatmeal and sausages for breakfast.

[@shakawhenthewallsfell8570]

Bigos.... My favorite. I make it (about 5 liter batch) every few weeks. I pack it in containers and freeze, then defrost a container or two at a time. I use half fresh cabbage and half sauerkraut, with added smoked sausage, bacon, carrots, wild mushrooms, onions, and various spices. It's a great multi-purpose meal. If you add enough chopped meats into it, it can be a meal itself, or use it as a side, or filler for baked potatoes, or just serve over garlic mashed potatoes... it's perfect.

[@yakeosicki8965]

Add smoked and dried plums and red wine.😉

Hi. The staple Polish 'pierogi' are ruskie, sauerkraut & mushroom, with meat, and with sweet white cheese. Also the ones filled with plums or strawaberries. These 6 types.

Good pick, bigos is awesome (if done right ofc). You probably know żurek, but if you don't, it's another good dish from Poland.

[@Rene_Moor3095]

Warsaw is not rough. You just happened to end up in a district with communist blocks. Warsaw is very large - it has 18 districts and each one is different. But it is a fact that in all countries under Soviet rule, large-frame residential buildings were built. In Poland, from what people who come to Poland from the east say, they are the best maintained and renovated (e.g. they are insulated and painted in different colors - we like colors after the terrible gray period under communism). However, this is a process (it takes time and a lot of money) and the renovation of these buildings is still ongoing. Warsaw is a mix of modern buildings, old pre-WW2 buildings and communist blocks. In the summer it all looks much better when the trees are green and flowers are blooming everywhere.

[@bigal6755]

He said rougher than Katowice and Wrozlaw. Warsaw is definitely the roughest out of those.

[@carlll6101]

At this time of the year in looks kinda rough let's be honest.

Because your mother couldn't buy curd - twaróg. You have to go to Canada for that. This is a different type of cheese. It can be fat, semi-fat or lean. We use it for dumplings, pancakes, breakfast spreads and baked goods. The easiest way is to put it on bread with butter, slices of cucumber, tomato and fresh herbs. 😉

Pierogi is a plural form of pieróg. Why would you add an "es" at the end?

[@jeffhampton2767]

@@yakeosicki8965 My grandmother came straight from Poland and she was making curd twarog from scratch. My grandparents owned a large farm and a restaurant in Southern New Jersey. You do not know what my mother did and you should not assume anything. She was born in 1924 and she was a great cook she cooked up a storm. My grandparents fed dozens of people during the Depression on their Farm. Canada has around a million people with Polish ancestry and the United States has almost 9 million people with Polish ancestry. To this day we have polish delicatessens. Americans do not have to go to Canada for anything but Canada gets 70% of its food from the United States and Mexico since Canada is covered in ice 7 months out of the year. Most of Canada is just like Siberia. Curd twarog is easy to make there are recipes for it all over the internet. We have a large polish population here in Eastern Pennsylvania not far from the Amish Pennsylvania Dutch Country. There is also a large polish population in New Jersey and New York and the Chicago area.

Hey Deana. Two things about pierogi you`ve got to try. First - of course - "uszka" - mainstream Christmas Eve dish, traditionally filled with dried forest mushroom, and put into Polish borscht (barszcz). Of course the best in welcoming Polish home, but some good restaurant maybe does it good enough. Second - more obscure: regular pierogi with dried plums, cinnamon and powdered sugar. Not many people makes those, our family always makes it on Christmas Eve too, but it is not regular Christmas food. But it is winter dish (as dried fruit traditionally were used to get some vitamins during long winters).

[@kartof1]

You two are a cute couple and I really enjoy the videos. You're getting very good at videos where they are now moving at very good pace, more streamlined, interesting with funny little comments that appear, more sophisticated in a way probably having to do with very accurate descriptions of places and food and getting better at video editing.

There’s this really special way of eating gołąbki that every child in Poland knows. When the dish is served, you have to very carefully unroll it, so no cabbage is left and then put this cabbage on your mum's plate. I'm over 30 and I'm still doing it!

Oczywiście mogłem powiedzieć, że mi nie smakuje lub coś podobnego i wtedy nie było problemu zamknąć temat.

[@izagoaszczyk5552]

The best and basic, and oldschool's way of filling pączek is with rose (yes, a flower) jam. And the donut you ate had been too long in oil and it coused the damage of the structure of the donut: it wasn't fluffy enought and dry 😕. Kotlet schabowy in Polish cousine comes always with mashed potatoes. Combining kotlet with potatoes' cold salad is a typical Austrian's dish. Yes, you made exellent choices in Katowice and in Warszawa concerning typical Polish dishes. And the best (for me) cake in Upper Silesia is makowiec - cake with crashed poppy seed. Yes, you tried drożdżówka z makiem (the cake after the donut), but makowiec and drożdżówka z makiem are two totally -(!) different cakes. Belive me 😊. BTW the whole Silesia region (Katowice is the capital city of Upper Silesia region) was a part of German for more than 120 years. So Silesian cousine has a lot of similarities with German and Austrian's cousine. Greetings from Katowice 🙂.

[@litti2011]

Meine Favoriten sind pierogi ruskie und die fleischige Sorte (z mięsem)😋. Bei den Kohlrouladen hängt es viel vom Geschmack ab, denn es gibt viele Varianten davon, die verschieden schmecken, aber genauso ist es mit Bigos, die einen machen Bigos mit Fleisch und Wurst, die anderen nur mit Fleisch oder nur mit Wurst und mit Pflaumen drin, daher in jeder Region werden die Sachen anders schmecken. Bei dem Käsekuchen ist es der benutzte Käse (Twaróg), der früher in so einem Block verkauft wurde, fen musste man durch den Fleischwolf jagen 😅 damit er diese cremige Konsistenz bekommt, heute kann man den auch so pürieren aber der Geschmack ist einmalig. Ich habe i Deutschland alle Sorten ausprobiert; Quark, auch den kernigen Frischkäse püriert, Mascarpone (auch wenn es italienisch ist) aber den Geschmack vom twaróg kann man mit den anderen nicht herzaubern. Wenn euch diese süßen Pierogi mit twaróg geschmeckt haben probiert pierogi leniwe (faule Pierogen😂); die werden aus gestampften Kartoffeln, twaróg und Mehl gemacht; serviert werden sie mit geschmolzener Butter, Zimt und Zucker darüber gestreut❤❤❤.

[@scottscottsdale7868]

I have an idea for you. You should try a series where you compare home cooked meals versus restaurant meals. It would be harder to organize but if you did it would be incredibly good videos. 😊

In Warsaw and many bigger cities there ara bars called ("pierogarnia").This is a chain of course. They offer any kind of dumplings you can imagine.

[@Cottonpuff273]

As for me, the three most interesting flavors of dumplings I have tried are: d umplings with apple and cinnamon topped with sour cream, dumplings with groats and cracklings and (my favorite) dumplings with mozzarella and spinach with garlic dip

[@2litryMARZEN]

The fruit dumplings are good only in season; at least that is what I think and have tested. If you are ever in Poland around June or August, try strawberry or European blueberry (common names: bilberry, blaeberry, wimberry, and whortleberry). Those are my favorite ones.

[@marteq]

Yeah, the cheap diners are very common in Poland. We have a lot of high end restaurants as well, though.

[@Remik7000]

try some classic Polish street food called zapiekanka. Also try taking sour cucamber to some of your main dish. Poland is known for its soup dishes. Rosół, pomidorowa, barszcz biały/żurek, ogórkowa and many more

Pasckes are very popular in Detroit for Ash Wednesday, several bakeries in Hamtramck are open almost 24 hrs then to sell them. Even people that dont normally eat donuts eat pasckes on Ash Wednesday, it's a Detroit tradition!

We love our perogies fried after they are boiled, so at least one side has a bit of crisp brown on it, then served with lots of sautéed Onions & sour cream; sometimes crumbled bacon and green onion. Never tried dessert perogies.

[@Harphoney]

My background is polish, so I ate a lot pierogi and cabbage rolls lol. My favourite pierogi has to be cherry and served with a sprinkle of sugar and drizzled with warm sweet cream. Mmm❤

[@rafalsmet]

Well New York style cheese cakes and Basque one are very popular now in Poland. Especially in this year I think.

My Family was Pomern and Ost Prussian, and the foods are very close

You don't know how many dishes in Polish and German cuisine have the same roots. Your schnitzel is a schabowy - Polish pork chop. In your case it is served with potato salad, in our case it is served with potatoes and fried cabbage. It came from Vienna as a poor version of Wiener schnitzel made of veal. This is not a dish from Vienna, however. Because it's a poor version of the Milanese cutlet, made from veal tenderloin(The dish has been served since the 13th century.). The dish was brought by Marshal Radetzy to Vienna.😜 Alsatian Choucrote in Germany became cabbage with sausage, and in Poland it became bigos 🤣🤣🤣😂 etc.

you have to taste the pickled cucumbers in saltwater with majoram, dill and garlic. I always buy them in a polish supermarket in germany. they are way better than the normal ones.

When it comes to pierogi, you can actually have it filled with anything that comes into your mind. Still ruskie (i like when the filling is soury - you need to use good cheese for it - and peppery), cabbage-and-mushrooms and meat are the most popular. The roasted barley groats filling is also very good. But it seems to me that there is another dish, highly underestimated. These are krokiety - croquettes: a pancake rolled around the filling, then breaded and deep fried. The meat and cabbage or cabbage and mushrooms filling is typically used. Super delicious, especially with barszcz.

[@dalemiller6939]

Cabbage rolls are the best!
