Smothered Pierogies! YUM!

[@ritamccartt-kordon283]

I learned to make Pierogies from my Ex-husband's Grandmother! She was Ukrainian and spoke very little English. She was patient with me. She taught me many ways to make the Pierogies, using things she had. Leftover mashed potatoes, cherries, blueberries and cheese! She always boiled them. They were served with Fried Onions done in leftover bacon grease. Fried just until Golden brown. Grease and onions went over the boiled Pierogies! It was delicious! The onions I still call "Baba" Fried Onions"! She taught me many Ukrainian dishes. Including the Blessed Bread for Easter. Their Priest came to the house, and Blessed this bread for them! I was fortunate to have known her and her husband! He used to sing me songs in Ukrainian! I loved these people very much. GOD bless

Lovely memories! Thank you for sharing them!

[@ritamccartt-kordon283]

@@lifewiththevolfies My memories are most always of wonderful times in the kitchen! Your style of cooking is so much like my mentors! Whether that is my Mother, relatives or friends! A great home Cook, is worth millions! Cooking is a labor of love. You love it, or you don't do it. I can't remember now what you were making, but you reached down and swiped your hand on your side. My Mother and Grandmother did that too! So do I. I could have cried! Bless you! GOD bless you

Ooo yum. Blessings to all ❤

[@jennjeffs4893]

Set your sour cream out for an hour before adding to a hot dish and it should help with separation. Sometimes I even set the container in a dish of warm water and stir a few times to raise the temp of the sour cream and it never curdles 😀

[@lifewiththevolfies]

Thank you!

[@cbass2755]

Hi Bev! Love your hair! Lol…I just made Pirogues yesterday…yum! I make them ver simple, onions, lots of butter and fry them up in m pan. Hum…bacon…I didn’t think of that one. But slather in sour cream always…

[@deegilchrist9862]

the best way to stop the sour cream from curdling is to add some of the hot liquid to the sour cream then mix it in with the rest of sauce. adding the hot liquid to the sour cream first will bring it up to temp

[@lifewiththevolfies]

Brilliant thank you!

[@maryann6522]

Awesome- the only way to have them❤️

[@independentprepper1]

Looks delicious thanks for the video

[@jeanphillips1030]

I never had them that way. I use it as a side dish. Or maybe cook it with polish sausage.

[@dianatennant4346]

I have heard and I have not tried it but if you stir in just a little flour to the sour cream before you at it it will help with that separating. Hope you give it a try according to what I saw in the 8 oz it only takes a teaspoon of so. It acts a little bit as a thickening agent which basically I think covers up the curdling and thickens just slightly good luck this looked really good to me. I have never made pierogies fresh or frozen but they've always looked good to me it is on my list of to do things

[@MammaCass]

I wanted to try these! Thank you for inspiring me to give it a go! Much love

[@mindypatriotangel6064]

That looked absolutely delicious!

[@lifewiththevolfies]

It so WAS!

[@joannbyrd8435]

Love pierogies...the way you served them had me nearly drooling, lol! I'll definitely be making this!

[@madebyaprilanne]

You can’t go wrong with pierogi…I’m fortunate to live near a polish market ❤️ what you made looks delicious!

[@sherryleach2995]

Love perogies, that is an interesting recipe. I usually just do bacon and onions with a dollop of sour cream. Thank you Bev for another way of jujing up a meal. Much love from Thunder Bay Ontario

[@lifewiththevolfies]

It is a SLIGHTLY healthier way...lol

[@Myfavorites877]

Your mom is just beautiful. Great recipe too.

[@lisamartin3346]

Mmmmm. Haven’t had pierogies in a couple of years. Gonna have to try them again. Will use your recipe, of course!

[@lifewiththevolfies]

It was DELICIOUS!

[@suzibee2156]

🤣🤣🤣💜💜💜my boxer/mastiff mix always did things like that too! Great video! Pierogies are my favorite

[@ritamastin647]

You have a beautiful family. Hope she enjoyed her dinner. Peace.

[@catholicfaithofmine2664]

Lol...you should see my cat. I think he likes to meow at doors. I'll open the door and he runs away in opposite direction. Then he meows at another door!

[@MoonFireGypsy]

Pierogies are my favorite food. I never thought to do anything with them other than to sauté with onions but I’ll definitely be trying something like this followed by a long walk afterwards lol. Thanks for the inspiration.

[@susanedwards9473]

Well, Nan gave us a quick, hearty thumbs up! So we will take that!!! Never ate a pierogi but I know I would love them made like this into a full meal!❤️

[@Anita3kidsS.]

Hi Bev, EXACTLY how my MIL taught me & her MIL before her. To boil & then fry. OF COURSE ONIONS YUM LOL .Have to try it this way . I never had pierogies until 30 years ago. We just bought some on sale. Hugs, Anita S .💜🌻🌷

[@debbyatwell7851]

they look good

[@dianehoffman6640]

That looks fantastic I’m gonna make it

[@lusnorthernhome3410]

We use onion and butter yum

[@laurenpiantino8312]

Bev, that meal looked delicious. Did Howie get his serving eventually? lol. I just love the way you cook without ever weighing anything; nothing fazes you in the kitchen, and everything you turn out is perfect. Just love you all. :)

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

Yes Apparently it is just as good cold! LOL

[@gingergargoyle]

I've never had frozen pierogi before - poor dad had to wait for MA to be in the mood to make them ... seems odd not seeing kraut (rinsed then fried in butter) on the plate

[@janicekazun7525]

I have a dog like that. She guzzles water like a sailor on leave guzzles beer. LOL.

[@edgrossman8929]

I like your style of cooking

[@Jaclynncolorado]

what flavour perogies did you use? They looked wonderful

[@lifewiththevolfies]

Three cheese

[@harshlands]

I've been really disgusted by the package shenanigans that manufacturers have beein on for the last couple years now. Bags of veg that were 1kg are now 750g, bottles of cooking oil that were 1L are now 940ml (very annoying if using a fryer appliance that asks for 1L), chip bags that were 180-200g are down go 160d especially Lays (which I no longer buy due to that), packs of sliced meat that were 500d are 375g, total absolute bullshit and hidden major price increase on top of the actual inflation in sticker price. The stores lately, just nuts, now do they expect anyone on less than $20 an hour to live exactly. Might as well turn to a life of crime soon.

[@northernkarma9296]

That looked YUMMY!!!

[@JellyKris1]

Look delicious! What are spinach balls?

[@lifewiththevolfies]

Just balls of frozen spinach I got them at the factory outlet

[@sandrastar8141]

Looks good

[@crissytalty5160]

Hi Bev! This looks absolutely wonderful!!! I have always just fried pierogies from frozen, I'm going to try your way and boil them first. I love them but when I fry them they are so tough.... and like you said I don't have the greatest teeth are they more tender that way?

[@lifewiththevolfies]

Absolutely more tender!

[@Nakuru98]

The only TRUE POUND of bacon is from Costco...and it's awesome bacon, not like that water injected stuff they sell at the grocery stores these days!

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

I will be picking some up and portioning it and vac sealing it in meal sizes...sick of the garbage the sell as food!

[@thewoodenspoon9679]

Another beautiful meal Bev!! You are so creative!! Looks so scrumptious!! So good to see Nan!

[@mytinyretirement]

Hey, nothing wrong with a semi-homemade meal. It's okay to curdle, it still looks delicious. Mitch is sitting here 🤤 🤤 🤤. And quick!!! Yup, looks amazing. Hi Nan. 👋

[@lifewiththevolfies]

It is bloody delicious!

[@KCSmith1]

MUST TRY!

[@shelleylamb7087]

I have never herd of pierogies.

[@lifewiththevolfies]

They are a type of noodle dough filled with mashed potatoes and cheese

Dear Bev, Dinner looked good! Yum!! But you have to face it. You are a Race Car Widow! Been there, Done That! 🥰💝💓💞💗💕💖❣️🥰

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

Um....Ya..Pretty sure I figured that out when he took me to the track for the first time...and every car he showed me...every racer he introduced me to? I kept saying, " No Howard, Not happening Dear, Where is the money going to come from dear?" To What is this years schedule??? I am TOTALLY aware! BWAHAHAHAHA

[@askedgeorgia17]

Hi Bev, My husband was a NHRA top fuel. They finally gave it up in 1987 because the cost of fuel and technology was getting so advanced they couldn’t compete. I feel they should have to tune a car by ear. This using computers to do it doesn’t make a competition out of it. It’s not fair. 🥰

[@Jomama02]

It looked delish until you put the sour cream and milk on them! I hate sour cream but realize most people love it! Howie's loss of a hot delish meal!

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

lol

[@austinclark7301]

Hi Bev I have a question can you dehydrate cow bones in the dehydrated Joann St Louis Mo

Darn nice meal 👍👍

[@chrissyj.9480]

Geeze, such large portions,

[@irishpm01]

Frozen spinach balls? When did that happen and what video do I need to watch? 😁

[@cheril7221]

they were part of her grocery haul when she got the pierogies a few videos ago.

[@Artiefrog]

I think milk and sour cream will separate because milk was to hot.

[@feliciavirella52]

Hey Miss Bev can I ask a question hows come your milk is in the bag just curious

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

It is just how most of our country packages it. Less plastic than jugs I guess?

[@feliciavirella52]

Oh okay yeah ours comes in the gallon in The jug and the half gallon you can get it in The jug and sometimes in the paper carton but nothing like plastic bags

[@deborahsthisthat5034]

First!!

[@barbaram3153]

Usa perogies are nowhere that nice looking as those are. And they do not taste good...but that looks great
