Pierogi - Delicious food in Poland
- You won’t get far in Poland without running into a pierogi, and believe me, you won’t mind. Eating Pierogi’s in Poland is like eating dumplings are in Asia, or empanadas in South or Central America: flat dough discs stuffed with delightful fillings and then boiled.
- At the restaurant Zapiecek, which seems to be as ubiquitous as TGIFriday’s in the US (though much tastier in my humble opinion), we also sampled fried pierogi, which, frankly, I preferred.
- The most common pierogi are filled with beef, though you’ll find both sweet and savory fillings like twaróg cheese, (a type of cottage cheese) lentils, turkey and carrots, mushrooms, and even fruit or jams.
- Served with a side of sour cream for savory pierogies or powdered sugar, butter, or even whipped cream for sweet pierogies.
Zurek - Delicioys food in Poland
- One soup we had over and over again in Poland (not that I minded) was Zurek, or sour bread soup.
