"Tłusty czwartek" rozpoczyna ostatni tydzień karnawału, czyli zimowego okresu zabaw i balów. Ostatnim dniem karnawału jest "Podkoziołek" albo "Ostatki" i jest to wtorek; o północy (24.00) koniec zabaw. Następnego dnia jest "Środa Popielcowa", a więc początek Wielkiego Postu czyli 40-dniowego okresu przygotowania duchowego do największego święta katolików tj. Zmartwychwstania Pańskiego (Wielkanoc). Pączki są nieodłączną tradycją kulinarną "Tłustego Czwartku" - klasycznie nadziewane konfiturą z róży (płatki róży ucierane z cukrem) albo powidłami śliwkowymi. Smacznego!
In case you didn't know, the Blikle company still operates in Poland, even in Poznań :) and until recently it was a family company. It was headed by Andrzej Blikle, who is a fairly well-known mathematics professor with international achievements. A few years ago, the company was handed over to professional managers. In Warsaw and the surrounding area it is legendary, their cafes/patisseries are considered elegant and serve products of a high standard. The restaurant on the prestigious Nowy Świat Street even had legendary guests, such as the renowned writer Tadeusz Konwicki or the famous actor Gustaw Holoubek, who came there almost every day at the same time and had their own table :)
That's very interesting. I haven't been to one of their locations I guess I need to add it to my "to do" list 😁 thanks for w watching and taking the time to write such an interesting comment.
I did forget to talk about faworki i apologize. It is a delicacy in its own way too!! Thanks for taking the time to watch I hope you enjoyed the video!!
Hello. It's very interesting that you lived in Poland as an immigrant. Usually the direction was always the other way around. You have decided to build a house and purchase property as a foreigner. This is a very brave step. I will tell you that I remember the 80s and 90s from my childhood and I never thought I would live to see the times when native Americans would come to Poland to settle. Do you have any Polish roots? What town do you live in?😀 Pozdrawiam
Things have become extremely difficult in the USA for the average person the middle class has become smaller and smaller every year. My wife is Polish and we live in Wagowo a very small village south east of Poznań. I'm very proud to live in Poland and extremely happy with the choice I made to move here while it does have its challenges (especially learning Polish at my age) the country is beautiful and the people are great. I couldn't be happier anywhere else.
@@anamericaninpolandBTW Sorry, I'm writing using a translator to avoid making incomprehensible mistakes. For me, this convenience, on the one hand, facilitates contact, but on the other hand, it makes me lazy when learning English. I understood your interviews in English with Poles in one of the episodes, but not everything. For me, English is the hardest to learn than to hear. For many Poles, American English sounds like there are noodles in your throat, it is a bit gibberish compared to British English. For you, Polish is grating and rustling. Poles find it easier to learn languages with hard sounds because in English, individual words in a sentence often combine to form one sound. especially with prepositions (e.g. do it sounds phonetically like "dułit", R is very soft). For me, the apparent ease of the English language is a difficulty because it is a language in which you have to guess what a given word can mean, because the same word can have many meanings (e.g. to have, to have to, that, etc.) For you, Polish is quite a challenge. challenge. I'm a little younger than you, so I understand you. It's good that you have a Polish wife because she is amazing support. Many Americans live in Poland with Polish wives. Interestingly, there are very few relationships between American women and Poles.
@jarekjaroslaw3307 don't feel bad I use a translator quite a lot myself. It's all part of learning. I'm very hopeful that Polish will become more natural for me in the future as it will help me to make more friends. Thank you so much for watching and taking the time to comment it really means a lot.
@@anamericaninpolandIt's funny because Americans and Western Europeans praise Poland, often completely unaware that the economic situation, security and wages have changed for the better only in the last 15 years. Until around 2012-13, millions of Poles fled to Great Britain and Ireland; obtaining a visa and going to the USA or Canada with legal work was an unrealistic dream for many. I regret that you were not in Poland in the 90s or in the 80s. Back then there was a lot of poverty, crime, and no prospects for life. However, the conservative values that you value were at a much higher level. People helped each other more because there was no Internet and cell phones. They visited each other. The food in stores was in an incredibly smaller range, but very natural. For example, the packages were only rose or marmalade. Sprinkled with sugar, powder or icing. and that's all. The ice cream scoops had at most 4 flavors. If you had settled in Wagawo then, you would have bought the property almost "for free", you would have had many "unofficial" facilities because corruption was significant, but above all you would have become a local sensation because people would have seen you as some incredible sensation that a native-born American had settled in a Polish village. Although your region, i.e. Greater Poland, has always been one of the most economically dynamic. I wonder if the average American, even of older age, can imagine butcher shops, rationed sugar, butter, gasoline, not to mention higher-level goods? I remember that there were special stores where you could buy Donald's gum or pineapple with dollars or marks. Can you imagine it? It was only 35 years ago when Poles dreamed of going to Germany, let alone the USA! Now many of your compatriots live even in theoretically dictatorial countries in search of freedom from political correctness, pure nature, traditional values, freedom from stimulants and embarrassing absurd laws. For example, in Russia, Iran, former Soviet republics or other "third world countries". My Polish wife probably remembers those times and told you a lot.🙂
@@jarekjaroslaw3307 it's been a long time since there was rationing in the USA the last time was fuel in the late 1970s and before that major rationing during WW2. my parents and grandparents remembered it was before I was born. I would have loved to see how much Poland has evolved in the last 30+ years in person, it is something every Pole should be proud of 100%
Byłem dzisiaj jak co jakiś czas u Klienta i prawie na wejściu zaproponowali mi pączek. Skorzystałem. Był chyba jeszcze ciepły i ze smacznym nadzieniem, dobre...
that filings you talk about is not common in Poland. The traditional filings are rosehip, cherry jam or choclate but not banana and other stuffs you talk about. That's modern version of pączki
@@anamericaninpoland Myślę, ze te moderne pączki są dzisiaj bardzo „zamerykanizowane” nie mające nic wspólnego z tradycja, bo tradycje wszędzie zamierają w Europie niestety. Takie typowe ciężkie nadzienia jak karmel, grube glazury i bardzo przesłodzone produkty są typowe dla USA. Będąc w Polsce zauważyłam ogromny wpływ zachodu i Polacy niestety maja tendencje naśladować wszystko co zachodnie, bo myślą ze to jest lepsze. Tradycyjne polskie wypieki nie są tak słodkie i bardziej niskokaloryczne. Dieta Polaków się mocno zmieniła w ostatnich latach, bo przejmuje się niestety zachodnie wzorce odżywiania. Problem otyłości wśród dzieci a także młodego pokolenia jest już bardzo duży także w Polsce i to trend typowo zachodni.
Ja osobiście lubię pączki tylko z cukrem pudrem i dżemem jakie jakie jadłam jeszcze w PRL-u w dzieciństwie. Smak dzieciństwa jest najlepszy. Wtedy był tylko jeden rodzaj pączków w Polsce. Tak naprawdę to nie lubię tych dzisiejszych nowoczesnych pączków. A pączków nadziewanych krówka to na pewno nie są moje smaki.
Ja najlepiej lubię pączki własnej roboty. Dlatego sama je co roku przyrządzam. A potem zapraszam moich sąsiadów Amerykanów na degustacje pączków polskich. Jako ciekawostka pączki pochodzą ze Starożytnego Rzymu ale wtedy nie były robione na słodko. Słodkie pączki powstały prawdopodobnie pod wpływem kultury arabskiej, bo w tamtych kulturach jedzono bardzo słodko. W średniowieczu pieczono pączki w Europie zachodniej, skąd przywędrowały do Polski.
Why the videos stopped you started to have some followers I would say every now and then throw a vlog from a city you visited a forest? a new interaction or something good found in Poland there is tons of stuff to do :) I also would benefit from current paperwork for Americans and looking to visit in 2025/
I apologize. I have had the intention to post more, I've even recorded and deleted many. I promise that there will be more coming soon. Thanks for following and taking the time to reach out.

No właśnie, pominął Pan jedną ważną tradycję tego dnia: pytamy, ile ktoś zjadł pączków :)
To prawda 😂😂😂

Z różą i wiśnią

I’m Polish and you are absolutely right. That’s a modern version of pączki. I definitely prefer the traditional pączki.
Yes those are the traditional fillings but the modern fillings are very common and can be found almost everywhere
