    My wife is from Poland and her mother is staying with us, so our kitchen has been a pierogi factory the last few days. I think she's mostly been doing the more "holiday" mushroom/sauerkraut-filled ones, but I think she also did some of the potato/cheese/onion ones as well.

    This brings back such beautiful memories of my dear Polish mother, who was a ‘Pro’ at making these type of pierogis. Thank you for sharing Chef John 🙏❤️🙏

    I grew up eating pierogi. My Mom is from Pittsburgh and grew up eating food from multiple different nationalities due to all the Grandmothers living with families back in the 50s/60s after their husbands passed relatively young from working in the steel mills. I grew up in Indiana, so many of my friends came over to my house to try different types of food that most Hoosiers back then didn’t eat.

    These are called pierogi ruskie in Poland (name coming from from Ruś or Rus' - an old land in roughly Ukraine/Russia lands), nowadays mostly called "ukraińskie" (because of the geological situation) which somehow suits their origin better. They can be quite good, not the biggest fan of this variety, as we have better ones IMO, ones with meat, or with wild mushrooms, or champignons and sauerkraut, or other variations (try lentils, or for something more exotic, yet great, buckwheat and roasted onions). We also have wonderful sweet versions with strawberries or blueberries inside, eaten with a cream. Variety is as usual the spice here, and one may often find very good tastes inside : )

    I know it's a bit of cross pollination of cultures, but when making pierogi I like to make the "lace skirt" made from flour or cornstarch, water, and salt that often comes with gyoza. Just adds a bit more crunch/texture. 🥟🥟🥟

      What about quark, would you be able to get that where you live? If not, you can use Philadelphia or any cream cheese, and your pierogi will be just as delicious. This is what I use whenever I don't have the time to go to a Polish shop.
