great glad to see your doing pierogi. Thanks
Thank you!
Aunt Ann would be proud! taste just like hers did! YUM!
That is the ultimate compliment! 😍
Great video. Thank you so much for sharing!!!
Thanks for watching!
Yeeeees!!!! Hooray! Polish Heaven indeed! My mom used to use the farmer's cheese for the filling with the potatoes. Outstanding job they look so delicious! You made my day Helga! And you posted this on winter solstice day! Nothing like pierogies on the shortest darkest day of the year! Pure joy and Heaven! Thank you for the shout out! Happy holidays!
Thanks for being so patient! It's not hard to make them, just time consuming and time id the the one thing I often have very short supply of. But I'm glad I finally got the vid for you. Glad I could brighten hour day!
@@PennsylvaniacookingBlogspot ty Helga! Merry Christmas!
You can make farmers cheese easily. Videos on youtube🤗
Ooooh! I'm all about the Pierogi! Can't wait to watch! Merry Christmas Helga!❤️
Thank you! You too!
Thank you for this video! Merry Christmas!
You're welcome and Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas Helga! Thank you SO much for all the wonderful delicious recipes. I love perogies and I was so excited to see you make these...yum! ☃️👍☃️
You are so welcome!
Give me a spoon and some of the potatoes to tide me over until the pierogi are ready. No bacon? No sour cream? No pickled beet and horseradish relish? Been a while since i tried making them. Someone in the house likes frozen food better than homemade. Thank you for the recipe, Helga. Stay safe and stay warm
LOL, lots of bacon and sour cream goes into the pierogi casserole. I love my pierogi with a dollop of sour cream or applesauce. We do red beets, red beet eggs, red beet horseradish and horseradish with our ham, pot pie and other goodies, LOL. Thanks for watching, Sean!
Ms. Helga, you are such a delight to watch cook. Its like being in the kitchen with a good friend having a nice chat and delicious food. Thanks for inviting us into your kitchen!
You are most welcome, and I'm so glad I could convey that to you!
I'm so glad you shared this!!
Thank you!
Polish Heaven indeed :). Oh My! Pierogi ARE the world's best comfort food,thank you so much,Happy holidays!
You are most welcome!
So glad I found your channel from the Crocktober playlist! Landed on the golumbky vid and now this pierogy vid. I grew up in Western PA in a coal mining area and both parents were Polish. These were my mom's best recipes. With winter coming up, will need to spend a couple of days making both recipes (my husband grinned ear to ear hearing this). Thanks for bringing back great memories!
Love this. Have made them for years but someone asked for a recipe and yours finally was like mine. Thanks.
You are so welcome!
Helga....you make my heart sing watching you eat your doughy filled creations! Thanks for sharing...much luck to you with your channel!
Thank you so much!
Yum! Homemade pierogies are the best. My Polish gramma used to put a little oil on her hands and slather those little dough pockets a bit before freezing. She said it stopped them from sticking together.
She's right. I'd almost forgotten that trick! Thank you!
These look awesome! They remind me of my slovak grandmother's perogies!! Thank You for sharing, we will make them soon.
Thank you, hope you like them!
It looks absolutely delicious. Merry Christmas! Thank you for really good videos.
Thank you very much! merry Christmas!
You make the potato and sauerkraut just like my mother used to make they are the best
Some of my favorites!
I have to share this with my mom, we ate a crap ton of pierogi when we were younger
Hope you enjoy it and hope you are well!
My hubby is Ukrainian and we both love these. It is a lot of work to have a Ukrainian meal but worth it. He boils them. Until they float and then frys them.He frys onions and polish sausage. We top it with sour cream.we can eat this for any meal.
That is exactly how I love them, too! I do a whole bunch and then freeze them for later!
Awesome 👍
Thank you🌝🎈
Thank you! Cheers!
Nice recipe. I'm gonna try doing the dough with the sour cream. I've also never done sauerkraut with onions and mushrooms. I'm gonna give that a try. Thanks for sharing.
It's so good!
Ok so I watched you eat these! Oh wow! Cannot wait !!!!
You're gonna love them!
Your so awesome at everything you do. Some people would just see a recipe but something like that is a memory. I still smell my grandmas cornbread sometimes..shut my eyes breath deep and go back. Also thank you guys i was so confused at the mail box lmao. It was a pleasant surprise im home alone till the second and that really just made my day. Please give the mechanic my love.
I feel the same way, food memories transport me to special places and times just like certain music does. I'm glad you got your card, and bummer on being home Alone on Christmas! Hugs, Big Guy!
We always used a fork to seal the edges. And ours were twice the size your making. We fry yhem in butter and eat. Brings back alot of memories
Everyone has their favorite way! I don't make them bigger just because that's nice sized for us. But any size is yummy!
I'm glad he begged you...now I am begging for mercy! OHHH girl this is very groovy
Thank you! Maybe you'll get to try them one day!
Yummy 😋
Thank you!
Just joined and I can't wait to get cooking !!!😜🇨🇦
Thank you!
YUM!!!!!
Thank you!
Delicious
Thank you 😋
I love your intro. I am excited to learn how to make these homemade. I went in for a bite but its on video. Nom nom
Thanks so much! A Merry Christmas to you, Seth and Brandon! Don't be a stranger!
looks so good....my mother always made homemade pierogis..nothing like homemade...the best...
Absolutely right!
Oh boy oh boy howdy does that ever look amazingly mouthwatering delicious and extremely yummy. Merry Christmas Helga from South East Kansas
Thank you very much, and Merry Christmas, Gerret!
I will definitely be making these very soon this will probably go good with some meatloaf and gravy green beans
Hope you like them!
Hello. We just saw your channel on UA-cam and subscribed right away. Sure wish it would have popped up a lot sooner. Real wholesome cooking and you’re very easy to follow along as you go. We will enjoy many of your recipes. Happy 2021.
Thank you so much!
That sauerkraut filling looks awesome! I wish I could taste those. I'm not familiar with pierogis because I didn't grow up around them.
Ok this is on a list of stuff that you have to make for me and Rhonda. OMG
Easy enough, just let me know when to start cooking!
Awesome Helga! Guess what My Beautiful Wife will be making over the Christmas break... I think she likes me😁 Merry Christmas to You and Your Family Helga!
Thank you! You too! I hope you enjoy them as much as we do!
I have to tell you that I had many a great meal at Cox's restaurant in Elysburg as a youngster
If you ever had the fresh Lima beans there they very well may have came from my mom & dads farm. They sold them to Cox's, shelled by the quart when they were in season.
@ernbone I remember those days. I lived on the other side of the river then so we only ate their a couple times.
@@TheDisgruntledMechanic I'm not a lima fan but my brother always had lima beans
I made the potato version of these, and they were fantastic!!!
So glad you enjoyed them!
Beutiful job.
Thank you!
Merry Christmas Helga!! I made four dozen potato and farmers cheese and four dozen sauerkraut and mushroom a couple of weeks ago and they’re in the freezer waiting for Christmas Eve! Can’t wait to do again. Yours look phenomenal! 🥟
That is awesome! I simply didn't have that kinda time but should take a day to do it, maybe after the new year. The last quarter of the year is always really bad at work with OT, so it's a challenge to get out all the holiday stuff I want to.
@@PennsylvaniacookingBlogspot I understand that! It was a three day process for me to do it, which is why I make them right after thanksgiving and freeze them! Merry Christmas!!
I just found you and am so so happy . Now I can surprise my husband from Pa with food he grew up on . I grew up and army brat I do cook German food but its so different then Pa Dutch/amish cooking .
I have quite a few things PA Dutch and Coal Region. I hope you find some of what you are looking for!
My family used sour cream in our dough too. I've had a hard time finding recipes w the sour cream. Thank you.
That dough recipe would be versatile Helga. Merry Christmas
Yes, it can be! Thank you Gaz!
Thank you for sharing the recipe. I grew up in the Mon Valley with Polish relatives. Pierogi and cabbage rolls were staples in my grandma's kitchen. Now I live on the west coast and it is so hard to find Eastern European food, not along Polish food. I've never made pierogi, but I think I'll give it a try after watching your video.
That's a beautiful part of PA! D make them and I hope it brings some of PA back to you out there!
You Rock!
LOL, thank you!
I have German and Irish heritage, and if it has potatoes, cabbage, or dough...I'm all for it 😊
LOL, same here! German/Polish/Swiss/Jewish/Seneca, LOL!
Just found your channel . Subscribing now . Happy holidays from Johnstown !
Thank you and welcome!
Thanks for sharing! I’m from south-central Pa. My husbands Mother always made pierogies at Easter and Christmas. She also made them with cooked prunes! You should try them. Absolutely delish! 1 whole prune in each one. Merry Christmas!
Oh yes, I've had them with prunes and mike just said I should do a batch of them. it's just that they aren't my favorites, lol. Mom loves them, though! Thank you and Merry Christmas!
“I frickiin’ love these...”, ahahaha!!! Merry Christmas Helga, you’re awesome!!!
Aww, thank you!
Thank you so much for your response. I will definitely try it and then I will let you know how they came out. Can you still use the same kind of dough as you would with the potato and cheese pierogies? Or would you use a more sweeter dough.
Yes you can! The same dough recipe is fine.
Hi Helga, I love homemade pierogies and yours looks absolutely delicious.
Thanks, Rick! Aren't they the best thing ever? Especially this time of year!
I’m from northeastern pa, my family always used a dough made with sour cream.
Never baking powder
❤
Hi Helga!
I grew up in Pennsylvania and was so excited to watch your video! I made the frozen boxed pierogi’s last night and said “ENOUGH OF THIS JUNK!” So looking forward to making yours!!! You are awesome. Subscribing for sure! Halusky is next. Gonna look for your recipe. God Bless you! ❤️
Thanks so much!
Huuuuuurrrrrrrting me! I went to Falling Waters PA thinking surely I’d find some there, willing to break my strict keto in the first couple months. Couldn’t find any. Then I found some keto noodle dough flour and tried making them from scratch with cabbage and ham, but they were only so so. I will probably have to break down and make the real deal potato and cheddar with real wheat flour sometime this winter. Felt that “so good!” part of your taste test.
Yes, it's hard to replicate with other materials. I tried when I did low carb years ago, used mashed cauliflower inside and bean flour for the pasta. It was ok, but definately NOT the real deal, LOL!
So happy I found you! Hubbys Gram made & sold. I think I remember when they were done cooking she pored melted butter over, cooled & bagged to freeze???
Typically, they will brush them with oil and then freeze so they don't stick but she may have used butter, too. Sounds good to me, LOL!
Dam. That's what I'm talking about
LOL, exactly!
👍
Congratulations on over 10,000 subs! Doris says her grandma from Russia made these just as you did. She wants me to marry you so she can get all the good food. LOL
Thanks very much! LOL, tell Doris to make a list for when you guys come north!
I am so glad I found this recipe. How about ones filled with cottage cheese and then fried?? My G ma made them. She was 100% Polish.
Absolutely! I make plain mashed taters (no butter or milk) and add drained cottage cheese with some chives for filling.
After boiling I place on lined parchment paper freeze for a few hours then bag them up
Yup, that's a great way to do them and save for later!
These look amazing!! How long would you cook them in the crockpot? Love that idea.
Typically, I add onions, 2 lb butter, roughly 48 pierogis (that fills a 5 qt crockpot) and put them on high 3 hrs. after mainly done, i put them on warm for a buffet, like when we have them Christmas Eve.
I love pierogis. And from the way you just made them, it doesn't seem that hard to make them. But I have a question. I've had them with potatoes and cheese and with saurkraut. But how would you make them with prunes. My uncle used to make them with prunes, cottage cheese and potatoes and cheese. He used to use farmer's cheese (goat cheese). Do you have any suggestions. Great video.
Ask and ye shall receive! here is the prune recipe for you.
Prune Pierogi Filling
Ingredients
20 prunes, with pits
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 stick cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon cloves, ground
Directions
Gather the ingredients.
Place whole prunes in a medium saucepan, cover with water one inch above the prunes.
Bring to a boil, add sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, and cloves.
Cover and turn off the heat. Let steep for 15 minutes.
When cool enough to handle, drain, discard the cinnamon stick and remove pits from prunes.
Let cool completely.
Refrigerate until ready to use. as your filling.
May I suggest, substituting sweet potato for the white. Its fantastic that way!
Oh, those would be good, thank you!
Plus if you brown the onion& garlic w bacon grease add this along w cheddar to sweet potato you wont believe how scrumptious this end product is. Yw
Biggest Tip: Let your potatoes cool completely before making the pierogi. This will give you firm potatoes to work with. You don't want them runny.
Thanks, Mary! Mine were dry when cooled so no issues there. Merry Christmas!
@@PennsylvaniacookingBlogspot Was more for those who have never made them. ♥️
Helga I am originally from Pa now live in southern Delaware. I can’t find any good Kielbasa interested in fresh and smoked. Are there any online polish butchers who ship? Can anyone help me out. Thanks
Down your way, the best I could find was in Wilmington. www.delawareprovisioncoinc.com/delaware-provision-co/ They opened one in Millville also--www.delawareprovisioncoinc.com/press/ The other place down that way is Hickman's www.hickmansmeats.com/meat in Rehoboth Beach. From here, www.kielbasy.net/ They have some of the best Kielbasa on the east coast and i believe they ship. Pronounced kov-a-lon-icks. Let me know how you make out if these don't pan out for some reason.
Going to try this too. Can you deep fry pierogi's?
Yes, but only after they've been frozen. You can't fresh ones. If frozen, make sure oil is 350F and drop for roughly 4 minutes, or until they are golden and floating.
@@PennsylvaniacookingBlogspot Thx!! 😊
I think I must be part Polish....as I adore your food. My mother's surname was Geisler.... Any help?
LOL, your name is swiss german, and was mid high German for goat herds. My father's mother was from Interlaken Switzerland. A lot of the eastern european foods overlap like this and we definately inherit the love of them! Thank you!
You don't dip them in sour cream?
I do and like them with applesauce or cottage cheese as well. But not everyone likes that, LOL!
Do you make your own sauerkraut?
Thank you!
Why doesn’t anybody know how to pronounce the word pierogies. I can’t explain how to properly say it. It has distinct way it is pronounced correctly. And yes i’am polish. We have been making these and homemade polish sausage for the last 74 years i have been alive. I grew up learning how to make these as well eating this kind of food every other week my entire life.
Actually, I do. However, this whole region, settled by Polish, Lithuanian, Ukrainian, and eastern European peoples all say it a bit differently. It just depends on which side of the mountain you grew up on here in the Coal Region. How wonderful to have such a legacy! I grew up eating this all my life as well, and we used to make all our own kielbasa and sausages when we still had the farm. Does your family have their own sausage recipe like so many others here do?
Does it really matter how people pronounce it, why get so upset?
Since you’re Polish, you should already know it’s not pierogies- it’s pierogi
