Polish food is the ultimate comfort food. Well cooked, mix of flavors, savory.
Stay strong Poland! Much love from the USA!
6 minutes into the video... omg I am Polish why I am listening to this :D
because you are hungry :)
And you're proud that someone is talking about your culinary heritage!
Aby się dowiedzieć że gulasz jest zupa hehehe ;)

Favorites during my visit -- Pierogi; Bigos - stew; Golabki - cabbage rolls; Pasztet - pâté; Rosól - chicken soup; Florentynki - florentine cookie; Kołaczki - rolled cookie with fillings; *_Vodka_* 😀👍
We have very similar tastes Tosh :) and we will throw in an extra Live session one of these weekends just for you :)
Your 'origin story' of zapiekanka is surprisingly close to truth. They were born in the 70. when comunist regim cooled down a little bit and allowed some small buissnesses to be. Sinse there was close to nothing on the shelfs, people would mash together baguettes, mushroom and onions or whataever was available at the time. Nowadays you can buy them with more fancy stuff - rucola, shrimps, goat cheese, yada yada, but classic is a classic.
Also PIEROGI!
I’m in love with Poland, I really have to go there!
Same here!!
I’m in love with it too, but i don’t have to go there, because i am already here :)
+Filipeczeg
You're fortunate and I'm " jelly as helly!! " Do they say that in Poland?! 😀 Can you find a Polish-American a job There?!
:-P
Filipeczeg let’s change, you come to Brazil and I’ll go to Poland! What do you think? 😁
Then I suggest you visiting Czech Republic
It's like Poland but better in every possible way, and I'm polish myself so can say that
The best dish in Poland is silesian beef roulade with potato dumplings (they are without any filling) and red cabbage
that is a good one!!!
Offcourse dont listen this idiot SILESIAN are richest regio from Poland thats why people something like him from small polish village dont like people from.Silesia

Great timing! We are in Krakow right now. And I must say it is beautiful in winter as it is in the summer. So hello from Krakow.
Hi Krisia! have fun!
If you are in Kraków right now, you can try find some of ours "bar mleczny" restaurants theyre very cheap and have traditional food too
there's great Pierogi place on Slawkowska street, it's called "Przypiecek" and they have the most delicious pierogi I've ever eaten. I always eat there when I have a break between classes :)
@@Agnessa92 dziekuje Agnessa for the tips. I have been in the bar mleczny, every day, great food great prices. I'll be on the look out for the pierogi place. Krakow is beautiful.
@@woltersworld thanks Mark!
Traveling to Poland in a few months found your videos very helpful! Thank you ❤️
I absolutely love your videos. Thank you… they’re so helpful. Heading to Krakow in 6 days. ☺️
I would also say: Poland is a very vegetarian-friendly place! Sure, LOTS of dishes are meat-based. But there is also a huge variety of vegetarian, or even vegan food (Catholic heritage, lots of fasting back in the days). You can get a lot of fish as well (especially local freshwater fish like trout, zander, or carp. Wels is great too, although it's not freshwater).
Also many traditional dishes get a modern make-over in many places (things like pierogi made with spelt or wholegrain flour, or with spinach and feta, or pumpkin puree, even guacamole), or an interesting fusion with some other cuisine(s).
For the taste of water: it often depends on the quality of the pipes of your building, and on the city/town your're in. It's always safe to drink, it's only a matter of taste. I personally am not very fond of Warsaw water, I usually add a slice of lemon to it.
For typically Polish food I would also recommmend "kotlet de volaille" - a chicken breast roll, classically stuffed with butter , but sometimes comes with cheese and mushrooms too.
Sweets and candy t find in stores: Delicje (a soft bisquit with fruit jelly and chocolate icing) and Ptasie Mleczko (milk souffle in chocolate cover).
I would also try Polish soft cheese: twaróg (or twarożek). It's a classic for breakfast. You can cut it in slices and eat on a bread with some kosher salt and butter, or make a paste with some sour creme or yoghurt, spring onions/chives and radishes.
And sałatka jarzynowa, or veggie salat. Every house make it, and it tastes a bit different in every house. It's a salad made of cooked potatoes, eggs, cooked carrots, pickles, canned grean peas, and some others, depending on preference (celery, parsley root, onions, corn, apples), with mayo. Can be eaten solo or as a side dish.
And there is also mizeria, a side dish made of fresh cucumbers, sour cream (or yoghurt), and lots of dill. Great for schnitzel or chicken.
In the summer I would definately try chłodnik litewski, a gazpacho-style cold soup made of beetroots and sour milk/buttermilk/yoghurt (yes, it's colour it hot pink, but it's not readioactive!).
There, I named seven dishes, non of them with cabbage :D
berlineczka please don’t come here if you’re a soy boy
Very insightful! Thank you for sharing this :)
Terrible
My family has a lot of Polish heritage and every year we make pierogi's, over 100 as a tradition, we are gonna make them Saturday.
awesome! have fun!
@@woltersworld thank you
Pierogi not pierogi's ! Word "Pierogi" is already in plurar form!
Atak Snajpera you must be fun at parties
A great review as always. Thank you for stating pierogi instead of pierogis. In my view Poland indeed has one of the best soups. My favorite alcoholic drink in miód pitny - mead. Poland has a long tradition with this drink. My favorite treat is sękacz but I believe you can only get it in the eastern part of Poland.
2:11 sounds like it might be a poppy seed roll. My Italian relatives from the Youngstown area have those shipped every holiday. Here in the Chicago area my go to Polish place is Czerwone Jabluszko or Red Apple Buffet where they have have most of these. Hoping to try them in Warszawa when we can travel again.
My family came from the Tatra's and I would like to spend some time there exploring genealogy and getting a sense of what life might have been like there for my ancestors.
After 3 months in Poland last summer, I found filet mignon a common steak offered everywhere. No beaver. The soups and breads are the best anywhere you go in Poland. The milk bars are awesome and very inexpensive as you’ve mentioned before.
This is a real advertisement for Polish food. You're a great guy
Check out a Milk Bar if you have a chance, it's definitely a different experience.
true!
@@woltersworld Is the Moloko a chain over there?
Love your Poland videos Mark!
Cheers
Thank you! We still have a couple more to put out so hoping to get those out this month and next.
Polish food is the best! and i am not even Polish lol...but i really enjoyed the traditional polish good when i ate at Restaurants in Warsaw and Poznan. Everything was always fresh and delicious and good quality food.
Thanks for the video !!!!
Actually the pronunciation is THE EASY PART of learning Polish .... Yeah, the words only look hard to say, but once you sound them out, and learn the various sound combos and such the rest of it will come easily.
Thank you for sharing, keep up the good work friend.Like
This is a really good channel
I’m so glad to be back in America watching your videos! Love your videos ❤️
Thank you very much !
Pączki is a MUST
In june I have about 4 and a half day in Poland. I'm staying in Krakow. Two days are fully planned (Energylandia) and one half planned (Legendia). I think the rest of the time will be spent eating.
I am going to London and Poland in May and February. Soon after I bought the tickets you came out with more of these videos lol It's awesome!
thank you
You forgot the pork knuckle!
(With hunter’s stew and potatoes of course)
And I don’t think you mentioned the Oscypek sheep’s milk smoked cheese. It is sold almost everywhere, grilled and with a side of cranberry jam it’s delicious
Sylwester godzina 14.23 a ja słucham jak koleś po angielsku mówi polskim jedzeniu.
I studied in Poland this past summer. Go to Restaurant Ed Red. There is one in both Warsaw and Krakow. Also get Sernik and cappacino at awiteks. And get up early and get an Obwarzanek in Krakow, but only buy in the morning when they are fresh.
Great overview of Polish foods. Those Pierogi's look great, Wolter! Thanks for the video.
Krakow looks beautiful. It’s on my list. We hope to go in 2021 We do a trip every 2 years and Ireland is next in October. Great video. Thanks.
very cool!
Samantha Gaudet 3:10 Try oscypek with cranberries. If you like smaller cities with wonderful architecture, see Zamość, It is on the UNESCO list. In Canada, you will not see something like that. A good one-day trip.
Szymon Zieliński sounds perfect.
@@samanthagaudet1461It was supposed to be an ideal Renaissance city. We have a lot of hidden gems. Have a nice trip.
Szymon Zieliński I can’t wait. Poland has been on my bucket list forever
I LOVE Polish Food!!❤️
Damn, I can't wait to have some of the sweet Polish food during Christmas eve. One of the reasons why I love Christmas, food.
me too :)
My family still has Vigelia, ( I hope that's spelled correctly). It's a traditional Polish Christmas Eve dinner. We usually have homemade pierogi and traditional Polish mushroom soup with a couple of sides. The only problem is I wish Christmas would be celebrated every month.
Love you and the family Mark. Been to Mexico and Canada. But love to travel. Live vicariously off you 😁😂😁
I was raised on those dishes. And yes, I will kiss my lady after eating the potato pancakes with onion because she would also eat those as well!
Been there few months ago.
I loved warsaw.
I liked the polish food.
Its funny since every Traditional polish restaurant has exact same stuff.. what does get boring ish.
I also had the pleasure to eat cow stomach soup.... What i liked tilll my slavic girlfriend told me what the weirdly slimey stuff were....
Thomas Elzinga It is called “flaki” and it’s definitely one of these dishes that you have to be careful with when showing it to foreigners, but almost every Pole likes it and it’s REALLY filling.
@@jakubpomykaa3625 yeah my slovene Girlfriend ...mentioned they had something realy similar in slovenia.
It wasent a bad dish... But i could have lived without the slimey stomach too :p
Traditional Polisf food looks same, because after the WW2 Poles was exiled from east part of old Polish borders (this day, Ukraine, Belarus, Lithuania) to core Polish lands.
Result is Poles are very mixed up and there is no very much difference in Poles, it's only few dialects now.
Thomas Elzinga I don’t get bored of our food
Eat everything its all good
I love Poland
NICE!!!!
You forgot that we also have sauerkraut soup so basically another cabbage dish :D
true :) very true!
Sauerkraut soup?! That is intriguing. Do you have a favorite recipe for that?
@@EmilyKira I haven't made it myself yet, but this looks like a traditional recipe ua-cam.com/video/XCe94_GPIrE/v-deo.html
The last step - frying the fluor in butter - is optional. Many cooks put ribs or other bones at the begging with the veggies. And dried wild forest mushrooms! 💚 It's important to add the cabbage at the end because it's acidic and the potatoes won't cook well.
A similar dish is pickle soup, you just add shredded pickles instead of the sauerkraut 😉
Thank you so much, @@martynakaczmarek4794! Sounds delicious. I will have to try this.
Sauerkraut soup is one of my favourite things to make anything with sauerkraut mmm lol
The black seeds in a sweet bun are poppy seeds.
When it comes to the soups, there is only one queen in Poland and her name is "zupa ogórkowa" ; it's a cucumber soup, it's made from a specially prepared cucumbers - "ogórki kiszone" (
2,1K hello Wolter🤗🇵🇱❤
Awesome, thanks for the video!
you are very welcome!
Mark! Those little black seeds are poppy! Poppy seed filling is very popular.
thank you! i had a total brain fart during that part of the video :)
@@woltersworld You made me laugh!
You said peirogi is 'not super filling', i beg to differ and say they're the most filling food i've ever encountered... And i have eaten alot of them!
Im in Warsaw and tried mostly all!its good!
Please visit Slovenia.
Winner of green tourism destination last year..
Look up "bled" and "ljubljana"
Thomas Elzinga Slovakia?
I’m just kidding, but he should visit that again too
I have beena nd loved it. i am going to take the family this coming summer so will have videos end of summer or next fall when we are back
@@woltersworld thats Great :D
If you are from the coal towns of Pa I grew up on this food
I very like your videos.
thank you :)
You're right about the tea. I drink tea for as long as I can remember, probably since I was 2 years old. I think it's safe to say, that tea is number one beverage in Poland. Everybody I know drinks it by the "gallons".
Kanapki in the morning by 11 my grandmother already making soup then obiad is at 2pm and kolacja at 6pm. Polish people don't eat dinner at 5 or 6 that is supper
Sweet mother of god, he chose the pizza zapiekanka instead of the godly mushroom and cheese one D:
I'm Polish and I love zapiekankas. It's like pizza, but on a baguette. You can have any toppings and any sauce, on some good ol' melted cheese, all on a hot and crispy baguette. Hell, you can even decorate it with some ketchup/mayo/mustard on top...
Man, I'm sooo hungry rn....
Zapiekanka needs to have chives on top, otherwise it doesn't count!
@@martynakaczmarek4794 what? XD
Why? I mean, I would eat it... well, whatever you like XD
+Killkor
Can I get black olives on mine🍕?!😀
@@charlies.5777 of course. Black olives are great ^^
Killkor I’m going to Poland in a few days for the first time the food looks so good 🤤
You should try "flaczki"
Try Flaczki ! NICE VIDEO 👍
bro. the zupa is the best!
I'm from poland
4 weeks and i will be for 9 days in warsaw. I am glad that i rented my apartment in old town right above a tea house. 9 days 2 pounds per day should fit gaining weight🤣🤣🤣
Great timing! I just arrived in Krakow from Jordan, I'm sick of falafel 😅
Great video as always! I can't wait to do a euro trip!
thank you!
Dude, those “black seeds” are poppy seeds. Unfortunately this video made me extremely hungry and (except for the picked herring which I wouldn’t eat on a bet) looked incredibly delicious. Thanks for this video!
I love pickled herring both in white wine sauce and sour cream sauce. I also love the sausage made with barley blood and organ meat.
Can u tell the cost of 1L beer and 1L water?????
Love Your videos
I love polish food...mmmmniam ;)
Cabbage Mushrooms are most traditional Pierogi
I have a question? In order to visit Poland do U.S citizens need a visa ?
Goala not ordinarily, unless you stay past a certain time period (90 days in most of the EU)
Don't forget folks about the size of dishes in Poland once you come. Some restaurants, specially those called "KARCZMA" serve a huge sized dishes like Kotlet Schabowy (Wiener Schnitzel) that is in size of half of the big plate! 😎
The doner kebab in Poland is quite different than anywhere else (it is very localised). There is always the search for the best one. You should try it.
Also the 'schnitzel' is schabowy, the most popular dish with fried sour croute and potatoes (the national dish).
The other 'must have' dish is tatar (raw beef) with vodka. Look for it in any shot bar.
I love dumplings (pierogi, pirozhki, etc). 👍
Hello in Poland again Walter :D
Eat everything. Poles know food.
Hi very cool video. Just to clarify, when you talking about mushrooms, that is not white mushrooms but wild, forest mushrooms apart from that awesome clip. All the best. Cheers
4:00 - Mister, PIEROGI (already plural) not pierogis.
pozdro od pani lubowieckiej
Beeg-oss - that's how I say it and people seem to understand me :)
If you like pierogi and want a really fun experience in Krakow I went on this cooking course: www.deliciouspoland.com/pierogi-cooking-class/ - the teacher is a little old lady who has been making them for 50 years and they do the class in a little restaurant outside of the city. Highly recommended.
Mark, the roll with black seeds is poppyseeds....❤️
I love babcia
I looovvveee Poland and Bigos! 😄
Who want to meet and walk around warsaw?
I just gave you the 966th thumb up/like. Do you know what that means? ^^
The soup isn't famous in every city, it's more of a southern and SW "tradition", mostly I saw it In Prussia, And we don't use cabbage that much but we do use it in a dish that's rolled with tendered meat (I don't remember the name). Last thing, PIEROGIS NEVER GO WITH GABADGE, ITS A DISGARCE IF THEY HAVE,PIEROGIS GO WITH ONIONS AND MEAT BUT THEY NEVER GO WITH CABADGE
I'm very polish btw
Enjoy your time in Poland 🇵🇱
Greetings from Bielsko-Biała 🇵🇱
Kordian Moskala fuck poorland
Hi. Love the vidoes. Just wanted to ask if for the flavor of pierogi, you meant either the farmers cheese-potato mix or the sweet cheese. Cottage cheese wouldn't work as it has too much moisture to be used as filling for pierogi.
Polish menudo soup is excellent(beef tripe boile few times with fresh water and than added to beef bulion ) no fail small.
What happend to polish scnitzel similar to American hamburger.,corse ground beef rumshtick is exelent.
“Have some beaver while you’re here!”
😂😂😂
I’m sorry...it’s the 4th grader inside me that comes out sometimes 😂😂
we all have that 4th grader in us
I love European products just ask my wife 😂
How long are you staying? Will there be a meet up? 🙏🏻
I am back in the US right now :(
Varsovian speeking. Acually the things that you pointed out in this video are only eaten by the tourists or when you visit your family for a dinner, but what we really love are mostly and that will probably surprise you Vegan restaurants that serve Fallafels and other simillar stuff. Also we do love our Burgers not the ones from Mcdonalds but the real ones. Obviously we do eat a lot of international cuisine from sushi to pizza but this is really the case for most of the countries. There are some nice restaurants which you visit on special ocasions and the things that are served there are usualy some experiment fusion shit or something fancy in this area.
the potato pancakes and jelly donuts wouldn't by any chance be called latkes and sufganiyot in poland? just curious
Ah! Mario Batagli! Se'......wait.....what?
Do they cater much for vegetarians in Poland? Hoping to go next year with my family but me and my sister are vegetarian.
It's been more and more popular recently. Nowadays there are even restaurants serving only vegetarian meals, no problem finding something without meat, it's just not traditional Polish food
You don't need to worry. I'm vegetarian, and there are plenty of vegetarian or vegan restaurants in biggest cities.
Agreed. You may have a problem in some hotels though, in mine they dont serve vegetarian food :/ but in big city youll quickly find something vege tasty
@@Natalia-vh6ms good to hear, thanku! :)
Rosół, żurek, barszcz czerwony, pierogi, polska kiełbasa Polish sausage, oscypek z żurawiną, kopytka z sosem pieczeniowym, kapusta kiszona, pierogi z kapustą kiszoną, pierogi z mięsem. Ogórek kiszony, smalec. Kluski śląskie. Ps. Jak to ładnie mówisz kiełbasa nie jest daniem only produktem thank you.
Beat soup w/ dumplings is a delicious must. Also do Flaki and Tatar. A shot of vodka is welcomed after you had those two.
Krakow was great!
The herring goes great with vodka. ;)
