    Bigos.... My favorite. I make it (about 5 liter batch) every few weeks. I pack it in containers and freeze, then defrost a container or two at a time. I use half fresh cabbage and half sauerkraut, with added smoked sausage, bacon, carrots, wild mushrooms, onions, and various spices. It's a great multi-purpose meal. If you add enough chopped meats into it, it can be a meal itself, or use it as a side, or filler for baked potatoes, or just serve over garlic mashed potatoes... it's perfect.

    Hey Deana. Two things about pierogi you`ve got to try. First - of course - "uszka" - mainstream Christmas Eve dish, traditionally filled with dried forest mushroom, and put into Polish borscht (barszcz). Of course the best in welcoming Polish home, but some good restaurant maybe does it good enough.
    Second - more obscure: regular pierogi with dried plums, cinnamon and powdered sugar. Not many people makes those, our family always makes it on Christmas Eve too, but it is not regular Christmas food. But it is winter dish (as dried fruit traditionally were used to get some vitamins during long winters).

You do not know what my mother did and you should not assume anything. She was born in 1924 and she was a great cook she cooked up a storm. My grandparents fed dozens of people during the Depression on their Farm. Canada has around a million people with Polish ancestry and the United States has almost 9 million people with Polish ancestry. To this day we have polish delicatessens. Americans do not have to go to Canada for anything but Canada gets 70% of its food from the United States and Mexico since Canada is covered in ice 7 months out of the year. Most of Canada is just like Siberia. Curd twarog is easy to make there are recipes for it all over the internet.

    "Bigos" and "dumplings with cabbage and mushrooms" tasted similar to you because they have the same base, i.e. sauerkraut and forest mushrooms, as boletus mushrooms. Only sauerkraut and mushrooms are used for dumplings. Fresh and sauerkraut are used for "bigos", which makes bigos less sour. Bigos is also accompanied by meat, cold cuts, dried plums and red wine. Bigos is cooked for several hours over low heat. It is most delicious when reheated the next day.

    Meine Favoriten sind pierogi ruskie und die fleischige Sorte (z mięsem)😋. Bei den Kohlrouladen hängt es viel vom Geschmack ab, denn es gibt viele Varianten davon, die verschieden schmecken, aber genauso ist es mit Bigos, die einen machen Bigos mit Fleisch und Wurst, die anderen nur mit Fleisch oder nur mit Wurst und mit Pflaumen drin, daher in jeder Region werden die Sachen anders schmecken. Bei dem Käsekuchen ist es der benutzte Käse (Twaróg), der früher in so einem Block verkauft wurde, fen musste man durch den Fleischwolf jagen 😅 damit er diese cremige Konsistenz bekommt, heute kann man den auch so pürieren aber der Geschmack ist einmalig. Ich habe i Deutschland alle Sorten ausprobiert; Quark, auch den kernigen Frischkäse püriert, Mascarpone (auch wenn es italienisch ist) aber den Geschmack vom twaróg kann man mit den anderen nicht herzaubern. Wenn euch diese süßen Pierogi mit twaróg geschmeckt haben probiert pierogi leniwe (faule Pierogen😂); die werden aus gestampften Kartoffeln, twaróg und Mehl gemacht; serviert werden sie mit geschmolzener Butter, Zimt und Zucker darüber gestreut❤❤❤.

    The best and basic, and oldschool's way of filling pączek is with rose (yes, a flower) jam. And the donut you ate had been too long in oil and it coused the damage of the structure of the donut: it wasn't fluffy enought and dry 😕. Kotlet schabowy in Polish cousine comes always with mashed potatoes.
    Combining kotlet with potatoes' cold salad is a typical Austrian's dish.
    Yes, you made exellent choices in Katowice and in Warszawa concerning typical Polish dishes. And the best (for me) cake in Upper Silesia is makowiec - cake with crashed poppy seed. Yes, you tried drożdżówka z makiem (the cake after the donut), but makowiec and drożdżówka z makiem are two totally -(!) different cakes. Belive me 😊. BTW the whole Silesia region (Katowice is the capital city of Upper Silesia region) was a part of German for more than 120 years. So Silesian cousine has a lot of similarities with German and Austrian's cousine. Greetings from Katowice 🙂.

    The pistachio cheesecake looks delicious. I have had pistachio cheesecake in the United States in a fine restaurant in Rehoboth Beach Delaware a few years back. The pistachios were chopped up smaller and covering the top and there was a sauce drizzled over the top running down the sides and it had a New York style taste to it. In my opinion New York style cheesecake is one of the best cheesecakes in the world.

    When it comes to pierogi, you can actually have it filled with anything that comes into your mind. Still ruskie (i like when the filling is soury - you need to use good cheese for it - and peppery), cabbage-and-mushrooms and meat are the most popular. The roasted barley groats filling is also very good.
    But it seems to me that there is another dish, highly underestimated. These are krokiety - croquettes: a pancake rolled around the filling, then breaded and deep fried. The meat and cabbage or cabbage and mushrooms filling is typically used. Super delicious, especially with barszcz.

    This isn't used cottage cheese. Here we use curd - twaróg. This is a different type of cheese. It can be fat, semi-fat or lean. We use it for dumplings, pancakes, breakfast spreads and baked goods. The easiest way is to put it on bread with butter, slices of cucumber, tomato and fresh herbs. My favorite dumplings with meat are dumplings stuffed with duck. You can get them in a good restaurant. 😉 I also love kołduny served in broth. These are small dumplings originally filled with lamb. You won't eat great Bigos in any restaurant. Sanitary regulations don't allow traditional cooking (minimum three days). For bigos, a mixture of sauerkraut and white cabbage is used, there should be several types of meat and sausages, dried mushrooms, red wine, dried and smoked plums, there may also be honey or apple. I love bigos prepared with venison.

    As for pierogi, there is a huge array of fillings, but for more interesting types you need mid-high end restaurant that digs into truly traditional pre-war polish cousine. For example, quite popular and delicious fillings were made from slow cooked organ meats: kidneys, lungs, hearts, tongues. They were usually seasoned with thyme, sage and/or marjoram or served with herbal sauce. Sometimes buckwheat was added to filling.
    Other delicious but rather high end pierogi are with crayfish meat. My all time favourite, however, are duck meat pierogi in orange or pear sauce.

      You don't know how many dishes in Polish and German cuisine have the same roots. Your schnitzel is a schabowy - Polish pork chop. In your case it is served with potato salad, in our case it is served with potatoes and fried cabbage. It came from Vienna as a poor version of Wiener schnitzel made of veal. This is not a dish from Vienna, however. Because it's a poor version of the Milanese cutlet, made from veal tenderloin(The dish has been served since the 13th century.). The dish was brought by Marshal Radetzy to Vienna.😜 Alsatian Choucrote in Germany became cabbage with sausage, and in Poland it became bigos 🤣🤣🤣😂 etc.

Oczywiście mogłem powiedzieć, że mi nie smakuje lub coś podobnego i wtedy nie było problemu zamknąć temat.

    Very nice. Regarding Bar Mleczny some say this is traditional polish food some disagree. The reason is that it is more set in comunism era, where there were lack of food so the dishes were quite simple, low cost. The traditional polish cuisine roots are back in XVII-XIX century where mostly noblemen were eating lots of venison. There are still restaurants across the country where they serve traditional polish food which I encourage you to visit

    Hello, regarding dumplings we can divide them into two types. Sweet dumplings, i.e. pure cheese, chocolate, etc. And with fruit fillings. Fruit fillings such as blueberries, strawberries, cherries, plums and any other fruit.
    Not sweet dumplings, i.e. the most popular Russian dumplings, meat dumplings, mushroom dumplings, cabbage dumplings, spinach dumplings. Of course, there are combinations such as cheese, blueberries, cabbage with mushrooms. The filling for dumplings can be any, I suggest looking for a good dumpling shop with original fillings. I like to eat sweet dumplings with cream and sugar, and other dumplings with a spicy sauce. But everyone adapts the combinations of dumplings and additions to their own taste.

    I used to eat very often in that Bar Bambino some 20 years ago when I was a student. It seems like a different era, because the milk bars (bary mleczne) were much rougher and cheaper then. Definitely not suitable for tourists. You could find there mainly senior citizens (emeryci), students (studenci) and... the homeless (bezdomni). My favourite lunch meal set was tomato soup with rice (zupa pomidorowa z ryżem) and pancakes with cheese (naleśniki z serem). Bar Bambino was quite good back then compared to somewhat repulsive competition: Złota Kurka or Prasowy. It was in Złota Kurka (Polish for "Little Golden Hen", but also "Golden Chanterelle") when I had the worst "pierogi ruskie" in my life, somewhere around 2001-2002. The filling wasn't yellowish, it was orange and disgusting.
