This week was certainly one of the coldest weeks of the year so far, and with cold weather comes some really great foods. One of my favorites is a nice batch of pierogi, which is an Eastern European dish. For those who have no idea what I’m talking about, pierogi are basically little dough dumplings filled with anything from meat to cheese and usually potato.
The recipe I decided to go with is a potato and onion recipe which is definitely my favorite kind. Making the dough for this recipe is definitely the most complicated part. I have a lot of friends who have their own dough recipes so it’s really interesting to see the different variations different families have. For simplicity’s sake, I ended up just following the recipe from the website I found.
I was genuinely surprised by how easy this recipe was, compared to what I expected. It only took about an hour to make altogether, and I had plenty to keep in the fridge for the rest of the week. Fair warning, this recipe makes A LOT of pierogi so be prepared to keep the extra ones in your fridge or freezer.
If you’re looking for a warm and filling recipe that will give you enough to snack on for the rest of the week, I would definitely consider checking this recipe out.
As always, if anyone has any recommendations for a recipe or idea that they think I should look into, feel free to let me know. I’d love to hear what you’d be interested in reading about. I’m going to attach the link to the recipe I used this week down below so that anyone who wants to try it out can. Also, if you try a different variation of this recipe that would be super interesting to hear about too. Let me know if you do!
That’s so cool! I will try it out and let you know how it goes
My cousin just married a Ukrainian girl and the had pierogis at their reception!! This is so cool I would love to try this recipe!
I love Pierogis with a passion. They actually had some sort of Pierogi day at the dining hall today for lunch. They gave out free pierogi shirts and chapstick which I found to be very weird.
