Polish food thread?

Polish food thread?

Poland cannot into space, but Poland can into kitchen.

I can give you a bunch of recipes, as long as you tell me what would you like me to translate and post. Meanwhile, I'll keep posting some of my stuff.

First up - a traditional Polish dish, Russian pierogi's! You're gonna have to convert the grams and mililiters though, I guess.

Dough, my grandma's recipe:

500g flour
330 ml water
1 egg yolk
1/2 teaspoon of salt
1 tablespoon oil

Mix the flour with salt. Make an indent in it, pour in the water and yolk. Mix it with a fork till it all comes together, then start working the dough. Do it for about 2-3 minutes. Then pour the oil into your palm and work the dough for another 1-2 minutes. It should be smooth. Leave it for at least 10-15 minutes, cover with a cloth.

Stuffing:

1kg of potatoes
250g quark, full fat
2 onions
Salt, black pepper, sweet red pepper (the spice)

Boil potatoes till they're soft, mash them while they're still hot. Wait till they get cold, mix in the quark and onions. You should dice the onions and fry them for a bit on a pan with a bit of oil. Then add about 1 tsp of the peppers. And salt to taste. It should be quite strong in taste.

Then roll out the dough, cut circles with the biggest glass you have. Put about a tablespoon of the stuffing inside, fold in half, form the pierogies.

Put them in boiling, salted water for about 6-10 minutes. When they rise to the top give them another 2-3 minutes and you're good to go!

Tastes best with extra onion and bacon bits.

We call these "hooves", or in some part of Poland - "lazy dumplings".

800g potatoes, boiled, mashed and cold
100g flour
100g potato flour/potato starch
1 egg
200 quark

Mash the quark with the potatoes. Add the flours and the egg, add a pinch of salt. Mix everything together. The dough will be sticky and soft, but that's okay. Roll a...well, roll, with your hands, flour the surface of your table generously. Wet your knife and cut the roll in a slanted way. Boil the dumplings in boiling water for about 4 minutes, untill they rise to the top. Drain and serve with melted butter, cinnamon and sugar.

I used to love these when I was a kid.

Potato casserole.

Will I ever post a recipe without a potato? Who knows!

Składniki:

1,5kg potatoes
1 good sausage
250g mushrooms
200g sour cream
200g cheese (I used mozarella, which is not Polish at all, but fuck it, it melts nicely)
2 eggs
Pepper, salt
4 cloves of garlic


Boil potatoes, whole. Do not overcook them, actually they should still be hard and kinda unedible. It's better to undercook them than overcook them. Rinse with cold water, wait till they get colder. Slice them into thick (1cm) slices.

Slice the sausage and the mushrooms, grate the cheese. In a small bowl mix the sour cream with the eggs, salt, half a teaspoon of pepper and smashed and chopped garlic.

Put one layer of potatoes into the dish you'll be using to bake the caserrole. Then put half of your mushrooms and sausage on it. Pour 1/4 of the sour cream thingy over it, sprinkle with 1/4 of the cheese. Repeat. Then put the third layer of potatoes on top, pour the rest of the sour cream mixture over it, sprinkle with the rest of the cheese. Bake at 160 degrees for about 30 minutes - the potatoes should be soft, cheese should be brownish and the cream/egg mixture should be sort-of-solid.

Warning - falls apart on the plate and looks bad, but who cares.

Fucking amazing. I love it.

> polska recipe without potato
>impossibru

is it a desert or a side???

Damn right!

I was about to stop because there was no polishfood love, but there we go.


These are yeast steamed buns, you can eat them with either a sweet yoghurt, fruit sauce (like smoothie'd strawberries), or with a mushroom sauce. Or as a side with your meat dish. Very versatile! I'm going to use an internet picture for this one, since mine was not very appetizing.

Recipe for 8 buns:


300g flour
Half a glass of milk (125ml)
1 egg
20g melted butter
15g fresh yeast (or 7g of the dry type)
Pinch of salt
1/2 tbsp of salt

If you're using fresh yeast mix them with milk, about 50g of flour and sugar. Mix the whole thing and wait till it gets bubbly. If you're using dry yeast you can skip that part. Mix everything, except the melted butter, and work the dough till it's soft. Then pour the butter over it and work it a bit more. Put it into a bowl, cover with a damp cloth and wait for about an hour until it doubles in size.

Then work the dough for a minute, separate it into 8 pieces. Form round buns. Let them rest and rise for about 15 minutes. Steam them in a steaming basket or in a sieve covered with a cover or a cloth. They will double in size, so leave plenty of room!

You can freeze them if you make too much.

We often just eat sweet dinners. It's filling enough to be a main meal, it's not eaten as a dessert.

AND YET
SEE

Time to clog the arteries.

Pork knuckle baked in beer!

A portion for two.

2 big pork knuckles
mustard
a few bay leafs
a few pieces of allspice
black pepper
salt
garlic (a whole head/bulb)
1 can of beer, light one (like, not the guiness type)

Put the pork knuckles in boiling water, with a tbsp of salt, rest of the spices and 5-6 cloves of garlic - don't peel it, cut it in half. Boil them for 1,5 hour. Then put them on the plate, let them cool down and dry.

Put them in a dish in which you'll be baking them, pour about a centimeter of beer, sprinkle with salt. Cut the skin a bit. Put in another 5-6 cloves of garlic. Bake it in the oven for about an hour, in 180 degrees Celcius, pouring some of the sauce over it every 10-15 minutes. The more you do it, the more crispy the skin will be. For the last 10 minutes turn up the heat to 210 degrees C. Serve with sauerkraut!

>traditional Polish dish, Russian pierogi's
>traditional Polish
>Russian

Fuck off retard

It was a joke. You clearly do not have the deep understand of irony that is present in all people who live East of Berlin.

I can't help the fact, that traditional Polish food is called russian's pierogi, cheesecake in Vienna style, and beans a'la Brittany. And I'm not even kidding!

>It was a joke. You clearly do not have the deep understand of irony that is present in all people who live East of Berlin.

Eastern bloc fell many decades ago old fag

i will be making these

i'm trying to seduce a polish man
give me more recipes OP

for real tho...

when r yall niggas gon make some shit that us paleo niggas can eat

By Potatoes boiled mashed and cold you mean the same thing you did with the Pierogio filling I guess?

Anyway thanks a lot Polanon

I moved to central CT a few years ago, and consider myself very fortunate to be close to the very Polish city of New Britain. I go to Martin Rosol's there all the time for their smoked kielbasa, and in the spring, they have a Little Poland festival where you can get all kinds of fresh-cooked Polish yummies.

A coworker of mine lives there, and I've had the chance to sample some of the Polish comfort food that his mom and aunt have made, including a sour-rye soup called zurek (their version contains chopped kielbasa, ham, bacon, farmer cheese, and boiled eggs in a rye broth with grated horseradish).

And on Friday mornings, the best rye bread I've ever had gets delivered to the Podlasie store. I sometimes see old folks hanging around waiting for it.

Here's the soup. It's not photogenic but let me tell you it was some of the best comfort food I'd ever had. You grate lots of horseradish over it, and at the end, you have an awesome horseradishey broth to drink from the bottom.

Kielbasa sandwich with onions and kraut that I got at this year's festival. There were lots of stands; this one was run by the Zieleniak grocery.

Grated horse radish is awesome.

Some bigass pierogi that I also got. This stand belonged to a local Polish organization whose name I can't remember.

Subscribed.

Isn't it? When he gave me the leftovers, he actually gave them to me with the components all separated out - one bowl with the broth, one with filling, some raw horseradish to grate, and some bread. Then I combined and heated everything on my stove. I used the entire root.

Here's some of the selection at Martin Rosol's. They have regular American-type stuff but you can see their signature kielbasa at the far right on the top shelf. There are some other Polish meats on the bottom.

Here's some stuffed cabbage that he brought to an office potluck. I forget what the Polish name for these are.

Rye bread made by the guy's aunt. I'd never had a rye like this before - it had the density and texture of, say, banana bread. Incredible stuff.

Bigos, a traditional stew that was brought to another potluck.

The rye from Podlasie. Better-suited to sandwiches than the other rye.

Stuffed peppers he had at home one night (his pic not mine).

Homemade pierogi from yet another potluck. His mom's getting along in years, though, and it's very labor-intensive to make all this. Probably won't be seeing it in the future.

One of the Polish restaurants that I've been instructed to hit up.

Safe thread OP

>kopytka and leniwe are the same thing
You fucking what mate.
In my household, hooves don't use any quark, and are served as side, or reheat them later on flying pan with bacon and onions.
Lazy dumplings on the other hand use more quark and no potato flour, to bring up the sweetness. Those you eat with sugar and mix of melted butter and breadcrumbs.

I need to know what that sauce is it looks heavenly.

Some kind of tomato-cream thing, I'll ask him on Monday.

There were three pierogi trays like this at our last potluck. He took an entire day working with his mom to make them all. Some were filled with sauerkraut, others potato and cheese,.

you're coupon is expired

Martin Rosol's easter kielbasa. It uses a leaner blend and has a different spice mix than their usual smoked kielbasa.

Thanks but it's just a random image I found on google.

Fuck you. These are all my pics. Unless the 'random image I found on google' is just another stupid meme.

Here are some stuffed peppers that he brought to a different potluck. Sorry that this is a bit gross-looking but I didn't get to take a pic until after some folks had already been at them.

>I lie on the internet.
Faggot.

Man, I hate working with nothing but Trinidadian people. their food fucking sucks.

Connecticut shit posting is the best shit posting.

... I'm the guy that posts on the Roadfood board, dude. I also post on Yelp.

BTFO!

ANYWAY, here's their regular smoked kielbasa for comparison - you can see the different color. This much will run you about $14.

Gonna need some proof.

Not really sure how to prove that, but I don't really care if you believe me or not. I just wanted to share some of the Polish food I've had since coming here. It's been a fun education.

Every now and then, we'll bring some kielbasa into the office along with rye and a mustard that I brought over from the Midwest (Boetje's), and then we have a little food-orgy.

fuck me that looks good. stuffed with what?

Mixture of ground pork, rice, and spices, as I recall. Might have been some onion in there too.

My folks used to tell a racist joke about Polish food. It was: "You know how Polish people eat?" Then they'd mime moving food to their mouth with their hands.

I didn't really get it then. As Americans we have plenty of our own finger food. After seeing the pics in this thread, I still don't get it.

Bruh, kluski all day over here, if I remember tonight I'll translate my great grandmas recipe book.

The round ones too, with some gravy holy shit.

Gołąbki

>when the tomato sauce is just right.

What do my Polish friends think of this video? Spot on? Missing some good sweets?
youtu.be/ek2LiUmGwtU

I don't like this guy just based on his personality and that he would try to talk shit about Krowki.

>quark

?

How hard is it to Google a word?

>trashing prazynki
>trashing halva
>trashing raczki
>wearing a hat indoors

gamermeme man should stick to video games/10

Then again I didn't watch his other videos and I guess he moans as much.

How hard is it to explain what it is to someone who's never heard of it?

How similar is it to ricotta? Could I substitute it for quark if I can't find any?

Polish food is god tier for farting

How many eggs is in a metric yolk?

I would eat the fuck out of that. Give me all the sauerkraut. All of it.

At least three imperial yolks worth.

But no more than one half universal standard yolk.

Technically Poland is part of the EU, which is part of the ESA (European Space Agency) and there have been Polish astronauts. So Poland can into space afterall.

I live next to a polish store and bought quite a few kielbasas, cream cheese, smoked bacon that I slice up, dumplings and more.

I never had polish food but threads like this give me a decent idea on how to eat them. Are there any recommendations for me to try?

Haha 10/10

Make a simple broth, add kielbasa and dumplings and horseradish. You'll probably be eating what centuries of polish people have eaten.

OP pic. My family has romanian origins (Me and my brothers were already born in Israel through), my aunt makes this stuff and it's amazing.

Both.

desert if served with sugar and butter.

side if served with meat souce

You've posted this same shit before, several times.
Either you're really boring, or full of crap. Try eating something else once in awhile.

These sound delicious as a side with meat, something a bit different from rice or potato.

...

Any brands of mustard or horseradish in particular? Or mayo. There's so many brands.

he's not be cleary. it's called "pierogi ruskie" not "russian". From Russi hiere en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_Ruthenia.
>op fag
>pl here

Boetje's is mean as fuck, and contributes greatly to gustatory dankness.

Try cutting 2 parts ricotta to 1 part sour cream. If you're in the states, you can find quark at Trader Joe's or Whole Foods or any other such bourgie grocery-peddling establishment.

here u got quark
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quark_(dairy_product)

any1 still lurk?

youtube.com/watch?v=dJZd-Oge5_E

Yep!

Huh? We don't have a lot of finger food, I think.

It all depends on the region. I've met so many people trying to argue with me if they should be called hooves/lazy dumplings, with/without quark, that I just accepted the sad truth, that almost every region has their own recipe and name. Oh well! Just like the steamed buns have like 10 different names, depending on the region. Kluski na parze, paruchy, parowańce, parowce, bambuchy...yeah.

This is probably a sourdough bread, made on rye flour. One of my faves! Let me know if you want a recipe, but keep in mind that the sourdough starter takes a while to make. It's also the main ingredient of the soup mentioned here: This guy is right. Whoops. Sorry. In my defense, we do call the Russians "Ruski".


Well, I'm back with recipes! More potatoes! These are traditional highlander flat-cakes. They taste delicious dipped in any kind of meat sauce, ghoulash or garlic sauce.

You'll need:

1kg potatoes
250ml buttermilk
2 x 250ml cups of flour
1 flat tbsp of salt
40g hard, grated cheese like parmesan (that's not traditional, you can skip that, I just like the taste)

As usual, boil the potatoes in salted water untill soft, mash them while they're still hot, let them cool. Add the rest of the ingredients, work the dough - it shouldn't be too sticky, you should be able to roll a roll out of it. It should be quite thick. Sprinkle your hands and the surface you're working on with more flour. Use a sharp and clean knife to cut pieces that are about 2cm thick. Flatten them into the shape you see in the pictures (they were about the size of a palm). Bake them on a hot, dry (!) pan. The heat shouldn't be too high, you want them to get cooked through and not burnt on the outside, but they should be crispy.

average polish city

These look a lot like empanadas.

Nigga oh boy do I have a thing for you prepare your paleo anus cause here comes the fuckin rolady! They even look like something that comes from your anus, since all the polish food looks like crap, but they taste DELICIOUS and are SO FUCKING PALEO


This time I stole the picture from the internet, cause I didn't take a picture of mine.

you'll need:

1,5kg beef
4-5 dill pickles
good, spicy mustard
pepper, salt
bay leafs
all spice
onion
bacon, cut into thin strips


You'll need a huge piece of lean beef, good quality, not the shitty kind. Cut it into 1cm slices, the bigger they are, the better. Then use that weird cooking hammer thingy, mallet? To beat the shit out of the meat. It should be nice and thin. Then smear about a tablespoon of hot mustard on it. Put a 1/4 of a dill pickle on the meat, a long piece of bacon, a piece of an onion, sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roll the rolada! Use a long pin/needle to keep it whole, or a string to wrap it up so that it doesn't fall apart. Heat up your pan, melt some butter in the pan. Fry them a bit on every side, then pour some water into the pan. Add two bay leafs, three all spice seeds and cover that shit with a cover. Let them simmer for about 2 hours, untill the meat is tender and falling apart. Then thicken the sauce - traditionally it's done with normal flour, but you, paleo fagget, won't use that, so use potato starch. Or don't thicken the sauce and just suffer.

this.

>yissssmothafuckingbreadcrumbscausetherearepidgeonseverywhere

JESUS FUCK.

I'm a Japanese/Chinese/American mutt, but for some reason my Japanese mom knew how to make this dish. She grew up in Tokyo and I have no idea where she got this from, she always just called it "Rolled cabbage."

I don't know if it even remotely tastes like Goblaki, but I am gonna go try to make some now. Thanks mom, and thanks Poland (???) !

OP is Quasimodo with trumpet
lmao

there you got best smillar recipe
zagleft.com/recipe/golabki-cabbage-rolls-recipe/

nice effort op but lol it all looks like shit

There's very little difference between the meat filled dough variations of eastern europe. Pic related is pork/beef russian pelmeni I make often. I tried putting Dill in them this time, do not recommend.

I also make pierogies like yours OP, I just use different cheeses and butter in the filling. When I cook them, I like to brown them in a pan with butter after boiling.

These are good too, mmm. We make them this shape for Christmas and then put them in a beetroot soup, barszcz. They're called "little ears" - uszka.

Oh boy, wait till you see bigos, pic related.

Like I said, polish cuisine often looks horrible. But it's delicious.

Original polish street food.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zapiekanka

We came up with this godly shit in the 70's because we got banned from the western food server by a soviet admin.

More please

pierogi +40 health

>bread
>cheese
>mushrooms
>ketchup

This is like the laziest pizza I've ever seen. But I want to try it.

You should. Just avoid hip temporary spots, because they put shit like spinach and shitake shrooms and gluten-free stuff. Ask people where to get the old-school one - the basic, the legend.

I'm not flying to Poland for pizza bread, I'll just make my own.

OP here, this guys is completely right!

Nah, it's not really like pizza. Here's the recipe!

1 baguette
200g mushrooms
1 small onion
150g grated cheese
salt, pepper, ketchup
oil/butter

Where I live people also top it with chopped scallions.

Chop the onion finely, slice the mushrooms thin. Fry the onion on the pan, add the mushrooms, cover and simmer for a bit, untill the mushrooms are soft, about 15 minutes. Add salt and pepper to taste.

Cut the baguette in half, spread the mushrooms/onion on top of it. Sprinkle the cheese evenly and bake in the oven till it melts. Add ketchup and scallions if you want. Baguette should be crunchy.

That's the basic recipe, but people often put kielbasa on them, or dill pickles, or ham, or all other kinds of toppings.

Ffffuck, now I want one and it's like 3am.

Yeah, how the fuck am I supposed to get 250g of subatomic particles and put them into a pierogi?
