Thank you :) Pictures are coming soon. For now I have collected all family and friends receipes, so they are all in one place. Well- not all yet, but almost. I was spending way too much time on translating kg into lb or cups when I was cooking. Now it is all there :)
Sounds nice except I understand there is no such thing as graham cracker crumbs in Poland. Correct me if I'm wrong. Maybe by now some Food of the World type shop carries them. At any rate, they are not indigenous to Polish cookery.
I made barszcz last night, only I use a secret recipe. I can reveal that I used five species of umbellifer and water with a couple of ingredients I won't name, just to maintain secrecy (unless anyone asks nicely). It is really easy to cook, but I'm never entirely sure if there's something I'm missing. Nobody Polish has ever tasted my barszcz.
My mom used to make "kluski z miesem" Basically it was the meat from pierogi with potato wrapped around it. She would boil them and then pour the sauteed salt pork over them. Do you have a recipe? I need the filing recipe as well. Thank you, Annette
There is a book called Polish Cooking at selcar.pl. It contains many recipes, new and old, and I got it as a Xmas present for sb back home. The authoress is Marzenna Kasprzycka.

The wife made some last night with kasza? and no tomato sauce. Went well with the gravy. She said it was mostly a southern recipe, her mother would never make it that way....
Hmm, never tried that but I will. I had a taste for potato pancakes with goulash the other day, so I made it. Lots of work but I thought I bite my tongue off chowing it down; it was so good! :)
Hi! I'm looking for a recipe for a Polish cheesecake that has chocolate cake mixed in. It looks marbled. I found a photo of it on the web but that's as close as it comes. They make it at our local Polish Market but only once a year. Would you happen to have a recipe for this??? ~Thanks for your time~
I'm trying to find a recipe for Polish coleslaw....we had it in Wroclaw on holiday. It was delicious! I think it had shredded cabbage, onion, carrot and celery seeds in it but it had a kind of vinegarette dressing with just a hint of mayo. Please help. I'm addicted to it! Thanks.
the thing is there may be countless variations of these recipe with differing dressings and ingredients - the other things is it's nothing traditional - why don't you just experiment with the ingredients - one recipe I have found goes like this: a quarter of a white cabbage, 2 apples, 1 onion, 1 carrot, some green parsley, mayo, sugar, salt, pepper - I'm pretty sure the ingredients were a bit different with the salad you had (including the dressing) - there may have been some vinegar in the dressing - I don't actually know what you mean by celery seeds - I have never heard of celery seeds as a herb/seasoning - were the seeds dry or green? - I guess dill must have been part of the dressing (it gives a nice aroma)
