Food / Taste of food in Poland vs other countries [188]

Certain youtuber tested a few dishes in a popular restaurant on top of the Tatra Mountains.

Some of his comments are interesting and plausible and might give you a general impression of what taste Poles/Polesses expect in their cuisine :

Tomato soup
Then he came up with a controversial theory about tomato soup , and specifically what it should be served with.
I know I'm making a stir , because many people in Poland eat tomato soup with rice. This is downright terrifying
" For tomato soup only pasta, 'shells' or 'bows' . This is the perfect tomato soup for me," he explained.
How did he like the tomato soup?
The soup is cold , it's lukewarm, so if you come here cold, you won't warm yourself with this soup. It's served with cream, there's plenty of sourness and sweetness. It's not bad, but its temperature doesn't allow me to feel its full flavor. I 'd give it 6 out of 10. Totally plain, but satisfying. You eat it and that's it. There's no grimace, " he said.

Żurek
Then the influencer started eating żurek . The ingredients were potatoes and sausage. He liked the soup, although there were some comments.
The sour rye soup is super thick . (...) It is very sour, but also balanced , there is no strange aftertaste. However, you will find the taste of smoked meat here. I would just add a few more potatoes and add an egg. This is a sour soup that will be liked by 90 percent of the people visiting this restaurant. Correct sour soup ," he summed up, adding that he received "old bread.

Meat patty with potatoes and bigos

The biggest problem turned out to be the spices added to the dish. The cooks did not skimp on salt and pepper.
Very salty patty, oh Jesus! You have to eat it with a potato because it's too strong. I have the impression that someone got carried away with this salt

" There's also a lot of pepper . I don't complain about the pepper. I'll tell you, it's strong, " he added. However, the YouTuber positively assessed the consistency of the patty itself. " It's not loose, it's compact and you can feel, above all, that you're eating meat . I think it's a very good minced patty. Only the salt... Someone has spilled it here. It's really very tasty . The salt hits you, you feel thirsty after eating half. It's a pity," we hear from a man who adds:

Warsaw team`s radical fans were punished by Euro soccer federation with a ban - they weren`t allowed to occupy their infamous sector called Razor. Check the first banner they displayed in the empty sector and the other one they had hidden in the regular fan sector. Funny.

Food / Bees - honey in Poland [13]

I am reading an article about the problems of Polish honey producers who have to struggle with the cheap import from Ukraine and China.

onet.pl/informacje/onetbialystok/tani-i-zafalszowany-miod-ze-wschodu-zalewa-polski-rynek-ministerstwo-zaprzecza/vldm9j2,79cfc278

Crucial info which you might find useful how to check honey`s quality:
:
"Suspicious" honey
There is also another provision on jar labels: honey crystallization is a natural process. Surprisingly, these labels are largely applied to liquid honey, which immediately excludes its "naturalness".

- Honey cannot be liquid if it is natural and genuine. Rapeseed honey crystallizes within five days. Acacia honey lasts the longest. All mature honey should crystallize within four months, explains beekeeper Mikołaj. Other apiary owners also note that we end up buying cheap liquid honey, devoid of nutritional value, which is syrup, i.e. honey adulterated with sugars, and not a quality product from bees.

On our kitchen table there are two big jars of honey we bought last summer holiday - both half empty. One is from a local producer who lives in a village next door to us and the other is from a shopping centre. This local one got crystalised quickly and nobody wants to eat it apart from me. The other one is still fully liquid although the label says it comes from a natural Polish producer.

People need to be educated about honey.

It was clear from the beginning that the so-called ideological issues will be a bone of contention in the new gov created by the coalition of 4 parties. The reason for first tensions is abortion. Tusk`s party and the Left opt for full 12 week abortion while conservatives are reluctant and opt for a referendum etc.

Despite campaign promises, the fight for abortion rights seems far from over.
