Food / How is this herring product typically served? [74]

I was talking about Christmas in Ireland which is celebrated totally differently to Poland.

And I was talking about how most Polish people ignore the Pagon tradition here in America like they do in Ireland.

This is the same source that you copied and pasted about mackerel and herring belonging to the Gadidae family.

They do and since you always ask for a source I copy and pasted my source but like always, only your sources are credible.
Quite humorous actually.

it's laughable how little you know.

Your diminishing & shaming insults show just how insecure you are about others that want to learn about Poland.
You want to be the sole authority and in total control here. Pffffft !
You refuse to acknowledge that Polish people live in other countries besides just Poland which you want to ignore because you are ignorant to how they live here in the U.S.A.

This forum is about Polish people and is not limited to Poland only.
Bottom line is that my Polish babcia made a herring sauce of salted herring, garlic, scallion, peppers, and sliced a dumpling in half and poured the sauce over them.

So it really doesn't matter what Poles do in Poland because I am talking about what my Polish babcia did here in the Great U.S.A.

Yet you insist on knowin how my Polish grandmother made me herring. lol
You, Hairy, just try to diminish every post I make in every thread because you can't stand the fact I tell you to go jump in the lake.

Get over yourself.

Keep to the topic please

Most good looking Lesbo's are bi.

You might be surprised what a bottle of good wine each and an eight ball can do to get them to cave for an evening.

Especially if you start out with fellatio.

doesn't sound very Polish meat on Xmas eve...

Shows you what you know about Pagon traditions, are you even Polish ?

Thanks Ms. Atch as this guy is like beating a dead horse.
He probably doesn't know that there are seven different kinds of herring with one of them being a sardine.

Here is an article that may straighten him out on the difference between Christmas ham, herring, mackerel and sardines. lol
Read it and educate yourself, Hairy.

@The Mod.
Why did you let maf take this Off - topic from herring to Christmas ham ?
You told me whoever takes it off - topic is the one who gets the warning and suspension.


And you still don't have a Polish grandmother.

Not anymore, she died a long time ago.
The difference between you and me is that you never had one ever. :-)

I've never been to a curry club.

The picture that I have of you sitting having dinner in one with your friends proves otherwise.

mackerel can be served hot, warm or cold.

My Polish grandmother served herring both hot and cold from the recipe's that she brought from Poland.
Did you know that Herring and mackerel are both types of fish that belong to the family Gadidae.
Herring are smaller and have a more slender body than mackerel, while mackerel are larger and have a more robust body.
Both are interchangeable in recipes.
As far as the rest of your British diminishing meltdown, we will ignore it because nobody cares that it is off - topic. :-)

I've eaten it many many times in Polish homes but not once has it ever been served hot.

Not even at your Curry Club with your fellow Brits ?

because you can make one quite small mackerel last for a few days! It's yummy eaten warm - you can spread it on bread, pop a fried egg on top and there's your dinner :)

Atch serves them warm in Poland.

Herring dishes in Poland are served cold.

Pawian serves them hot in Poland

And it's still not served over dumplings either.

My Polish babcia serves it that way and hot.

I must try it out.

I can post the recipe as it wouldn't be anymore off - topic that your post #54 is.

Mentioned long ago;

Yes, I see that, six posts back, (long ago) lol

we're talking about on this thread. Herring in Poland is sold preserved

And I am talking both fresh AND PERSERVED in salt.
Have you ever heard of salt fish ?

Poland are a long way from the sea and in pre-refrigeration days were even further.

Yes join and that is why they salted it because salted cod and herring don't have to be refrigerated.
You lost this debate "a long time ago" from your re directs to dumplins, vodka, sauces, Poland exclusively, not many recipes, '"vanishling rare", not many recipes in google (which is not true), I do it sometimes but not elsewhere.......need I go on with you redirects to continue to diminish the fact that herring is served hot over dumplins with is quite popular along with being served over rice hot too.

Not in Poland - not in Poland ever

I've eaten it many many times in Polish homes but not once has it ever been served hot.

The name of the tread is; "How is this herring product typically served".
I didn't see the word "Poland" in it.

and things are not served 'over' dumplings....

But they are maf, did you read my post #32 above which is very popular.
Here is another recipe for herring over dumpling (One of my favorites) as there are endless recipes for herring mixed with endless things to pour over dumplings as a sauce or gravy.

Law / Climate change/environmental businesses or NGOs in Poland [66]

Any ideas what the market is like for sustainability, carbon management or environmental management organizations in Poland?

It's One Big Hoax !
They are lying to us again to get rich like they did with the Covid Hoax.
We are being told that carbon emissions are the cause for climate change.
This is a hoax as there are more than enough trees alone to use up the excess of carbon that we produce.
This is not counting any other vegetation, just the trees in the world.
We need carbon in the atmosphere, or everything would die without it.
This hoax was created so the New World Order could impose a carbon tax on us peons to make the elites wealthier.
Has Poland fallen for this hoax like they did with the Covid Hoax ?

UK, Ireland / Poland will be wealthier than Britain by 2030 [45]

PiS hasn't actually done that much

Well Covid did slow things down for awhile for them.

largely depends on economic conditions that have not materialised.

Well we are in a world recession so that is to be expected.
Rome wasn't built in a day but Poland will be built better than any country in the E.U. in this decade by far.

almost all of them varieties of sledzik, a cold dish.

Almost is the key word and is limited to Europe.
Now I see you have added the word "Preserved" to your defense.

there aren't 'many recipes' as a google search shows

Oh lord joun, obviously you didn't Google "Herring over dumplings in Poland ?"
There are endless peppers, onions, and spices to add to prepare cooked herring.

Serving preserved herring hot is rare.

Being as popular as herring are in Poland one would have to question that.
In fact I do believe Pawian in that past posted one of his recipes of hot herring over dumplings.

So what?

So you are agreeing with my post by repeating it.

the current military expansion, though expensive, is likely to have positive economic benefits.

That's what I said, only you used different words
PiS has done a wonderful job in accomplishing this by making Poland Great Again.
By the end of the decade Poland will be wealthier than Britain.

any economic change over the next decade or so will be largely unrelated to the policies of the current parties in office.

It seems the current parties economic policies have excelled by working with NATO (the U.S.A.) which got Poland to the point that Poland will be the wealthier of the two countries at this rate by the end of the decade.

PiS is behind this driving force for Poland to make this continue to happen.

Serving preserved herring hot is rare.

There are many recipes to Google for hot herring over dumplings.
Not rare at all.

I do it sometimes however I've not seen it elsewhere.

Quite popular in the Eastern Caribbean countries actually.
I would be willing to bet they cook it in Poland too.
Just Google herring over dumplings in Poland

@joun

Poland is a key member of NATO, and the current military expansion, though expensive, is likely to have positive economic benefits.

I agree as I have already posted that.

Poland has used the Ukraine crisis to strengthen ties with the USA that can guarantee Polish sovereignty.

Who knows what will happen if new governments are elected.

The current government is the key to the wealth of Poland in the next decade.
Poland could become a real threat to NATO if a new government got elected and destroy everything for Poland's future.

because vodka goes best with cold food

Not necessarily as dumplings with a variety of sauces makes vodka a real crowd pleaser.
Quite popular actually.

As always Jon, you are the voice of reason.

How patronizing. (Milo blows kisses)

are now around retirement age and are returning home as they'd always planned.

Yes, that too.
That is a lot of knowledge and experience lost and returning to Poland whereas Britain will have to retrain their Muslim guests.

Herring in oil can also be good and is a nice accompaniment to vodka.

Peas and potato's are nice with vodka too. :-)
The best thing about herring is that herring is among the lowest-mercury fish.

History / Future of Kaliningrad Oblast - is it possible to annex by Poland or will it become an independent country? [137]

Russian regime members are furious that Poles have just restored the old Polish name of Kaliningrad -

Have they restored it or has the Polish government 'advised' using it ?
The Polish committee said the city and wider area should instead be called Królewiec.
The decision no longer to use an "imposed name" was partly a result of Russia invading Ukraine.
QUOTE:
Russia said the decision was "bordering on madness" and "a hostile act".
