Food / Looking for a Pickle Soup Recipe - Polish ogórkowa [28]
Dill Pickle Soup: (Zupa Ogorkowa)
6 cups of beef broth
1 lb cauliflower (cut into small flowerettes)
2T of instant flour
1C milk
1 egg yolks
2T soft butter
4 large Dill Pickles
2/3C liquid from the jar
2.5C boiled and sliced potatoes
Bring broth to boil.
+ flour mixed with .5C of milk
bring just to boil. remove from heat.
+ egg yolks mixed w/ butter
+ pickles, potaotes and liguid
heat but DO NOT BOIL
serves 12 although if you eat it like a polish person then i say it serves 4. lol
i also tend to add some dill to this (1t-1T depending on how much you like dill)
here is a very similar soup and it can also be served cold so it's also great for summer:
Cauliflower Soup:
7 cups of broth (chicken or beef, veggie stock will work also)
1 lb cauliflower (cut into small flowerettes)
1.5T of instant flour
2C milk
2 egg yolks
1T of DILL
Bring broth to boil.
+ caulifliwer, simmer for 25min.
+ flour mixed with .5C of milk
bring just to boil. remove from heat.
+ egg yolks and the rest of milk
+ DILL
stir and serve
this serves 10 according to my book but once again, i'll have to say 4.

Language / "Poles" or "Polish people" - which is better to use? [200]
beacause they are actually netherlanders.
that also = pollack and there are a few other veriosn too. btw. pollock is also kind of a fish.
try google.
If people from Poland are called "Poles," why aren't people from Holland called "Holes"?
beacause they are actually netherlanders.
“Pollock”
that also = pollack and there are a few other veriosn too. btw. pollock is also kind of a fish.
Show me an english dictionary that states that then !!

Food / What exactly is Polish Bread? [67]
recipes 2 and 3 are some of the closest i have seen to describe the polish bread. i don't think you can make it in a bread machine though... partially because of the hot water and/or the egg white.. which is sometimes brushed on after the second water sprinkling.
from what i have also heard is that the oven needs to be of a certain type or construction.. what type i have no idea..
however, one of these days i am going to give it a go in my dutch oven. i'll let you know how it comes out, if it comes out. :D

there are many "black" breads.. hard to tell what the one you tasted was like. and this being in Mass., that bread might have been a MA-PL bread anyway.

Life / Do Polish People steal a lot? [330]
best responce in the whole thread. roflmao
i do think polish and people from other former soviet satllite countries steal more then your average american. it's a cultural thing.. i think it stems from the oppression and deprevation that the peeps have had to endure over the years. no not everyone but i can pick the bad carachters out pretty easy. sledz, sometime when we get together we can talk about it.. the ones that smile probably won't rob you. ;) :D
Now mark your 2x4s with Polonium.
