Food / Bigos Recipe [183]

I live just mins away from most of my family. I have aunts uncles and grandparts near by. We always have a reason to meet up for parties. But the truth is even though we all came from the same bloodline, we all have our own style in cooking our dishes. I have grown to love only my moms and grandmas cooking. They really clean up all the meats of fats and weird stuff. But my aunts cook for thei husbans and they cook it the more "primative" way. They do it the old school style. So there are many ways to cook your dishes. But some of the ideas have been americanized. The reason is because lack of ingredients avail to us here in the states. I have always been firm on the idea of not using stuff out of a package. But when i was in Poland this summer i was shocked to hear people are starting to just buy dinner in a box. Us cooks are a lost generation. So i will do my best to help keep us informed of old style Polish cooking that i enjoy daily! Your the best MAMA!!!
