Polish Perogi

The topic of this blogg is going to be the eastern european cuisine with special reagard of the polish cuisine. The recipe of Perogi, I goinig to write about, is one of the common dishes in poland together with Golabki (Stuffed Cabbage), Chłopski Posiłek (Peasants' Bacon and Cabbage), BIGOS (Hunter's Stew), Savoury Sausage and Sauerkraut, and Polish Wild Mushroom Soup (recipes and info here). The history of the perogi is not totally clear yet, but the origin of the perogi came probbably from the oriont across cntral Asia to Europe (more).

 The recipe itsself is acctually pritty easy. The first step is just to mix the ingreadients for the dough and to cook the potatos. It's only important, that your dough is not too sticky, otherwise it would be difficuilt to form the perogis. when the potatos are ready then mash them and add some cheese and flavor the mixture with salt and pepper. For the forming of the perogis, there is a little trick,to make them look nicer and to make sure they keep their filling: After you cut out a little circle and please some of the mash potatos in the middle (not too much, otherwise you'll get potatosoup later) and fold it to an semicircle (make the edge of one inside of the semicircle a little bit wet, so that it better stick together) you can use a fork to get the typicall perogi structur.
When yor donne with allthese, you just have to put the perogis in boiling water and put them out when they are swimming. and ready are your porogis.
