3 the most typical Polish dinner food

1.       Pork chop (with fried cabagge)

2.       „Pierogi” = dumblings,

3.       Bigos.

 

Today I tell you about first one, a pork chop.

Pork chop, in Polish: „schabowy” – piece of pork meat (pork loin) typicalyy dipped in egg and breadcrumbs, and fried. Typically served with potatos, and a cabagge.

Typical polish meal have 3 components:

·         Piece of meat

·         a portion of potatoes or other  “carbonates”

·         portion of vegetable – fresh or cooked.

·          

About meat:

The most popular meat in Poland is pork and chicken. It is good country to try the pork if you are not familiar with. Good quality and we know how to cook it.

Rare but still popular: turkey, fish, or beef, or eggs

Very rare: other birds, or seafood.

 

About “carbonates”

The most popular “carbonates” are potatos or rice.

Popular: pasta, and nudles, and  groats (barley and buckwheat)

Groats are interesting to try, I did not see many countries which have this in menu. Poland is good country to try that. We have it, we grow it, we use it, we know how to cook it.

One of my favorite diner food is goulash (stew) with barley groats, typically server with acid (pickled) cucumber. Goulash in Poland means pork goulash. If it is different meat it will be mention, but classic version is pork. Poland is “pork country”.

 

About vegetables:

 

Salats:

Typical salat is made from cabbage or carots, quite popular are cucumbers ant tomatoes too.

Cabbage  can be fresh or sauerkraut. If it is fresh it is something similar to Coleslaw salad, typically in Poland server with oil instead of mayonnaise.

Sauerkraut cabbage is similar to kimchi. A lot of probiotic, very healthy, and my suggestion is to try small amount if you are not familiar witch kimchi or other probiotic food. It is tasty, and worth to try. Especially in Poland: we are specialist for “sour” cabage and cucumbers. Very popular food in Poland.

 

Coocked vagetables:

The moust popular:  carots, beat roots, or (sweat) cabbage. Very popular. Tasty. Save for travelers with delicate stomachs, because it is cooked food. Poland use vegetable, we are rural country. Good place to try it.

 

Poland is country with good, tasty food.

2nd of 3 the most popular Polish food: PIEROGI

„Pierogi” = dumblings. Qick glimpse: filling enclosed in a pocket of wheat dough. Cooked. Descripion: Shape and look: Polish dumblings are made of wheat dough that is rolled out thinly and then circles are cut out of it. The filling is placed in the center of the circle, then the circles are folded in half and the edges are sealed. This creates a very characteristic, semi-circular shape of the Polish pierogi.  Cooked or fried? Cooked. Polish dumblings are coocked. Even if this is fried version - it is cooked first, and then fried. Typically they are served cooked. Filings – the moust interesting thing: what is inside? Pierogi can be fulfileed with everything, there are many kinds of filings. It can be sweet or  salty.
