Only thing I changed was the final step...cooking them with butter and sauteed onions. Over the top! I took them to cooking club and they were gone within minutes.

The dough recipe is as good if not better than Grandmother's recipe.After trying many dough recipes this is the winner.The filling,well it did not sound even close to any traditional polish recipes and fillings I have tried.

These took a long time to make and i had trouble when I boiled them- make sure you pinch them so they are sealed. They were pretty good though.

I made these pierogies for my family the other night and everyone loved them! They did take a long time to make (almost two hours), but the end result was definitely worth it. I would remind anyone using this recipe that it is a sour cream dough, and is very very sticky, so you're going to use lots of flour when dealing with it. Overall, they were amazing!

My family LOVES this recipe. I also make a mashed potato filling with the green onions and cheese. Basically just substitute potato for the meat.




Delicious!

The pierogies took a little time to make, but were really delicious. My husband ate them all in one night.

Easter is a great time for all Polish food including pierogies. Although this was my fourth time that I had made this great dish, I wasn/t careful and the dough was too sticky and therefore stuck yo the resting surface. All 100 pierogies had to be redone.




good

This was my first attempt at making something like this homemade. It actually turned into a family event. They taste great with the farmers cheese, ground beef, and green onions. Again, this was a nice family time activity.




Great recipe for dough

I loved this recipe for dough. However, because I don't think meat pierogies are very traditional I made my own variations, which included potato and onion, and mushroom and sauerkraut, both were delicious.

Polish Xmas Eve

Pierogis are a xmas tradition in my family. After misplacing my grandmother's recipe, we were definitely not dissappointed with Emeril's version. I replaced the meat filling with yukon gold potatoes & farmer's cheese (Polish Xmas Eve is Meatless) and everyone preferred this filling over the traditional due to the addition of the green onions, etc.
