Around the World in Comfort Food

Pierogi – Poland
Pierogi are just one type of dumpling, a comfort food that’s ubiquitous all the world over. Found primarily in Eastern Europe – particularly Poland – pierogi are tiny pockets of filling surrounded by a stretchy dough. They are first boiled, then fried in butter or oil.
A typical batch of pierogi may be filled with anything from potato, sauerkraut, and cheese to sour cherry jam. They’re typically served topped with a sprinkle of chopped bacon, sautéed onions, or sour cream.
