PIEROGI (POLISH DUMPLINGS)
This recipe has been a family favorite passed on from generation to generation. We traditionally make these for Christmas, but they can be made for any special event. There's some work involved, but the outcome is rewarding! After the perogies have boiled, they can be fried in some butter and onions or served with sour cream.

Steps:
- To prepare the sauerkraut filling, melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in the onion, and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the drained sauerkraut and cook for an additional 5 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper, then remove to a plate to cool.
- For the mashed potato filling, melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in the onion, and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir into the mashed potatoes, and season with salt and white pepper.
- To make the dough, beat together the eggs and sour cream until smooth. Sift together the flour, salt, and baking powder; stir into the sour cream mixture until dough comes together. Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface until firm and smooth. Divide the dough in half, then roll out one half to 1/8 inch thickness. Cut into 3 inch rounds using a biscuit cutter.
- Place a small spoonful of the mashed potato filling into the center of each round. Moisten the edges with water, fold over, and press together with a fork to seal. Repeat procedure with the remaining dough and the sauerkraut filling.
- Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add perogies and cook for 3 to 5 minutes or until pierogi float to the top. Remove with a slotted spoon.

POTATO PIEROGI
Pierogi were traditionally served as a meatless dish during Lent, but evolved into a popular side dish. Pierogi bob to the surface of the cooking water when they're done.

Steps:
- Make the dough: In a medium bowl, whisk egg. Add sour cream, and whisk until smooth. Add milk and 1 cup water, and whisk until combined. Slowly add about 3 cups flour, and stir with a wooden spoon to combine.
- Turn dough out onto a well-floured surface and work in about 1 cup flour as you knead. Use a plastic scraper to lift dough as it will stick to the counter before flour is worked in. Continue kneading for 8 to 10 minutes, working in another 1/2 cup flour. The dough should be elastic in texture and no longer sticky. Be careful not to add too much flour, as this will toughen dough. Place dough in a lightly floured bowl and cover with plastic wrap and let rest while you prepare filling.
- Make the filling: Place potatoes in a large pot, and cover with cold water. Add salt. Place over high heat, and bring to a boil. Cook until fork-tender. Drain and mash with a potato masher. Add 4 tablespoons melted butter and the cheeses, and continue to mash until well incorporated. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Place a large pot of salted water over high heat, and bring to a boil. Lay a clean linen towel on your counter, and evenly distribute cornmeal on it to prevent sticking.
- On a floured surface, roll out dough to about 1/8 inch thick. Using a glass or cookie cutter measuring 2 1/2 inches in diameter, cut out as many circles as possible. Gather dough scraps together, rolling them out again, and continue cutting.
- Form filling into 1 1/2-inch balls, and place a ball in the center of each dough circle. Holding a circle in your hand, fold dough over filling, and pinch the edges, forming a well-sealed crescent. Transfer to linen towel. Continue this process until all dough circles are filled.
- Place pierogi in boiling water in batches. They will sink to the bottom of the pot and then rise to the top. Once they rise, let them cook for about a minute more. Meanwhile, drizzle platter with remaining 8 tablespoons melted butter. Remove pierogi from pot, and transfer to platter to prevent sticking. Serve immediately.

Steps:
- Combine the flour, milk and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a food processor. Pulse until the dough forms into a ball.
- Roll out the dough on a floured board and cut into 2 1/2- by 2 1/2-inch squares. Drop about 2 teaspoons of mashed potato in the center of a dough square. Dip a finger in water, run it around the edge of the square, fold the potato inside and pinch the edges to seal. Repeat with the remaining dough and potato filling. Place the finished pierogies onto floured sheet pans.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil and drop the pierogies in. When they all float to the top, they are done, 3 to 4 minutes. Strain and place in a bowl.
- While the pierogies are cooking, in large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the onions and saute until medium brown, 6 to 8 minutes. Pour over the pierogies, gently toss and serve.

Steps:
- In a large mixing bowl mix the flour, cream cheese, egg, salt, and water. Turn onto a lightly floured surface and knead until the dough is soft and even.
- Place the cooked potatoes in another large mixing bowl and mash. Add sauteed onions, cream cheese, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until texture is solid and not runny.
- Roll dough approximately 1/8-inch thick. Cut into round shapes, approximately 3 1/2-inches in diameter. Add a small amount of potato filling to the center of a disk. Fold in half to form a half-moon shape. Seal and pinch ends tightly.
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Boil pierogis rapidly for 4 to 5 minutes. Drain and cool.
- Melt butter in a saute pan, add chopped onions, and cook until browned. Add the peirogis and saute until slightly crisp.

Steps:
- Potato and Cheese Filling: Cook the onion in butter until tender.
- Combine it with potatoes and cheese.
- Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Vary the proportions and ingredients in this recipe to suit your taste.
- Mix the flour with the salt in a deep bowl.
- Add the egg, oil and water to make a medium soft dough.
- Knead on a floured board until the dough is smooth.
- Caution: Too much kneading will toughen the dough.
- Divide the dough into 2 parts.
- Cover and let stand for at least 10 minutes.
- Prepare the filling.
- The filling should be thick enough to hold its shape.
- Roll the dough quite thin on a floured board.
- Cut rounds with a large biscuit cutter, or as most old-world grandmothers did, with the open end of a glass.
- Put the round in the palm of your hand.
- Place a spoonful of filling in it, fold over to form a half circle and press the edges together with the fingers.
- The edges should be free of filling.
- Be sure the edges are sealed well to prevent the filling from running out.
- Place the pierogi on a floured board or tea towel and then cover with another tea towel to prevent them from drying out.
- COOKING: Drop a few pierogies into a large quantity of rapidly boiling salted water.
- Do not attempt to cook too many at a time.
- Stir VERY gently with a wooden spoon to separate them and to prevent them from sticking to the bottom of the pot.
- Continue boiling for 3-4 minutes.
- The cooling period will depend upon the size you made it, the thickness of the dough and the filling.
- Pierogies will be ready when they are puffed.
- Remove them with a perforated spoon or skimmer to a colander and drain thoroughly.
- Place in a deep dish, sprinkle generously with melted butter to prevent them from sticking.
- Cover and keep them hot until all are cooked.
- Serve in a large dish without piling or crowding them.
- Top with melted butter- chopped crisp bacon and/or chopped onions lightly browned in butter.
- REHEATING: One of the great things about perogies, is that they can be made in large quantities, refrigerated, frozen and reheated without loss of quality.
- Many prefer reheated perogies as compared to freshly boiled ones.
- To re-heat, you can: 1) pan fry pierogies in butter or bacon fat until they are light in color or, 2) heat the pierogies in the top of a double boiler or in the oven until they are hot and plump or, 3) deep fry them.
BAYOU TECHE POTATO PIROGUES
Beef stew served in potato skin "boats." Adapted from Paul Prudhomme's Louisiana Tastes. Don't let the long list of ingredients and instructions scare you; these are easy. I prefer to bake the pirogues, but I've also included the instructions for deep-frying. You can serve any stew or chili this way.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Combine seasoning mix ingredients and set aside.
- Prick each potato with a fork.
- Bake potatoes for 45 minutes.
- Let cool until they can be handled.
- Cut in half lengthwise and scoop out pulp, leaving about 1/4" in skins.
- Dice potato pulp and set aside. There should be about 3 cups.
- Combine 2 tablespoons oil with 2 tablespoons seasoning mix, and mix well.
- Brush the inside of the potato skins with the seasoned oil.
- Place on a baking sheet and return to oven.
- Bake for 20 minutes.
- Turn over and bake for an additional 20 minutes.
- While potato skins are cooking, make the stew.
- Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of seasoning mix over the meat and rub it in well.
- Heat remaining oil in a 5-quart pot over high heat, just until it begins to smoke, 3-4 minutes.
- Add meat and spread evenly over the bottom of the pot.
- Cook for 2 minutes without stirring.
- Turn meat and cook just until it loses its red color, about 2 minutes more.
- Remove meat and set aside, pressing it against the pan as you take it out to release some of the juices.
- To the same pot, add 1 cup onion, 1 1/2 cups celery, 3 tablespoons poblano peppers, 3 tablespoon Anaheim peppers, and 2 tablespoons seasoning mix.
- If any juices accumulate from the meat, add them, too.
- Mix well and cook, stirring and scraping the pot frequently, until the vegetables are dark brown and the bottom of the pot is covered with dark brown particles, 5-7 minutes--but watch the pot, not the clock. Don't let them scorch.
- Add 1 cup of reserved potato pulp and mash down.
- Scrape bottom of pot until anything that sticks is loosened. It will come up in layers; turn the pot to make sure everything is scraped up or it will burn.
- Continue stirring until well-combined and potatoes are sticking heavily, adding 1/2 cup stock if necessary to prevent scorching, about 6-8 minutes.
- Add 1 1/2 cups stock and scrape the bottom of the pan until everything that's sticking is dissolved.
- Add 1 1/2 cups potato pulp, the remaining stock, the reserved meat and remaining seasoning mix.
- Cover and bring to a boil.
- Uncover, reduce heat to medium, and simmer 10 minutes.
- Add remaining onions, celery, and peppers, and all the mushrooms and carrots, and simmer until meat is tender, 10-15 minutes.
- Whisk in remaining potato pulp and remove from heat.
- Fill each potato skin with 1 1/4 cups of stew, letting some of it slop over onto the plate, and serve immediately.
- Variation: You can also deep-fry the potato skins. If frying, eliminate the 2 tablespoons olive oil. Place vegetable oil in a deep fryer to a depth of 4". Heat oil to 350°F.
- Carefully lower the skins into the hot oil and fry 4-5 minutes, until rich brown, pushing down with tongs if they float.
- Remove with tongs, drain, and sprinkle with the 2 1/2 teaspoons of the seasoning mix.

Steps:
- To make the dough, combine the flour and salt in a large mixing bowl.
- Make a well in the center and add the water and egg yolks. With a wooden spoon, stir constantly until the dough holds together, adding a little more water if necessary.
- Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead it for 2 minutes. Put the dough back in the bowl, cover it with plastic wrap, and set it aside.
- For the filling, boil the potatoes in a large saucepan of salted water for about 10 minutes or until the potatoes are soft.
- Drain the potatoes, then mash them by hand.
- Meanwhile, melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a small skillet. Add the onion and sauté for 5 minutes, stirring often.
- Add the onion, cheese, and salt to the potatoes and mash them inches.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
- Meanwhile, break the dough into quarters. Roll one out thin on a floured surface.
- Using a biscuit cutter or a water glass, cut the dough into 3 to 3 1/2-inch circles. Roll out and cut the scraps. Repeat with the other 3 quarters until all the dough is used.
- Put a heaping teaspoon of filling in the center of each circle.
- Moisten the edge of the circle with a wet fingertip, then fold it in half and press the edges together firmly to seal.
- Drop the pierogi, 8 to 10 at a time, into the boiling water. Simmer until the pierogi rise to the surface, then continue to simmer for 4 to 5 minutes more.
- Next, melt a little butter in a large skillet. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the pierogi from the water into the skillet. Cook them in the butter over medium high heat for several minutes, until lightly browned on both sides.
- Serve hot and garnish with a little extra cheese, if you like.
