Yesterday was quite the culinary adventure. We tried some of the best pierogies in town at Zapiecek Polskie Pierogarmie (Ulica Slawkowska 32). Both the meat and the sour cabbage and mushroom pierogies were tasty. They had a nice firm outer pocket with a savory mash of peppery ground beef inside. The warm sour cabbage filling was equally delicious with seasonal wild mushrooms that you could only imagine had simmered over low heat with onions and prunes.
But, I must uphold the opinion of my family drawn from its strong culinary tradition as well as the satisfaction on our faces and our blue tongues, that nothing compares to the wild blueberry pierogies that my grandmother made for us. The berry inside was fresh and summery, sweetened mindfully to complement the tart wild berry flavor.
