/ck/ - Food & Cooking

I moved to central CT a few years ago, and consider myself very fortunate to be close to the very Polish city of New Britain. I go to Martin Rosol's there all the time for their smoked kielbasa, and in the spring, they have a Little Poland festival where you can get all kinds of fresh-cooked Polish yummies.

A coworker of mine lives there, and I've had the chance to sample some of the Polish comfort food that his mom and aunt have made, including a sour-rye soup called zurek (their version contains chopped kielbasa, ham, bacon, farmer cheese, and boiled eggs in a rye broth with grated horseradish).

And on Friday mornings, the best rye bread I've ever had gets delivered to the Podlasie store. I sometimes see old folks hanging around waiting for it.
