americans already have greasy cheesy potato things to eat, why would they eat a perogie when they could eat a burger and fries?
also, perogies are popular in parts of the US with lots of eastern european or dutch heritage, they're very common in PA

it's not actually good

>>11389634
kind of is tho

>>11389628
This is the right answer. Pierogies as dad as the eye can see in Pittsburgh, especially during lent

>>11389654
*far as the eye can see* FUCK

>>11389600
Many Jewish delis in the good ol' America serve some Eastern European dishes.

>>11389600
love pierogi i do
bigos is the GOAT winter stew

>>11389628
More to Polish/Slavic food than pierogi.

Goulash, stroganoff, borscht.

>>11389658
It's ok bud

>>11389600
Are those empanadas? Why is there some white sauce on them?

>>11389600
it is in western canada

It's poor people food and you cannot have 9:1 meat:carbs ratio so it won't do as far as Americans are concerned.

i remember i used to buy that exact brand here in toronto all the time

there even a vegan friendly version with no cheese, it was caleld ukranian style or something. fucking DELICIOUS. too bad im a garbage cook and just boil them like a crosseyed mouthbreather

still tasty af

>>11389600
Because its mostly bland and tends to lack spices. 90% of it is potato + cream + meat. It's good for the midwest but it's nothing to write home about

>>11389600
too hearty and heavy

Pennsylvania is the only based state in the US.

Eastern European food is popular among American Jews.

>>11389628
Half my family is from Penn so that explains why I grew up with Pierogi. Of course now I live in Vegas and there's only one polish place in town to get the good ones and kielbasa.

>>11389979
Literally disgusting. Go to a starsky or yummy market and get real pierogi or pelmeni

>>11389628
Ohiofag here, had them too. French family was adopted by Ukraine family and then promptly moved to US, grew up slavic as fuck.

There's a hungarian restaurant near me. Fucking delicious god damn food.

>polish food is bland
kys

A lot of Russian traditions I could see being syncretic with American culture, in another reality, where Imperial Russia and the United States were closer in brotherhood through the 20th century.
One of these is the Samovar tea tradition, which is fun, comfy and definitely Hygge.
Another would be the bread and salt giving ceremonies found in slavic nations, which is typical for housewarming, but also was given to cosmonauts upon their successful return to Earth.
Russian culture and cuisine, when viewed without political lens, is oddly comforting and understandable to the average white American. Both nations have legitimately positive intentions and good spirits. If only some (((international globalists))) didn't foster division and mistrust between our wonderful societies.

>>11389600
I think it'll probably be popular soon. Seems like it's the last place that never got popular in USA but a lot of the food is very delicious. Not too many Eastern European restaurants where I live though, I think there's one like 30 minutes away and that's about it for the whole state.

>>11391541
>Russian culture and cuisine, when viewed without political lens, is oddly comforting and understandable to the average white American.
This is true. A lot of Russian food isn't too different from what Americans traditionally ate.

>>11390860

Finally someone took the paprikapill.

Some of the comfiest foods you could possibly eat, pretty cheap and easy to make too. Fozelek especially, I had no idea you could make something so tasty out of peas, milk and flour.

>>11389600
A good cabbage roll is some of the best comfort foods to be honest.

I'm from Winnipeg, and it has a massive Ukrainian population there. My mother learned to make all the eastern European foods even tho she's Italian, but when you mix the two in fusion like my mother did it made some good results. I didn't realize it until I grew a bit older and realized what my mother was doing. Like using potato dough for perogies, and stuffing them with ricotta cheese and frying them. Or her sunday gravy for cabbage rolls.

>>11389600
Those are a fucking bitch to make. Have to stand and mold them in to shape for eternity. But they taste amazing yes

>>11389600
it isnt good though, its bland as fuck

>>11391829
>dough stuffed with potatoes, chedder cheese, and some other shit
>topped with all sorts of anything you want.
How would that be bland?
Sounds pretty satisfying to me.

>pasties are Eastern European
Once again, people stealing British food and claiming it as their own.

Austin Bruce

>>11391829
Melt some diced bacon to go with them and sprinkle the pierogi with pic related.

>>11391849
Your national dish, and drink of choice was literally stolen from another nation.
Also pasties are just lazy man mean pies, and aren't boiled, or fried, they're baked. And filled with meat, not potato filling.

>>11389997
>It's poor people food and you cannot have 9:1 meat:carbs ratio so it won't do as far as Americans are concerned.
This. It violates the serving starch with starch rule most Americans eschew as bad nutritional pairing, no-no on the double starch.

That said, it is a popular ethnic restaurant, deli and absolutely popular frozen food at every single grocery in the USA. It pairs well with keilbasa, which again is not the utmost popular kind of main protein due to the cured nature and fatty nature of it all. It's poor people food, or occasional comfy food, depending how you look at it all. It's pan fried, then served with more fat, such as sour cream. So yea, not a health food kick kind of meal. People order crappy unhealthy food when out, because they're not frying at home, treating themselves, but often at home, they are doing more lean things.
The only reason it'd be in my own rotation at home would be because it's awesome pantry food. Frozen sausages, pierogies, long shelf live onions and sour cream. Good quick instant dinner that lasts and lasts until I'm ready to make it some night I'm not going out and it's been a while since the last grocery run.

>>11391902

This is refugee camp rations, not restaurant food

>>11391858
"National dish" is political. It means literally nothing. What is it supposed to be this time, some paki shit and cheap fizzy wine?

>>11391946
No shit. It's home comfort food.

>>11391991
Yea but you brits gobble up curry more than anything else. Your first all you can eat restaurants were curry based.
Queen Vic even had a side man to make her curry and be her sex slave.

>>11391992
>Comfort food

>>11392000
Literally false. There are plenty of foods more widely consumed by real Brits. The millions of Pakis in the country who stink like shit because of their cooking are inflating the numbers because that's all they eat. It's the exact same principle that leads to Mohammed being the most common name in Britain.

>thread turns into british butthurt about not having a national cuisine

We have a huge slav population where I am from. I 3rd gen slav myself. But our city has like 2 slavic restos

Problem is that everyone of slave heritage things whatever variation of slav food they grew up with is the correct recipe. If it doesn't taste like Babushka made it then it's shit and it's wrong and fuck that. So no one can get their foot in the door on that food genre.

Additionally it's all pretty Labour intensive. Everything is folded or wrapped by hand. The sour cabbage rolls my senpai makes are only about 2/3rds an inch diameter by 2 inches long. Imagine filling a casserole dish with that. Takes forever.

>>11391541
Fuck I want a samovar so fucking bad. Tough to justify a $300-$500 purchase for something you might use twice a year

Imagine being this much of a fucking retard

>>11392083
Still comfort food... what's your point?

How to make Eastern European food. You will need:

Dill
Sour cream
Dill
Potatoes
Dill
Any sort of cabbage
Dill
Sour Cream

Assemble the Dill, Sour Cream, Potato, Cabbage & Dill any fucking way. It's all the same anyway.

>>11389600
I just got some pierogies OP

>>11392101
That doesn't make it good or worth paying someone to prepare you fucking inbred. Read >>11392104
There's literally no craft or actual flavor in Eastern European food. Your entire palette is based on shit commies would have to slap together from the trashcans of the rich

People eat mad pierogies in the states though, but the majority of them most likely don't take the time and effort to fry them up.

>>11389600
>everyone sleeps on it.
What kind of nogspeak is this?

>>11392127
Dude that one is old. It wasn't used in the right context here either, it means "to spend the night thinking about an important decision" not "doesn't like x thing"

>>11392112
Ever heard of fusion cooking?
And this thread is about why Eastern european food isn't more popular, not why they aren't sold more in restaurants.

It' still comfort food.
By your logic a hunk of beef can have no craft you can just throw it on a fire and away you go. Would you pay for someone to char your meat?

>>11392130
Is this bait? "Everyone sleeps on it" means no one is recognizing somethings quality or writing it off before they try it.
Have you honestly never heard this?

>>11391991
>cheap fizzy wine
He probably meant tea.

I'm personally addicted to Dolma and regularly eat a few pounds of it a week.

I'm not saying you can only make good food with expensive or exotic ingredients. I'm saying you can't make good food with a half kilo of fucking Dill and Sour Cream.

>I put potatoes inside bread and topped it with the most boring of cheeses. How could that be bland?

>>11389600
I like borscht and cabbage rolls. Very comfy food. Russians and Ukrainians make the best bread too.

>>11389600
It's popular here, it's just usually (incorrectly) associated with the middle east, or even no region at all.

i am eastern european but never had pierogi. Don't even know what it is. Is this a russian thing?

Best pierogies I ever had was when my polish grandparents made them. I have never had pierogies that good ever again. Wish I could have somehow learned how to make them back then, but I was only like 8 or 9 years old.

>>11395452
so it's a polish thing. Interesting, my country is right next to poland, but they never came here. But other polish dishes like stuffed cabbage are popular here.

I tend to cook a lot of eastern european stuff because of a few reasons
>Cheap: More money for beer and video games.
>Lasts fucking forever
>Heavy. Lots of meats and starches and vegetables, don't get hungry

It's not the most flavorful of foods sure. But I like buying a week's worth of food for the price of a burger at mcdonalds

my bosnian mother in law makes hella good food but it's poor people as fuck. Assuming OP is talking about in an american sense I'd say that it's not exciting and there aren't a whole bunch of immigrants like there are/were irish, italian, german. I'm an italian/irish myself and grew up with a fair amount of italian food but I've had perogies too, I was a bit older and had it in a german context.

so I guess in short (and in a US sense) it's about how widespread the people and culture is. If you're looking for anything more than that I'd say that it's not super exciting or innovative but that's where it's more opinion and less solidly quantifiable.

>>11392075
Too bad you don't have a kind old babushka to inherit one from that's been in the family for generations

>>11392131
No, I wouldn't. I refuse to go to steakhouses when I can just cook a perfect steak at home

>>11389600
Firstly Eastern European cuisine is objectively not that good aside from a few choice items like pierogi. Because it lacks the cross-cultural appeal of, say, Japanese or Italian food, it will remain something most westerners envision as foreign, mongoloid peasants, perhaps resembling serfs, hobbled around a fire preparing cabbage and potato stew for the sixth day in a row, you understand me?

>>11389600
Eastern Europeans use excessive starch and cheeses to cover up the taste of rotting meat

The only places that got a mass influx of eastern europeans was eastern Pennsylvania and some of Chicago.

Why don't you guys like borscht?

>>11394353
thank u for kotposting. this bread needs more kots. who has best kot?

>>11396254
Borscht is the truth

>>11396254
Borscht is amazing
its like the only food that ages like wine and tastes better the day after cooking it instead of fresh

I liked the food in Hungary and Czech Republic. I lived in London but I never had the chance to try Polish restaurants. I really would like to eat more Eastern Euro food. I live in Portugal now, and it's impossible for me to find anything like that. I have a Belarusian coworker, but his mom doesn't cook, so he never learned how to cook anything from his "homeland" (he was actually born here).

>>11396254
literally the only good eastern european dish

as a Pole, I can say we have a few good dishes, but mostly shine in bread and cakes
our food is great for the winter though, very filling and warming
some of my favourites are:
>bigos (sauerkraut stew with meat or mushrooms)
>żurek (soured rye soup)
>barszcz (polish version of borscht, clear and served with meat / mushroom filled dumplings)
>pierogi (everyone likes these, since they can be filled with anything from wild game to fruit)

>>11396392
Plenty of food does that.

>>11396254
I've only ever had borsch once, some of the guys cooked it in a pot over the campfire at a /k/ meet i went to
it was pretty good

>>11389600
because the food is bland due to not having access to spices until the dutch east india company came about

>>11392104
pretty sure that dill and sour cream on every Polish food is an American thing
>>11396571
we do use a lot of herbs though

>>11389658
Really? I liked the first way better.

The only good white people food. Flyovers just can't understand the subtleties of eastern European food

>>11389654
We have pierogies in our freezer section at the supermarket. Southern US.

the simple answer is because western european food is superior.

They are just retard westerners who have no understanding of culture. Pierogi is an ugly translation for small curved buns with ham in them. What they are posting are pelmeni (dumplings), except they have ditched the usual form and adopted a form like pirogi have

>>11397188
What is this? I'm Polak but first time see.

>>11389600
I don't know it should be more popular. I'm making Piroshki's later today though. I'll post pics in this thread if it's up by then.

>>11397140
kabanos is a type of kiełbasa which is kinda cheating, paprykarz isn't really a dish on it's own

I guess zapiekanka is a dish and tasty at that, more of a street food than something you'd make at home though

>>11397401
you can fill these with anything you want, mushrooms, quark, meat and fruit are also very popular
>>11397450
pierogi are the Polish variation of pelmeni

>>11389979
I have a sozen of those in my freezer right now because they were on sale for 2 bucks each.
Fucking great when I'm too lazy to actually cook. Just toss them in a pot frozen, fry some onions in butter while they cook, toss 'em in with them and serve.

The only accurate answer in this thread and it didn't even get any replies. This guy is 150% correct.
If it doesn't taste EXACTLY like babushka's food then it's garbage, and every babushka makes shit differently so slavs can't agree.

your wife's family wasn't making halászlé, but harcsapaprikás/harcsapörkölt, which is quite different and you usually consume it with túrós csusza

carp is good, unless it's very hot in the summer, that's when it tends to go shit

also, bajai > szegedi
szegedi is handicapped, because they don't eat it with pasta, it's not anywhere as filling as a good bajai with home-made pasta

>>11397278

>>11389979
You can find these in select grocery stores in Washington state.

American living in Ukraine here.

Best food I've ever eaten. Best coffee culture I've ever seen. I've lived all over and even mediocre joints bash out soul food better than the most expensive French restaurants. Even foreign dishes like Tournedos Rossini, which is $80+ dollars in the US, is $15~$20 here and just as good. Borscht cures cancer and Kephir helps you shit.

America is awful. Get a job online and leave it all behind for a 2nd world country and get a woman who cooks. That's my advice.

there are of course many variations, everybody will like the one their babushka made it and will shit on all the other ones but anyway here's how I usually prepare it:

>boil a pork knee until super soft and falling apart creating a strong pork stock
>pick all the meat from the knee
>grab a bunch of dried wild mushrooms (they are pretty expensive to buy so make sure to forage them in a forest in autumn and dry them yourself) put them in a bowl and pour hot water over them so they soften
>in pork lard brown some cubed pork shoulder seasoned with salt and pepper, then set aside
>in the same pot cook a large onion until softened
>add minced garlic and tomato paste and stir to combine
>add the pork shoulder and meat from pork knee to the pot
>season with a teaspoon of ground cumin and eyeball a lot of sweet hungarian paprika, cook for a while but be careful to not let the paprika burn or it will get bitter
>add sauerkraut (store bought is perfectly fine)
>add mushrooms along with the mushroom water
>add some bay leafs
>mix all that stuff together and pour in the pork stock you made using the knee
>bring the whole affair to boil and cook for 45-60 minutes on low heat
>some 15 minutes before finishing add the sausages
>serve with heavy cream
>enjoy

The dish might not look particularly appetising but it's really delicious.

Many people add potatoes and/or dried plums to the soup but I never cared for either of those in my kapustnica.

Enjoy.

Why is that passport brown but doesn't say "Official Passport" like brown (overseas U.S. government official) passports are supposed to be?

All this polish food talk, it's nice but Poland isn't the only eastern country. If you add the Balkans in the mix, you can get delicious romanian and serbian recipes. I'll type some up, tell me what you think:
Sarmale
Mămăliga with anything meat
Cozonac
Pleskavita
Tripe borsh
Gulas of any kind, the one made in the big pot over a fire
Pickled peppers
Pickled hot peppers
Pickled tomatoes
Fried sour cabbage with meat, goes good with a blander side, like mashed potatoes or mamaliga
Tochitura
Bulz
Musaca
Zacusca
Drob de miel
Ostropel
Slanina
Toba from pork
Stuffed bell peppers
Telemea
Boeuf salad is a beast

thats a delicious christmas carp you pleb

I live in PA and never realized this wasn't common food everywhere. Glumpki, Perogies, Szalonna. it's all good.

Thanks for the idea op. Im gonna break a rule here and post a picture of food i cooked

Mushroom and sauerkraut is the best perogi filling. Any other comes second to this. If your opinion differs from this, you probably order the chicken tendies when you go out.

>>11405273
You are right kapusta (kisona) z gzrybami is the best filling. Mixed pork and beef/cabbage and pork bacon are my second favorote tho. Pic related.

I only eat smaženice once a year or so...I dry the rest of the shrooms and use them in kuba or bramboračka.

not everything has to be deep fried and spicy, you know
also if you think that's bread - it's not, it's actually a kind of spongy dumpling that goes great with the sauce

god tier dish coming in

>>11389600
Always hated perogies as a kid, why would I want bland, way too mushed up potatoes in a dumpling? It's just a mushy carb overload.

Gyoza, on the other hand...

Pole here. Polish food is a disguting mess of fat and stinky cabbage. The only pierogi that are somewhat good are those with blueberries. Everything else is awful.

The bread is good tho. Ama.

82% of people residing in the UK are white British.
56% of people residing in the USA are white American.
Laugh it up fatty.

>>11406403
>UK
population 66m
82% = 54m white people
>USA
population 325m
56% = 182m white people

How is this even an argument. I mean have you seen the size of the two countries on a map? Go home hernandez.

Polfag here. I usually make my appearance here saying how much I don't like Polish food. I'm in a good mood today so I'll just say that as a cuisine, Polish food is pretty boring. There are some dishes that are great, but if you are used to eating a good variety of foods you'll be disappointed eating potatoes, cabbage and meat in one form or another all the time. The worst part of traditional Polish cuisine is how bland it is. Black pepper is considered very spicy by most Poles who grew up on Polish food.

The good foods are the ones that people like everywhere, things like dumplings. Compared to the variety in Asian dumplings though, Poland has nothing to show for...

Paprykarz used to be amazing back in commie days. I grew up in Szczecin where it's from and it was a great thing to eat. Now a days a bunch of different manufacturers do it and it's terrible. They add more rice than fish, and the flavour is off as well.

I'm always surprised how many poles are on 4chins. I think there's disproportionally more of us here for a 40m country. I wonder why.

>>11406403
Using the entire country of the USA as a statistic is irrelevant, when there are huge swaths of the US that are 95% white and areas close to Mexico that are 5%. And just because they reside here doesn't make them American, actual cultural Americans are still around 80% white.

>>11392305
Quebecois arent french

nice double standard

i have pretty much a phobia for food that looks like this. probably cooked for teethless alcoholic slavs.

>>11406383

Jello meat and fish are crap, but a good, spicy bigos that was tempering for 5 days on a cold balcony, and a nice thick PRL Mil-tec Grochówka aren't nice.

(jebać golonke i bieda-schabowe)

>>11408039

>>11389600
Most European food is pretty shit. Pretty much every country, except a few, is known for having maybe one good dish and alcohol because most of it sucks.

>>11405733
not from /pol/ but who cares what niggers think?

>>11405733
LMAO

>>11406383
Thank you. Even the native knows his food is garbage

>>11406412
not to take sides, but looking at maps can give you false impressions about the size of countries, i guess you were referring to the most commonly used maps, Mercator ones, which distort, a lot

just take a look at Russia and the US for instance, Russia is somewhat less than twice as big as the US, but on the map it looks 3-4 times as big

>>11406338
Sorry comrade but shuba is not god tier.

>>11405676
I noticed that when I was in Warszaw. But you have lots of great dishes I enjoyed more than my cuisine. (Żurek, pierogi z kapustą i grzybami, pelmeni, bigosz and awesome chleb). All washed down with Zubrowka i pszeniczne piwo! Pic related.

főzelék is a term used to describe a whole range of vegetable based stews, you can use whatever you have in your kitchen, from spinach and peas to potatoes, cabbage, lentils and beans

my fav is babfőzelék with sausages
