cheese ones are better

>>14335893
I worked with a guy who made a huge deal about them and ate them when he went home for Christmas every year as like the main thing he looked forward to. He ended up dressing like a woman and going on hormone pills. But I do believe he loved those pierogis

>>14335893
mashed potato inside buns

>>14335893
barf no UGH

>>14335893
No, it tastes like barf.

>>14335893
yes, amazing actually. I miss summer bazaars that I had growing up, get a nice tray of pierogi some haluski and pagach for a few bucks.

With cabbage they are even better

just mashed potatoes?

>>14335893
they're overrated like pretty much every other dumpling. Official tier list:

S: Har Gow, Shumai

A: Gyoza

B: pierogi/pelmeni

C: samosa, beef patty, xiaolongbao

F: gnocchi, chicken and "dumplings", and other various things that aren't actually dumplings.

>>14335923
that slav tranny probably ate carp every christmas too.

so it was probably literally gourmet food in relation to everything else there

>>14335893
>boiled but not fried
Hunky Bill would be disappointed.

>>14336169
Yeah, exactly my point regarding why >>14336144 >>14336156 is a retard because he thinks he's denying something by not linking the post, when trying to dodge it with an @ seeps infinitely more butthurt and is more satisfying than a traditional (You) for the type of person who craves them

>no ravioli on top of everything else
Bait

>>14335893
I only make them with ground pork and seasoning. Potato and cheese is dumb as fuck IMO, but this place near me does em with meat and it's good.

>>14336195
>on top of
If we are talking about Italian then the torteloni is king, ravioli is dog shit.

>>14336106
Xiaolongbao are best dumpling. Melt in your mouth.

>>14336212
All italian food is utter fucking garbage. I've had authentic shit in Little Italy, Actual Italy, and in my home town. It's just gluttonous, obscene pasta dishes. At least the Mexicans have variations with their regions.

>>14336212
all dumplings are the same, the only difference if filling.

>>14336220
>All italian food is utter fucking garbage
Pizza is amazing remove yourself.

>>14336228
The main difference is the surrounding, the next difference is the filling, then the preparation, then the presentation. The dough used in most European dishes is different to that of Asian cuisine. This can change depending on regions and availability. Filling is usually dependent on region; meat or vegetable and then varietals thereof. The prep is usually 3 ways: boiled, steamed or fried. Yes it is possible to prepare it other ways but that is the big 3. The presentation is either as itself or with sauce.

>>14336220
>praising Mexican food over Italian food.

>>14336252
Mexican food is better than Italian food though. The best Euro dishes are French. The best American dishes (both norte y sur) are Mexican. Mole is better than any cheese filled dish Italians could come up with.

>>14336260
>The best American dishes (both norte y sur) are Mexican.

>>14336271
Instead of shitposting, name a better cuisine than Mexican for both Americas.

I hate this board

One makes a thread about X, and spergs start spergging making a list ranking tangentially similar items according to his preference.

>>14336290
And then some dumbass Mexican comes along with his shit opinions and ruins it for everyone. /ck/ in a nutshell.

>>14336228

Tortellini and Ravioli both have the same fillings. But they are different shape.
Tortellini is the superior choice.

>>14336271
The best mexican dish (Chimichanga) is actually American. (invented in America, not Mexico)

>>14335893
i dont think they taste bad, they just taste kinda plain. almost like youre just eating dough filled with dough with a faint potato flavor.

>>14336106
>hating on gnocchi
>chingchong food top
Oh you're retarded

>>14336106
Holy shit what godawful taste. Your opinions are bad and you should feel bad.

>>14335893
They are great. Top them with fried onions and bacon bits.
There is also a variety filled with cabbage and shrooms.
You literally can do no wrong with pierogis

>>14336110
Say that to my face, fucker. Not online.
See what happens

>>14336421
Retardo maximo

>>14336106
Pierogi and pelmeni are two completely different things, you illiterate bimbo

>>14335893
As a Pole, I just don't understand why can't foreigners figure out that pierogi (ruskie, specifically):
>Should have a mix of chopped and fried onion, mashed potatoes and sour cream as filling
>Shouldn't be fucking DEEPFRIED like some recipes say

>>14336421
>>14336231

Pizza is american.
Tomato based pasta sauce is from Mexico.
Pasta is from Rome or Greece.
Garlic bread is from Rome.

I'm not sure if Italy has actually originated any food.
What food is uniquely Italian.

>>14336790
I wouldn't trust a Polack's opinion over a Ukey when it comes to pierogi.

>>14335893
It tastes a lot better than it sounds because yes it does sound rather bland.

>>14336106
Congratulations 5 social credit points have been added to your account. Fucking sly yellow cunt your organs are going to be harvested in about 4 weeks.

>>14336818
>What food is uniquely Italian
>Garlic bread is from Rome

>>14335893
>>14335927
These are both delicious
I'd even go so far as to say that they taste better with potato than meat filling

Also they're called pelmeni/vareniki, not fucking pierogi
polski kirwas poshli nahui

>>14336827
Ukrainians have their own dishes similar to pierogi and they're a completely different thing tho

I made a bunch of homemade pierogi the other week and froze the rest. Gonna enjoy some tonight with butter, onions and sour cream.

>>14337296
do you freeze them raw or after boiling?

yes they are very good
with diced onion, plz

>>14335923
Yes, it's a proven fact that pierogis make you transsexual. You shouldn't eat them if you don't want that.

>>14335893
My grandma is from Odessa and used to make pierogi with wild mushrooms my grandpa would pick. Fuckin amazing.

>>14335893
Starch on starch is always an abomination and a poverty meal.

>>14335893
They're amazing.

>>14336957
Varenyky/pyrohy are basically the superior perogy. Cheese and potato filling, boiled and fried, then topped with a dollop of sour cream, fried onions, and bacon. Unbeatable.

good boy

Dumplings of all forms are good

>>14338930
The modern Chinese are the most mutty mixed race on the planet, so the irony is palpable.

>>14335893
This is why italian food is overrated slop.

>>14336220
Somebody get the based department on the line.

>>14336260
>The best Euro dishes are French

No. French wine is also fucking terrible.

Cherry pierogies are the goat

>>14339715
Pierogi are Polish, though...............

>>14338771
Can't remember the name, but all forms of these pierogi-like meat pies from Ukraine are blessed too.

>>14335893
beef pierogis are far superior

>>14336827
Varenyky and pierogi are literally the same goddamn thing

pirogi are god tier food

>>14335893
The ones my polish grandma made were unforgettable. As with most food, it's in the quality of ingredients. Also, her potato pierogi were quite peppery. There was enough pepper that they were actually a little bit spicy. You'd feel it more in your nose than in your mouth, but it was still a nice sensation. And of course "potato" pierogi should contain equal parts potato and farmer's cheese. The crumbly kind of fresh cheese.

>>14335893
It's like an adult uncwustibles just for you, baby dick.

>>14336028
wtf guys this shit is disgusting

>>14336106
There is no ravioli at all on your list. There are no russian pirozhki either. Although if you count fried/baked dumplings, you might have to include calzones and empanadas.

>>14336028
Haluski is a fraud. That's not Polish. It's Czech/Slovak, maybe Polish highlander at best. Western Poland has no idea what that is.

>>14339936
>looks italian
>sounds italian
>also made by jews

>>14336028
>haluski
is that halupki/galupki?
cabbage leaves stuffed with meat/rice and in a tomato sauce?

>>14336028
>haluski
The bacon, cabbage pasta?

>>14335893
They are great.
Just make sure you have a decent amount of onion in your filling regardless if they are vegetarian or meaty.

>>14335893
I mean it's mashed potato in a pasta.
If you like both pasta and mashed potato then yes, they are great.
I generally use Garlic and herbs in mine and often serve them with some sour cream/kummis/leban

If you put other things in them- you probably made tortellini, which is also fine.

>>14336106
Your opinions are bad and you should feel bad.
I believe I may have tried every kind of native dumpling that exists outside Africa and the Americas
It's pretty arbitrary because there are so many variations, Knishes, German breaded dumplings, Kyrgis mantys could all be included- or go even farther and include baked pastries/pies and stuffed flatbreads.
I can't remember having ever eaten any African or Australasian dumplings that i liked

My list:
>Pork Gyoza (pan fried, glazed), Japan
>Lamb Khinkali, Georgia
>Soup dumplings, Shanghai
>Vegetable samosas (deep fried), Punjab
>Red cooked pork buns, China
>Red bean paste dumplings, Japan
>Beef Mentis, Kyrgestan
>ricotta Schlutzkrapfen, Tyrol/italy

>>14340499
This.
>>14341275
>>14341288
No. It's potato dumplings. You can pop sausage and cabbage on it, or whatever you thing goes well with it. But the most traditional way is halušky with bryndza and oškvarky. Traditional Slovak meal, also common in eastern Czech and southern Poland.

>>14339968
>>14339979
It's a weird regional thing, but some places a pyrohy is a baked pie-thing which is Russian style. Pyrohy/varenyky as more of a boiled/fried dumpling-thing is a Rusyny dish, which is why there's a Poland/Ukraine split when it comes to how to cook them.

>>14335893
they're supposed to also contain cottage cheese and fried onions, I also like it if the filling has a lot of black pepper

but that is really only one variant of pierogi, called "ruskie" over here in Poland - various fillings are available, most commonly meat, sauerkraut, mushrooms or fruit / sweet cheese but you could fill them with anything and they'd still be pierogi

>>14336220
>At least the Mexicans have variations with their regions.

You’ve clearly only been to one city in one part of Italy tastelet

>>14336220
Typical contrarian poster.
>I've had authentic shit in Little Italy
They are all probably from one part of Italy, and half the dishes are probably for America/Italian greaseballs

Honestly the worst of the Slav foods. Frankly mortified that this is the iconic food of my people when there is so much better.
Unless we are talking saurkraut stuffed pyrohy. Those slap.

Homemade Potato cheese Pierogies are the greatest food I have ever eaten. I knew it when I first tried them as a little kid and I know it know after my 38 years on this planet.

>>14335893
>fry in butter and caramelized onions with the pan lid on
>about halfway through add in some garlic and onion powder and herbs of your choice
>done
>add a bit of pepper
Pierogis are a gift from God. If someone doesn't like them then their taste buds are literally broken and should have a personal janny that follows them and deletes their posts on /ck/

Italian food is shit. Being low-IQ non-whites you convince yourself otherwise.
t. been the entire length of Italy.

>>14335893
surprisingly good. the cheese really does add a lot of flavor to the potatoes. eat them with bacon or kielbasa

Damn son, as a Pole i give that a 7,5/10 - mostly because of the weird, and unstable pinching on the edges. Otherwise, i would accept you as a family member.

>>14345340
As an American that is a really high honor. Thank you!

>>14340256
what is farmer's cheese? a kind of ricotta?

>>14345824
I would assume it's a blase term to refer to any crumbly moist cheese.

>>14335893
I had a colleague thats heritage is polish/ukraine or someshit. Had hot as cousins and shit but I am too much of a fugly bastard to get in their pants.

But anyways for multicultural week he served some of this and I thought what the fuck is this shit dumplings with cheese? I have heard of chinese pork dumplings but not this shit.

Turns out that they're fucken delicious. Same with the saukraut and pork processed meat thing he brought.

Sweeto!
