Ted's Baba's Special Recipe

Mon, 30 Sep 2002 22:00:20 -0400

This is an old recipe handed down from grandmother through 3 generations. The ingredient amounts and instructions are scant and will have to be adjusted to your likeing. Sometimes they are served with cottage cheese on the side and nearly always with sauerkraut. This dish forms part of a Ukrainian festive meal. My friend that gave me the recipe did not know the actual name of the dish. -- posted by Bergy

Each of the filling recipes will make enough to fill 4 nut rolls. These are a nice treat for breakfast/brunch :) Prep time includes rising time. -- posted by Dee514

Polish Doughnuts - Paczki

Tue, 11 Mar 2003 19:59:57 -0500

There are many recipes for Paczki. Some call for 10-20 egg yolks, grated orange or lemon rind, cream, rum or vodka. This is a simplified version flavored with mace. My Polish grandmother made her own plum jam from the trees in her yard but you can use your favorite. Posted by request. Prep time is estimated and includes rising time. -- posted by Lorac

Authentic Polish Paczki

Sat, 14 Feb 2004 19:59:18 -0500

This is the recipe I found handwritten in my Polish grandmother's cookbook. I have since found ones almost identical in Polish cuisine cookbooks. I so looked forward as a child to the Sundays that the Catholic church in Wilno, Minnesota sold paczkis after Mass on Sundays. They were the best treat ever. This recipe takes some effort, but they taste just as good. *NOTE....I'm adding this change after reading the last reviewer's very helpful comment that it tasted too eggy...she's right, it's a very eggy pastry dough. Be sure to use 6 whole eggs instead of the 12 yolks if you don't like that flavor (I know many people don't). It will work just as well, but be more to your taste. I'm so glad she took the time to bring this to my attention....it's something I should have mentioned before. -- posted by Vina

Poppy Seed Roll (Makowiec) & Bread Machine Method

Mon, 12 Apr 2004 20:00:12 -0400

Enjoyed at Christmas and Easter. I make this for friends and family to take home on Easter. Some likes lots of poppy seed filling and others request a little. It's hard to please everyone with one roll so I make a bunch. Depending on how dry your flour is you may need more or less water. You can make the dough the day before let raise one hour punch down then refrigerate over night. Then bring to room temp. Let rise 1 hour. Posted pictures on March,05 Alternate way to make dough in the food processor is the 1st picture, 2 is kneading in processor with eggs and wet ingredients, 3rd is the proof, 4th is 3 batches of dough one as recipe calls for,one is with 1 cup of rye and the third is with one cup of wheat flour(which made a drier dough). 5th picture dough rolled out with filling on it. 6th is rolling up. 7th Placed in loaf pans. 8th is egg washed and topped with dry poppy seeds. 9th baked. EASTER 2006-made dough in Bread Machine and it came out beautiful. The rest is really nice in the draft free and temp controlled machine. -- posted by ~Rita~

Rye Bread Ala Polish Papa

Mon, 18 Oct 2004 20:00:00 -0400

My dad made this bread for years and gave loaves to everyone he knew. Once they tried it, they'd drop not-so-subtle hints begging for more. I've adapted it to a 100% whole grain recipe, but otherwise it's all his. Slightly sweet, dense, and delicious. Do not omit the wheat gluten or otherwise you'll be waiting all day for it to rise (as did my dad). Also, toasting the caraway seeds really brings out their flavor, but it isn't critical. -- posted by Vina

Paluszki (Polish Little Fingers)

Fri, 04 Mar 2005 20:00:00 -0500

Usually a Polish hors d'ouerve made from mashed potatoes, but I've also seen a breakfast version made from cottage cheese. Best served straight from the oven. -- posted by littleturtle

Thu, 21 Apr 2005 20:48:24 -0400

After reading the posts in the Eastern European Forum and having my mouth water all day I went to the library. Being Polish I looked for any polish cookbooks I could find. There were not many on the shelf but found The New Polish Cuisine by Chef Michael J. Baruch. Now I can add even more recipes to my Polish cookbook here on zaar!! Thank you so much for creating the Eastern European Forum!!! -- posted by Lauralie41

Polish Fry Bread

I dont know the proper name for these yummy treats, but I was told they are polish. My great aunts neighbor makes them for us every year for our family reunion. She must make at least 4 batches of them. We all just about inhale them. They are so good! The neighbor lady gave me the recipe this year. She was so nice! Times and yield are estimated. -- posted by Chef Patience

Cocoa Babka

Tue, 14 Mar 2006 14:31:48 -0500

Easy cocoa filling and a homemade dough -- the stuff of babka dreams! Ghirardelli or other fine cocoas make the best filling. Next time I'll use fast-rising yeast and will report. -- posted by fluffernutter

Paczki (Polish "jelly" Doughnuts)

Wed, 24 May 2006 22:00:18 -0400

These are usually served just before the beginning of Lent. If you don't have a good old-fashioned bakery nearby, or you want to try your hand at making these treats, here recipe and tips on paczki-making from Polish Heritage Cookery. Prep time does not include rising time, and the cooking time is for 1 batch. The number of doughnuts bepends on size made and size of cutter used. Save the egg whites for another project. I've added a note about egg white recipes. -- posted by Nana Lee

Polish/Czech Blueberry Buns

Tue, 22 May 2007 23:01:56 -0400

We went over for dinner at a Polish friend's house and they served these for dinner. They are fluffy, lightly sweetened buns of steamed dough filled with blueberries. When I investigated the recipe, all I could find was a Czech version. I tweaked it to be just like my Polish friend's recipe. I hope you like it! You need a steamer for this. This recipe looks wildy complicated, but it really isn't...just try it once- I could eat 10 of these things! -- posted by Codychop

Brooklyn Bialy Recipe(Bialystok Kucken)

Tue, 29 May 2007 16:53:59 -0400

This was a recipe that originated in Bailystok Poland and brought to New York by Eastern European Immigrants.These were once well known in New York delicatessens ( mainly in Manhattans Lower East Side) and a favorite of the Jewish community. Its not really known outside of New York because of its short self life which does not lend itself being shipped all over the country. These are similar to a bagel but there is no hole in the middle just a depression which is filled with onion, garlic or poppy seeds. It can be likened to the onion pletzel. Can also be made in different sizes from 3-4 inches to the size of a small pizza. -- posted by Marlitt

Mon, 10 Mar 2008 02:02:18 -0400

This was always a favorite with my children! I wish I had some great pictures to post of some of these special, beautiful Easter dishes. Watch for more... -- posted by sassafrasnanc

Mon, 24 Mar 2008 23:48:12 -0400

Who doesn't like Chocolate? Chocolate babkas seems to be where it is at! This comes out beautifully in the bread machine. The raisins can be omitted. Soaking the raisins in rum, rose water or orange blossom water gives this an extra treat. -- posted by ~Rita~

Babci's Babka

Tue, 21 Oct 2008 00:30:01 -0400

My Babci's (grandmother's) babka is a bit drier and more like bread than most that I have made or eaten. While I like the softer, more cake-like versions, my family has other ideas! My father used to have thin sliced babka with Easter ham as a sandwich. This is the recipe that my mother transcribed from the original Polish, when my Babci wrote it down. It's just yummy with a thin coat of soft butter! -- posted by monicawf

Mrs. Peltz's Onion Flat Rolls (Pletzlach)

Mon, 14 Dec 2009 00:31:11 -0500

Found this gem in The New York Times - I plan to make them this week. Oh, my DF, a lovely woman of Polish descent who has kept her Brooklyn accent after being gone so many years, will be soooo surprised! The article noted - Like the bialy, a form of pletzel from Bialystok, her tzibele pletzel (onion pletzel) is studded with onions and poppy seeds, but it is flatter than the bialy and made from a sweet dough formed into a round, rolled out very thin and then pricked with a fork. I'm using 2 tespoons yeast for my first making & will increase to the 2 tablespoons yeast the recipe calls for. -- posted by Buster's friend
