(43,182 posts)Pierogies are most commonly filled with a mixture of potatoes and cheese, although other fillings are used as well. (For example, sauerkraut).
They are best served with melted butter and sauteed onions with a side of sour cream.
Now if you excuse me, I'm going to find myself the nearest slavic foods outlet......

(8,646 posts)My Ukrainian Baba used to make them as a dessert also, with blueberry filling.
The normal ones were potato & bacon, potato & cottage cheese, potato & onion and potato & cheddar. Loved the sauerkraut ones too - my mom buys them at a local Ukrainian shop (that sells the best kubasa ever).
And what goes even better with perogies than sour cream is sweet Dill cream. It's basically a white cream sauce loaded with dill. yum! Sauteed onions are a MUST though.

(39,191 posts)My Dad would spend the entire day making, cooking, and freezing pierogies. Every imaginable kind. My favorite was sauerkraut and onion. Thousands at a time. He'd give them to friends, we'd have them at least twice a week for most of my growing up years.
I still eat them today at east once a week. I am no longer close enough to Piast in Garfield NJ to buy them fresh made ( http://www.piast.com/pages/buy-pierogi-online ) and they aren't the same frozen, so I make do with the store-brought fresh brand from PA until I go visit my sister near there and then load up.
No one made them like Dad. I miss that small room of my life.

(43,182 posts)So you know I enjoyed my good share of pierogis.
Unfortunately, I haven't mastered the art of making them myself like my mother or grandmother. The store brand will have to do until Christmas, at least.

(8,646 posts)Mine look terrifically inedible, but they actually taste divine. It simply takes too long, and I don't have time. My mom used to use a plastic perogy maker to make it go more quickly, but we still had to re-pinch the edges (that was my job).

Silence I take as tacit approval.
