Interesting ideas from a Polish kitchen.

To learn about any specific traditional food, from any region of the world, you need to dive a bit into some details of how things are made and what methods work the best. Polish cuisine has a lot to offer in terms of cooking know-how. So each recipe I will present here will have elements of this knowledge. But it’s not just the recipes, sometimes it’s also about how certain kitchen procedures can produce a better effect than what you would get otherwise. Below posts are then separated into two sections:

  • Ideas – recipes with detailed methods of cooking
  • Know-how – important procedures of how to deal with a specific product.

Let’s then start learning. Enjoy
