Kasia’s Potato and Cheddar Pierogi is one of our newer and better selling items. The dumplings are filled with freshly whipped Idaho potatoes and freshly grated cheddar cheese. It’s a great flavor combination that appeals to both adults and children. Garnish Kasia’s Potato and Cheddar Pierogi with sauteed onions and melted butter or a dab of sour cream.
For Best Quality
Let pierogi thaw. Place in a skillet with melted butter and 3 to 4 tbsp. of water on low heat and turn occasionally to brown evenly on both sides.
IMPORTANT: High heat toughens the dough.
To Boil
Heat 3-4 qrts of water in a pot to slow boil. Add a tsp. of salt, if desired. Place pierogi in boiling water, uncovered for 2 to 3 minutes or until rise to the top. Stir occasionally, drain. Do not overcook.
IMPORTANT: Overcooking decreases quality.
Place pierogies on the grill with foil, or in aluminum trays. Pat with butter, or oil. Add your favorite grilled vegetables, bacon bits, and spices.
