Oh No! It has got Sodium Nitrate in it that turns colon polyps cancerous. Consult your doctor before trying this. I love the jelly too but will not be buying this.
My dad was Polish so often eat polish food and buy Polish food from the supermarket and Polish shop. Its nice that you reviewed this although it not something i would buy. Definately guys check out the international section at your local supermarket its often similar and cheaper to the mainstream stuff. Polish food is very much comfort food much like we have have here. The food is different but its has the same basis of being warming and comforting on cold winters days.
I love their garlic sausage range too and it’s difficult to get good garlic sausage….even the smoked cooked pork belly is delicious..I’ve tried several polish foods and all delicious.dont think I’ve not enjoyed any… definitely encourage branching out and trying…☺️
The Morrisons suet steak pie that you recently reviewed, are indeed excellent. Even better, they were 3 for 2 so £7,98 for 3 which is £2.66 each ! Thanks for reviewing them otherwise I’d probably not have tried them.
That looks fancy! Scant chance of getting it here in Ireland, they don't even have Spam, or lard in any of the supermarkets I been to. Will drive over the border soon and see what I can find! Great video as always Gaz.
I absolutely LOVE this ham. ❤❤❤ It's the closest I have found to the tinned ham we used to buy back in the early 1970s. So tasty, and you can see it's real meat, not slurry all stuck together with jelling agents. Our family love most of the Polish meat products, very tasty and still reasonably priced.
They also do a nice stew. Ive got tins of it in my emergency food stash. Another polish thing I discovered because I couldnt resist the name is noble knuckle of the highest table. It comes in a jar and looks awful but is delicious eaten cold.
I’ve had this about a month ago and finished the tin in one go. A polish friend opened it for me to try because he knew I liked spam. When he came back with the crusty little breads he couldn’t believe I had scoffed the lot. I didn’t realise we were to share it. He’s gone back home now and I’ve no idea where he got it. Thanks for the memories Gaz. 👍
I remember the previous vid:) YES - this is exactly how we eat it in PL. We usually eat it with my family when on a trip. We eat it with fresh bread/buns, butter, onion, tomato, lettuce, salt, pepper. Wash it down with a wam cup'o'tea.
AW your making me hungry again. Now I have to go to the shops to try and find all the Stuff. A little Tip . As i am trying to loose weight , so that Whale watch Ireland stop trying to put a tag on me when i go Swimming in the Sea, I scoop out most of the soft white dough in the baguette , it makes more room for filling and reduces the amount of bread i eat. Have a good week
PEK Chopped Pork is much better and is fantastic dry-fried (no oil) till crisp. It has better texture and flavour than Krakus brand. Chill in fridge before opening, then it will be firm and easy to cut in the tin and won't fall apart ... no need to remove from tin as once you get one slice out the rest will be easy. Use one of those tin openers that cut around the edge of the tin then you can pop the lid back on when storing in the fridge.
I know this is a few months old, but this week, I'm having to order an asda shop for delivery as I've no car this week. I saw this in the World Food section. It's cheaped than pur equivalent ham and pork brands, I also saw horseradish and beetroot relish, I think that would be a very good addition to a baguette. My sister in law is Polish, and I've tasted that relish, and it's very good
This looks good, you expect jelly and feel cheated if its missing. So glad it has jelly... It was fought over!!! We always had a tin of 'good ham' in the cupboard for guests sandwiches or quick dinner with salad. This look s as if it might do chopped up and tossed through salad stuff to make a tasty dish. I always hope that someone would bring back tinned chicken... Yup a whole chicken and jelly in a Tin about 1200g now. It disappeared off the market just like the fabulous tin of roast beef slices... Ooh glory days of childhood... Will give this tin a taste. Thank you for doing all the hard work.
Nice review. Yeah I’ve started picking up polish items in Asda. In the fridge by their German/polish section I’ve bought a tub of egg salad with potatoes. Also a tin like yours of pork and patè. All cheap and all tasty
The top left picture on your fridge drawn by your daughter reminds me of the Scream created by Norwegian artist Edvard Munch in 1893. She must be very gifted.
Always love your videos! W in Polish is pronounced V so it would sound like golonkova. I'm a Brit living in Poland and Krakus products are always good.
I remember the big push for cheap labourers in the early 2000s by UK Agency's recruiting in Poland. All it did was keep wages low for manufacturers and farmers.
Yep, good stuff Baldy. Get to the Polish Supermarket for a jar of Bilberries, Morrisons short cut pastry. Bilberry Pie mate, custard or cream. Thank me later.
I buy the PEK equivalent in sainsbo's when it is on offer, usually £2 a tin (300g). I fry it sliced to go on toast with eggs and beans, cube and fry to go with fried cabbage and potatoes, fried sliced with mushrooms in a toasted sandwich. I'll look out for the Krakus stuff, as we have a big tesco nearby.
I like the PEK which is often on offer in one or other of the big supermarkets but best price recently is Farmfoods who are selling 2 x 400g family size tins for just £3!
Stunning - I’d even say a big ,wonderful Trigger when you started eating the baguette 🥖,phwooaar ! I have definitely had this as I am a pek lover ,rather than spam. My favourite is between English mustard or ketchup…I’m all about this. I’m sure Poland will forgive you for the pronunciation .. I’d definitely say,give it a go ,you won’t be disappointed 👌👌🙌☺️
Personally I rarely use pull rings. I'd much prefer to a can opener. One of them ones of those that cuts the side of the can, not the top of the can. I find food stuff slides out easier!
HI GARETH DEBRA HERE FROM MAESTEG SOUTH WALES Been on Google translate and translated Krakus Golonkowa Krakus is cracked Golonkowa is Pork knuckle So ir is cracked pork knuckle.
I do like Polish hams and sausages. My favourite sausage to eat is Masurian cooked sausage. You can get it in Aldi, Lidl and Tesco. Going back to the Polish luncheon meat ? I’ve bought this from my local Polish deli and it’s well tasty and great for a sarnie. There are different kinds you can buy and the girl in the deli explains them all to me with regard to flavour etc. Keep up your investigations into food and prices mate. You’re doing us all a great favour in seeking out great grub at decent prices. 👍🏻👍🏻.
Use quite a few polish food products,best to go to the polish shops get better value/cheaper,also helps when you work with poles they point you in the right direction.
👍 Depending on the type of tin open the bottom with a tin opener and just push it through! Chill in fridge first! With a bit of salad one tin will do you a sandwich for work for a week!
I'd forgotten, but years ago I worked a summer job at Harris's pork pie factory in Ipswich, and I remember the 'Pork cheese' made from the head. Its a bit like that forkfull of jelly you tried at the start. Mmmmm. Theres another memory it brought back: I wandered around the site one day , and I heard this regular thud coming from a some ducting into a 'skip' on the loading bay. When I looked, the thuds were boiled clean pigs skulls coming off a conveyer dropping into the skip! They werent for waste, they went to another bit of the factory where rollers went round in a big circular enclosure turning them into bone meal for fertiliser.
Defo havin some of this Lad looks bang tidy, I totally love a bit of Spam but bit pricey and usually goes straight thru us. Crackin vid and can’t wait to try
I think Krakus makes one lb. and five lb. Canned hams. Years ago the one lb canned ham was 1.99. That ship has sailed, lol, they went up up up, in price
The East European shops you find in many town centres are great, you can get all kinds of stuff in there. They usually have some really interesting crisps, sweets, biscuits and pop as well.
@@BaldFoodieGuy There's a really good one in Barrow if it's still there, it's been a couple of years since I was over there. It's called 'The European Shop' or something similarly obvious like that.
I would eat it with some nice pickled onions, baby gherkins or pickled red cabbage and crusty bread with some nice fresh tomatoes on the side. It reminds me a little of rillettes.
Krakus is one of the tastiest tinned pork products on the market. I have eaten it just like Gareth did, on a baguette, on a crusty bread roll, on sourdough toast. It's delicious. Polish shops always have a number of foods that we never see in British supermarkets, although Tesco has been selling Krakus and other Polish products for several years. I love the jelly, too. Pork pies often don't have any jelly, maybe because butchers think it's unhealthy. But most European countries don't fuss so much about food, and their populations live long and enjoyable lives. Also, Polish grocers don't have fancy prices, because they mainly serve young guys on minimum wage on the farms and food factories.
tip use same knife but go closer to walls and go other way with blunt side. next gulasz angielski from Morliny is so much better, bigger chunks of red meat
