I am from Canada and was adopted by a Canadian Ukranian family. My Mom made all the Ukranian food and taught me to as well. I'm currently sitting here, eating Ukranian Xmas leftovers that I made with my daughter: varenyki, holubtsi, nalysnyki, white navy beans, borscht and (store bought) Ukranian sausage. I love this lady's videos, I'm sure this is how it was before my family emigrated to Canada in 1897. Thank you for posting Alina ❤
I'm American Ukrainian. I went to St John's Ukrainian Catholic grammar school and church in Newark, NJ in the 60's-70's. In the basement of the school there was a big kitchen and the old babuskas would make pierogies twice a week and we had hot dogs for lunch on other days. The pierogies were so damn good. 3 kinds ...Potato and cheddar cheese ones, sauerkraut ones and Farmer's cheese ones all drenched in butter with a dollop of sour cream on the side on a paper plate with a white plastic fork. My mom and dad made them for the holidays christmas and easter same three kinds. Christmas and easter dinner, we had Turkey for Xmas, Ham for Easter with various trimmings, borscht along with a good butcher shop kielbasa and bakery babka and cheese cake and pierogies and holubtsi.

Omg I am in Alabama but grew up In Wva I javent heard of farmers cheese since I gotten married moved down here ..They dont even know what " farmers cheese" is..I have scoured from mobile Alabama to Pensacola fla and everywhere else in between..ive even looked in New Orleans ( they might have it but I just didn't hit the right store there) it's rare down here...I love farmers cheese..always used it in my antipasto salad..
My sister and I made a batch at Christmas...Mom was from Poland....I stuff some with sauerkraut and smoked polish...some with potatoes...some with sweet cottage cheese....And then freeze them
Moms side of family mother was from Ukraine. My mom never did much of this cooking but 3 of her sisters did. We always called them petaheh . One aunt called them varenky. At Christmas time there would be plates full of different varieties , potatoes, sauerkraut, meat and dessert ones with fruit. I married womam with Polish heritage. Now i eat plan old pierogies 😊
My husband is Ukrainian born in Canada. We love the 🥟 pierogis. He boils them then fries them in butter. He cooks onions and bacon and polish sausage. We top it with sour cream.
My family is Italian and my husband is Ukrainian and we love each other it's we've had some hard times right now between awful lot of stuff but anyway my daughter is raised up my daughter is Ukrainian and Italian and a beautiful young woman and she's trying to do her best and I'm doing my best too I remember when I first got married and he went to the house and her mom and dad were polish and Ukrainian please and play some good the food was so great and you know it's been rough but I know that is right I love to watch this kind of stuff
@@Cinemaphile7783 When I lived in PA, much was available b/c the heavy Polish influence in the area. I miss the delis and such, honestly. Good Kielbasa made by folks who had made kielbasa for generations, with the "old family recipe", is dearly missed.
Look at the video description. That’s as close as you get. There are no measuring cups involved. No exact temperatures or times. This is slow food prepared with love, patience, and intuition.
Hallo Alina super super lecker sieht das aus mmmmmm.....hatte auch letzte Woche und ich weis von was ich spreche . Danke für die schönen Aufnahmen ERSTE KLASSE!!!!😋😋😋
Looks delicious and not entirely hard to make. Hi Alina, this is David from Ohio USA. I enjoy making dumplings myself and always looking for new recipes to try. Honestly, it’s has been awhile since I made dumplings but here the weather and temperatures are changing and you have inspired me to make the dumplings which I will try your recipe. It will most likely not be the same as yours but I can come close.
These varenyki look fantastic, Alina!! 🥟🥰 Our Polish & Slovakian side of the family calls them pierogies, but they contain the same ingredients and are equally delicious! 🧅🥔 How cozy to cook a wonderful meal inside while it’s snowing beautifully outside!! ❄️🌲☃️ God bless Ukraine 🇺🇦
Looks delicious. And your pets are the best fed in Europe. And that platter of Varenyki...you have a healthy appetite.😁 I keep seeing this recipe around but I'm surprised that more seasoning is used. Thank you for this dish!
Але ж це геніальна подача: розломити вареник, взяти маленьку шкварочку, обмокнути в сметану. Як сам не здогадався? Тепер маю бажання приготувати так найближчим часом!
Complimenti Alina questi gnocchi saranno squisiti! 👏👏👏👍😋Quando la situazione tornerà alla normalità mi piacerebbe tantissimo fare un tour nel tuo bellissimo paese! Per ora ti seguo con piacere e interesse! Un caro saluto 👋 buona fortuna prego per voi tutti ciao ciao 💛💙🙏🙏🙏💛💙♥️❤️♥️❤️💯♥️♥️♥️
I don't speak Polish i don't speak German i don't speak Ukraine ❤, but i surely goodness knows that i love your video's they are appealing chilling cosy relaxing an mind healing environment. ❤
Смакота! У нашій родині прийнято робити вареники на пару, вони виходять пухкі і м'які. Тісно замішується на сироватці. Смачно словами не передати особливо із ягодами у літній час
Це як у якому регіоні. На пару- Полісся, Полтавщина. Захід- варять. Традиціі… Кожен любить те, до чого звик . Мені , наприклад, не подобаються на сироватці пухкі.
Alina, Yum ! Pierogis are so delicious ! Even as a Native American Lakota I know what they are and how they taste ! So SO good. I absolutely love ethnic foods, I appreciate all ethnicities foods. And this channel with you is so amazing to me. I so wish I knew you. 🙏🤞
MY MOTHER WAS UKRAINIAN AND MY FATHER RUSSIAN THIS IS THE WAY MY MOTHER MADE THEM EXACTLY. POTATOES WITH THE FAT BACK (SALT PORK) AND I HAVE BEEN MAKING THEM THE SAME WAY FOR 60 YEARS YOU ARE AUTHENTIC!
Thank you!! These would work for my grandson who is allergic to eggs and dairy! I would love it if you could give an approximation of the ingredient proportions.
I have seen these made in various parts of Ukraine they are basically very similar except what you choose to put inside. The two variations or one without sour cream and the other with sour cream. It’s really just an individual taste although it may be prominent in the region you live in
Smetana (or smotana) is a type of sour cream from Central and Eastern Europe. It is heaver and a bit more sour than american sour cream. I do like to add some grated horseradish to mine but it is not common to do so in Ukraine.
Liebe Alina , es sieht sooo😍lecker aus aus und du kochst mit so viel Liebe . Der Ofen mit dem offenen Feuer 🔥 ist auch sehr schön. Ich würde das Rezept sehr gern mal ausprobieren, kannst du mir vielleicht sagen wieviel Gramm und Milliliter ich von den angegebenen Zutaten brauche damit es mir gelingt ? Herzliche Grüße Heidi 🌸
