When I was at the grocery store, I saw Pierogi, so many choices. I have a friend who gets in the mood for them. It’s interesting, because they are like Italian ravioli. Then, I thought, you’ve got the Asian pot stickers. All a little different, but the same idea with a different name.
Do you have a preference for any of these? I wonder, do the Germans/Austrians have something like ravioli or pierogi? I know they make great dumplings.
Thinking of dumplings, I’m getting in the mood for Matzo Ball soup now!

Yummy. I was raised on Pierogi and have my German Canadian mother’s recipe. I love potato and onion, and potato and cheese. I was delighted to find some at a grocery store near me here in Spain. Happy days. The best comfort food ever.

Yes, I agree. I like the potato and onion ones too.

Pasta is of European origin, Pierogis are Slavic in origin. One goes with wine. The other with Vodka. There. I fixed it.

Every culture has a variation of a dumpling. I think it’s the one food that is truly universal.

I need to try pierogis again. I think I have tried once, decades ago.
I can’t think of anything similar in Brazil.
Blessings to you!

Do you eat more rice than pasta?

I definitely eat more rice than pasta. At my home in Brazil there is white rice every day, even when there is pasta.

Interesting to hear how different countries eat. I don’t know much about Brazil, did not realize you ate a lot of rice. I’ll have to look up Brazilian food.

I need to try Pierogi so I can compare them with the other two. Until then, ravioli rule!

Pierogi are nice, they are normally cooked/sautéed in butter and then you put sour cream on top. The fillings are different from Italian fillings.
