Reviews
I used to read cookbooks when I was younger. With the time flow, I became more about practice. But these recipes made me feel kind of a flashback. I started reading and could hardly keep myself from cooking all of the dishes. I am almost sure this book will serve a great guide for newbies, as well as a wonderful discovery for the chefs. The recipes in Pierogi are all simple but stylish, I'd never think about using the usual products this extraordinary way. You should try!
Ioann Yanchyshyn, President of West Chef Group
Pierogi is a Ukrainian cuisine representative and a unique international dish collection at the same time. You will not be challenged, but will get a great result both from the process and from the dish. I was totally intrigued by the variety of tastes and even colors Pierogi suggests. You need no special time, supply or even experience to dive into a wonderful world this book uncovers.
Aleksandra Patturi, Saveurs Magazine publisher
Pierogi is a well-researched book with a lot of information about this dish from the Classic to the Modern. Moreover, it gives alternative recipes for the dough as well. Nowadays, when life gets maniacally busy it is great to have Pierogi at your hands to cook a simple but always different meal for any occasion or without the one. Fine images, good story, and a pleasant surprise are at your service here.

Preface
There are things you do not pay much attention to in your everyday life. Even the meals you eat just because youve somehow got used to. Can you describe the real aroma of the egg protein youve got for breakfast? Or tell the difference between the orange and red orange juice taste you have been drinking day-by-day since you were a kid? Food has somehow become one of the routines in life. And this really sucks.
That is why we want to help you in recalling of the real taste. Moreover, weve created this wonderful cookbook of proven hand-made recipes for your taste of life to come back.
How do we know your food favourites? Oh, do not tell us what you eat. Or who are your friends. Let us just follow your face expression while reading this book of culinary discoveries. We guarantee surprise, vivid interest and excitement to be among them. These are what weve experienced when first uncovered this extraordinary universe of hand-made cuisine. And we are also confident everyone will find the most suitable recipe to try and hopefully fall in love with.
Now, lets imagine a breakfast without the fried eggs and toasts? Or even a party without the chips & snacks? We were also doubtful. But our inner hunger for experiments turned the scepticism off. And weve stepped our investigating, probing and failing way. Until.. Weve found a real treasure! It can substitute all the conservative gastronomic clichs for every mealtime with ease.
Please welcome Pierogi.
You know for sure the feeling when youve just learned riding a bike, and every single minute you want to resume that feeling of the wind in your hair. We are chomping at the bit to share our discoveries with you!
