Cooking Instructions
- Classic
IMPORTANT: Overcooking will decrease the quality of the dough.
Option: Once the pierogi have cooked, and have been thoroughly drained, you can fry them on a pan for a crispy taste. Place pierogi on a skillet with a bit of oil and fry on low heat until evenly brown on both sides.
- Fried
IMPORTANT: Make sure to keep on low heat as you fry the pierogi as high heat toughens the dough.
- Potato & Bacon Pierogi serving tips:
Chop half an onion and sauté over a quarter cup of oil. Allow the onion to get lightly crisp then pour the onion and oil over your pierogi and toss to make sure it is evenly distributed over the dumplings. Serve with a side of sour cream sprinkled with a bit of green onion or chive.
