A delicious filled dumpling made from fresh pasta. These take time, but are so worth it! Fill with Sauerkraut Filling or Potato and Cheese Filling. To freeze, place uncooked pierogies in melted butter. Cool, and place in freezer bags. The butter will keep them from sticking.
Ingredients
- 8 cups all-purpose flour
- 4 eggs
- 1 container sour cream , 8 ounce
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- warm water
- 1 recipe Sauerkraut Filling OR
- 1 recipe Potato Cheese Filling
Instructions
-
1
In a large bowl, beat together eggs, carton sour cream, and salt. Stir in flour and warm water. Add water until dough feels like velvet. Turn out onto a lightly floured board, and knead until smooth. Roll out to a 1/8 to 1/4 inch thickness. Cut out 3 1/2 inch circles with either the top of a glass or a biscuit cutter. Cover with waxed paper to prevent drying out if not filling immediately.

Place 1 or 2 tablespoons filling on one side of a circle of dough. Fold over, and seal by pressing the edges with a fork. Repeat until ingredients are used.

Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Immerse pierogi. Cook until the dumplings float to the surface. (See Cook's Note for tips on freezing extra pierogies.)

Beer-Marinated Deer Jerky
Lean deer meat (venison) is marinated overnight to perfection in beer and then dehydrated to become jerky. While this jerky recipe takes time to make, it is relatively easy and well worth it. My whole family loves it, and I bet yours will, too.
Sticky Buns I
Yum! What can be better than a hot sticky bun for breakfast-or a late night snack? Pop one (leftover) into the microwave for a few seconds to make them taste fresh from the oven.
Matzo Ball Soup
This matzo ball soup is so rich and flavorful, there's no reason to wait until Passover to enjoy it! This recipe has been in our Jewish family for generations. Some family members say it started with our great-great-grandmother Bubbie Rose. My husband (her great-great-grandson) has put his own twist on it by adding extra vegetables and fresh dill which we think sets this soup apart from the rest.
