Sorry to say, but this site has been so depressing for a few days. I thought I'd ask an average, everyday question....to make us all feel a little more normal today.
I made Eggplant Lasagna, and my BIL and SIL are coming for dinner. They leave for Cali tomorrow to see their beautiful grand daughter.
Sorry, sometimes we just need some REGULAR conversation.......or at least THIS caregiver does.
Are the frozen ones any good, wondering if I should try them first.
Burnt that sounds really good, sauteed, with onions and everything is better with butter! 😋
I have had homemade and I didn't think they were loads better than the frozen.
I think a really good sour cream makes a huge difference, as you know, not all are created equal.
Used to use dollop of Daisy until I tried the above.
I've had store-bought pierogi that weren't bad. They were fresh though, not frozen. If your grocery store has them they would be in the refridgerator case. If you can get fresh ones they're pretty good. If you have the time, make them yourself. They freeze very well and keep for a long time. Then you've got a meal any time you want.
If you make them yourself and want to freeze for future use here's how. Line a baking sheet with parchment or wax paper. Lay out the pierogi evenly on it. Put in the freezer until they are almost frozen. Then transfer to freezer bags. The will keep for a long time. You cook them from frozen by putting them in boiling water (with a little oil so they don't stick).
Burnt - that's the right way to freeze many things, like berries, chopped veg etc. Harder for me now with out a big freezer, but I manage. I like to chop up and freeze veg that aren't being used up like bell peppers and also onions which makes meal prep easier.
