The pronunciation is not that important, but I appreciate the effort you put to find some proper facts about the food. It is rare in the foreign video. Well done ! Enjoy Polish meals !
Hello Delicious! You have no idea how much we appreciate the affirming kind words. We're trying to get the best information out there for those who are planning to visit. Is there anything that you would add to this list?
@@tuesdaybingo Thank you ! There are many regional dishes worth to taste. One "must" to try is a salted sour cucumber "kiszony ogorek" (made the same method as sauerkraut, not with a vinegar) - as it is or in form of the soup ("ogorkowa"). There are some potato dumplings worth to try ("pyzy ziemniaczane" or "kartacze") - in form of balls, plain or stuffed (very similar to the Lithuanian Cepelinai). A well prepared duck baked with apples and red cabbage is worth to try also.
Dots and commas next to letters play an important role in Polish. As the English keyboard does not contain these characters, you did not get the correct wording in the translator: not vodka but voodka, not silesian dumplings but kluski śląskie (klooski slonskie), not souerkraut but kapoosta kiszona. But, I agree, you chose the dishes and drinks typical of our cuisine. Greetings from Warsaw!
Oh my goodness! Thank you for writing that in. If/when a part two happens, we'll definitely have to pay close attention to that. In other news, depending on what happens with the European Union today, I am planning on landing in Warsaw this coming Saturday! How's the weather been?
@@sqit2gops542 Fucking hell, who cares? Silesia is the English name for Śląsk, easier for foreigners to pronounce for sure. Does it really matter which version they choose when they speak?
None of the phone pronunciation was correct. Your phone just read the english way - like you :) For example... there is no "dumplings" word in polish language. The is no "zurek" "silesian" etc... these are not polish words, it's english.
Mindfield! Thank you for the note and thank you for being helpful! Excuse the late response, as I just got back from backpacking Poland and learned really quickly how ALL my pronunciations were pretty off. Expect a part 2 video soon with our opinion of the top 10 foods and hopefully better pronunciations!
The soup in the 9th minute is Ukrainian borscht - definitely with beans and pieces of beetroot. It cannot be confused with red borscht. The same goes for white borscht and sour soup (żurek). Try some dumplings (pierogi) with meat and lentils. Greetings from Poland.
Szymon22bdg! Thank you for writing in and the clarification. Since making this video I have travelled to you Country, experienced the entire center from Zakopane to Sopot and ate my fair share of borscht and noticed some differences in the photos myself! Where in Poland are you from? Would you add anything else to this list?
@@tuesdaybingo As for food (because that's what this movie is about). I don't know you said about oscypek (cheese from the mountains). Come to Poland on February 24 next year. If you like sweet - you will be delighted. On that day, Poles eat donuts (pączki), faworki and cakes with impunity. And learn to make bigos. Sauerkraut is made very easily. You have the same cabbage and rock salt. Of course I would add sausages. Most of the world has no idea how many types of sausages we have in Poland. But this is probably material for a separate episode.
This voice translator is stupid. :-) Sauerkraut means Polish kapusta kiszona, Silesian noodles (dumpings) - kluski śląskie :-) etc. Borscht is one thing and Lithuanian cold soup is another. Borscht can be clean, served with paszczecik (Wrapped pancake stuffed with mushrooms and cabbage or meat. It is breaded and fried ), ears (uszka)- small dumplings stuffed with wild mushrooms. There is also Ukrainian borscht which is in your photos. This dish is popular in south-eastern Poland and Ukraine. In the Polish version, potatoes are replaced with white beans. Lithuanian cold soup is made from young beetroots. The name comes from the times of former Poland (Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth) In the past, crayfish necks or boiled veal were served as an addition to cold soup. This is also how it is served in good restaurants. There are regional varieties of cold soup without the addition of beetroot. There are many more interesting dishes in Poland. It's your subjective choice. That's why it's OK. Each region of Poland has its own regional cuisine. There are also a noble and bourgeois cuisine. :-))))
Hello Yake! Thank you for such a thorough and thoughtful write up here; you've included a lot of great points and lessons! Are you from Poland yourself?
Thanks for writing in, spiety75! Believe it or not, bigos didn't make the top ten foods. It was mentioned multiple times in our survey responses, but these ten were just more recommended. Thank you for the input, I suggest everyone reading try this Polish hunter's stew. It's the national dish of the Country and tastes delicious!
Oh my goodness, so do we. We ended up being able to go in September and had to force ourselves to order pierogi after half the trip was finished. I will make the statement that Polish food is the most underrated cuisine I have tried so far. Beyond delicious.
Hi mm trt! Thank you for your clarification and input! Is there anything that's missing from this list that you would add? Are you yourself from Poland?

Hello, Arkadiusz! Thank you for this comment. I was really surprised that bigos didn't make the list, especially since it's the Country's national dish! I also agree that everyone should give it a try!
"Starka" - I do not know, but I am Polish o.O Potato pancakes with white sugar are the best XD Kluski śląskie - not Silesian dumplings XD The cabbage must also be properly compacted in a barrel before pickling, otherwise it will become moldy :P Did I hear you right? Stuffed cabbage with apple sauce? No, they are served with tomato sauce :P Ukrainian borscht differs from Polish borscht - in Poland there is no weight, a kind of small dumplings "uszka" or "krokiet" or mashed potatoes are added to the food, but borscht without additives is an excellent drink for cold days
Good morning SurMikas! Hope all is well by you. Thank you for such a thorough comment here with so much clarification. Potato pancakes are your favorite?

@@tuesdaybingo I'm from south east Poland, namely Małopolska. You did a good job describing most national staples(though barszcz in Poland is usually served as strained, red veggie broth over some starch like dumplings or potatoes(what you described is known as barszcz ukraiński or ukrainian borscht)). I'd highly encourage any and everybody to venture out and try regional specialities like pyzy z gzikiem, maczanka krakowska,wędzona ryba, kiszka ziemniaczana or oscypek, depending where you end up.
Thanks for the material. It's good to see what others like about our national cuisine. Make a video about worst Polish food. You'll get tons of views (not necessarily thumbs up, thought). I think I need to intervene here: many popular recipes for Silesian dumplings (kluski śląskie) call for an egg, but don't add it. It makes the dumplings rubbery. Just add one part of potato starch to three parts of mashed potatoes (at room temperature) and knead it well. These are probably the simplest and the least messy dumplings in existence.
Hello, Sil86! Thank you for taking the time to write this in. I'm honestly not sure if there would be 10 foods to fill up a worst list. Everything was so good! Thank you for including your other recommendations as well!
Hello Maciej! Thank you for writing this in. I actually just made a Poland Food: Part II video and kebab are on there for sure! My experience in Poland wouldn't have been complete without the occasional post-bar crawl kebab. 🙌
@@tuesdaybingo Kielbasa polska is my favorite one but in true is not very common in Poland as it's much more expensive than other kinds. This sausage is not cooked like the most common types as it is completely raw but can be dried or smoked as well. I love all three versions. The adjective "raw" is usually (though not always the case) in the name of a sausage - kielbasa polska surowa.

Hi Golem. Thanks for writing in. We were SHOCKED that bigos didn't make the list. It's the national dish of Poland after all. Believe it or not, all the other foods listed were mentioned more times than bigos. It's almost hard to believe!
The Barszcz that you showed is referred in Poland as Ukrainian Barszcz - and it is popular. But the Nr. 1 Xmas and major family events soup beside Żurek is the Clear Barszcz (which we just call Barszcz) and it is served with "Uszka" which in polish means "ears" (due to it shape) a type of dumpling which is stuffed with eider meet or mushroom's and cabbage.
Hello again, Jakub! This is great! Im going to have to see if I can either find the clear barszcz or make it for Christmas this year. Do you know of any good recipes online?
I'm from Poland and never heard about "Starka". When it comes to sausages, the most popular is "Śląska" not "Polska". For me in TOP 10 should include "schabowy" and of course "bigos". Sauerkraut is used for bigos, but it deserves a separate entry. Regards!
@@annag4243 Cóż niebawem skończę 35 lat i wyobraź sobie, że nigdy w mojej obecności nikt z mojej rodziny, bliższych, czy dalszych znajomych nigdy nie pił, ba! nawet nie wspominał o czymś takim jak Starka. Będąc w barach, czy restauracjach, nie tylko w moim rodzinnym Poznaniu, ale także innych częściach kraju, nie spotkałem się by coś takiego serwowali. Dlatego wydaje mi się to mocno niszowym produktem, którego umieszczenie w TOP10 wyrobów, które należy spróbować będąc w Polsce jest strasznym nieporozumieniem. Pozdrawiam
Hello, kudson! Thank you so much for taking the time to write this in and for giving your suggestions. I was SHOCKED that bigos didn't make the list, especially since it's your Country's national dish. Where abouts in Poland are you from?
Thank you for your patience, as I had to put this in a translator and am not sure if it worked 100%. I was surprised about starka as well, as I've never heard of it either, nor could I find it at any restaurants when visiting. Based off the surveys we conducted, starka definitely stood up and won the number 10 spot!
so, for the polish perspective: 1. STARKA. that's just some antiquated piece. nobody drinks it, nobody buys it. it's not even available at most liqour shops. vodka is the first choice. 2. ŻUREK. eaten very rarely by most poles. usually for easter. it's just a hassle to make it and most of us are only gonna enjoy it at family gatherings where our moms and/or nanas prepare it. zupa pomidorowa (tomato soup) is the first choice. 3. PLACKI ZIEMNIACZANE. that's true. like 75% true. 4. KLUSKI ŚLĄSKIE. meh. nobody really makes it at home. we buy it at garmażerka (cheap hand-made food store) when we get bored of hating nazis. 5. KIEŁBASA. yeah, unholy grail of polish cuisine. firstly, homemade variant is only available countryside. secondly, factory thing tastes like shit. and this is exactly what we love to eat smothered in a ton of pre-packed spices and grilled for holidays. 6. VODKA. yup. 7. KAPUSTA KISZONA (sauerkraut). the fact that you didn't even translated that to polish means smth. it's not ours. that's german. and you what also is german????? yeah, we've been here before (still, it's pretty good). 8. GOŁĄBKI (literally means ''little pigeons"). yeah, i don't like them. period. if you don't make them the right way they taste horrible. that's why nobody orders them. 9. BARSZCZ. the variant you've presented isn't polish. it's more like ukrainian borstch. still, it's pretty good. also, the ''summer version'' you've mentioned is a completely different soup called CHŁODNIK. nevermind. 10. PIEROGI. true.
