I am certain that pronunciation regardless I am 😊 sure that the meal your family makes is unbelievable because pronunciations do vary. Even the dish pasta fazool some people just qualify I guess you would say the proper name pasta fagioli but either way I am certain the food prepare to your home is fantastic
I grew up on this, I’m Russian on my Dads side, but my Irish Mom made a version of this called cabbage and bows. We used bow tie pasta,ham,cabbage, onion all cooked in butter. So good !!!
Looks great! I'm Slovak, and had egg noodles and cabbage often growing up, and I make it occasionally. No meat, just a little sour cream mixed in, often along side grilled kielbasa. We did call it halusky, but true halusky is spaetzle-like dumplings made from potatoes. The use of egg noodles makes it Americanized halusky, kind of like chow mein is Americanized Chinese food. No matter, it is great no matter what!
This is a wonderful post you have added and although I like the meat-free alternative. Do not get me wrong I love meat. But I also wanted to say that your idea of using kabasi would be the perfect accompaniment for this! I am a kabasi maniac and love it! I can eat the entire ring of kielbasa by myself. I am going to make this next time and have kielbasa on the side
I made this tonight for the first time and served it with roasted chicken. Next time I’ll use spicy Italian sausage though. So so good and I added caraway seeds. They made it extra special. Definitely a great Saturday night easy dinner.
I like to cook the onion and sausage together to almost carnelize the onion. Then in goes the cabbage till it wilts down. Then in goes in the noodles. Onions and sausage were cooked in butter. I’ve found no matter whichever order you cook it, it’s all delicious. Sauerkraut is new to me so definitely going to try it.
i think the kraut will work, since the acidity will cut through the fattiness in a complementary way. i made haluski for the first time the other day and dashed some balsamic vinegar on it--it was good!
Thanks so much! My dad passed away almost 5 years ago, he used to make this & I loved it! So now I know how to make it, I’ll enjoy eating it again I’ll think of my Dad. 😇✝️🍴
Michele Felton sorry to hear that...mine passed 11 years ago. The cool thing about food is that each recipe I make has some emotional attachment and memory hooked to it. I hope it works out great for you. Many of mine connect with loved one that have passed on...it is not sad but heart warming and connects emotionally to that person. Let me know how it turn out ...and not just the recipe. Be well
Mike Oski's Kitchen Thanks for your reply Mike and I am sorry to hear about your father’s passing as well. We will see them again one day in heaven, that’s what gives me hope. By the way, my Haluski turned out pretty darn good, I’m only saying that because my husband loved it! Mission accomplished! I shared your recipe on Facebook and my sister made it too. I told everyone that I explored all the recipes for this dish & that yours was my favorite and that’s why I shared it. Keep up what you’re doing because you’re doing a great job! I’m going to look for more recipes from you soon. 🍴 Sincerely, Michele Felton from Owosso Michigan
Michele Felton thanks so much. I am very happy that it turned out well for you and your hubby. Thanks also For the complement. I do this, not only because I love to cook, but my true labor of love is to encourage others to cook and ultimately bring families back around the table and even cook together. We need that so much in our world...so old fashion values! I always say, “if you cook it, they will come!”. Just so you know, coming this Sunday will be Polish City Chicken (a favorite of mine). Be well and stay safe and thanks again!
Great video and great recipe. I grew up in southwestern PA in a Slovak home. Mom usually made this during Lent so no meat--just cabbage and noodles. I make it often but plan to up my game with your recipe. Thanks for sharing.
The sauerkraut was a wonderful addition to this dish. I'm craving this now but I don't have fresh cabbage I have season can cabbage. I think it's going to be just as good.
I make fried cabbage with bacon and onion all the time as a side dish this is a whole new kick MY Daughter loves fried cabbage i think she would love This
Thanks again, Mike. Every now and then we get in the mood for haluski. I always watch your video while cooking it. That way I know the proper time to hydrate. Although, I must take bigger sips than you. It takes me a six pack to finish the haluski but, the recipe is awesome. Also, you're correct about it being great the next day. Thank you again for walking me through another great Polish recipe. 👍
I'm from your neck of the woods too, Kulpmont. I cook all these Polish dishes. My Ukrainian mom made them & I'm continuing the tradition of Polish cooking. Love watching your videos.
@@mikeoskiskitchen3487 what was nice is everyone in the house (myself, my daughter, her partner and his 13 year old son) loved it! That’s very unusual for our household!! Thanks again! Think I’m going to try a few more of your recipes! ❤️🥰💐
Oh gosh we did too. We lived in a world were you ate everything you out on your plate, no excuses! When it was Haluski, I’d pile it on because it was never going to be a problem. 👍👍👍👍
Brother, you hit home, I'm German, Italian and polish.....you had every ingredient of my ancestors in this dish, May God bless you and always keep you safe ! If you put a south Jersey accent in there....lol, I'd be lost for words.
Thanks much! I’ll I got is the North-Central PA accent - lol! I am so glad you enjoy this. Thank you Brother...more to come. Check out the Cabbage Soup posted today. Your Polish and German taste buds will dance. Be well and blessed!
Brook Anderson it is perfect any time of year. Goes great will cookouts, potlucks and tailgates. Or just on your kitchen table. Best to you and let me know how it comes out! Be well
I can’t wait to try this. I love cabbage and onions. They are so good together. Of course I won’t be serving perogies the night I make this dish. That would lead to a carb coma🤣
You are killing me!! That looks so darn good! I had a truck drive through my car 25 yrs ago. I have had fusions in my back and the pain kills me. I love to cook but it’s so difficult now! I am going to try this!
I like cabbage bacon and shells. Simple and delish. I like klobàsy with sauerkraut , potatoes and tomato sauce, sometimes prunes. (Slovak and Romanian parents) My grandma made her own dumpling type noodles because she was from Slovakia.
I've often made a dish like this only instead of egg noodles, potato, and no sauerkraut, no bacon......Good Lord, forgive me, I was blind, but now I see! Gonna make it this weekend. Also turned my son onto this recipe and your youtube channel.
This sounds delicious! First I've seen adding sauerkraut and I love that idea! Thanks for putting the recipe on Google Drive - so much easier to share!!!
@@mikeoskiskitchen3487 My lazanki came out great, thanks to you, and I served it for Christmas. I did the kielbasa the way you did, cut it in chunks and sauteed it. I cut the cabbage the way you showed and I sauteed it with the onions. Did not use bacon but I used a whole stick of butter. Mind you, everything was doubled, 2 lb of noodles, two packs of kielbasa, a whole head of cabbage, two large onions, a giant jar of sauerkraut. Thanks for a wonderful recipe. My whole family loved it, and I'll be making it again and again. God bless you, hope you have a healthy and joyous New Year!!!
Got this recipe from my mom. Instead of all the butter and grease make a simple white sauce. Then cheddarize it. Omgggg The bacon would make an amazing addition
Just made a slightly different version tonight but as I sat down to eat… I find you… so next time ..I try your version…minus the beer of course…😂😂😂… I am polish /chech/Yugo…..so ate a lot of polish dishes some I remember and make but some … no recipes kept and my folks are deceased…so no luck on some of them ….but I’m a new sub to your channel & will watch more in my free time….I’m trying to find a dish my mom made i remember as a child using fresh pumpkin squash cut up in chunks ….milk….spaghetti noodles …..salt….not sure what it was called but damn near the PERFECT FOOD…best taste EVER…like a pumpkin stew 🤷♀️🤷♀️maybe just some OLD COUNTRY DISH..🤷♀️🤷♀️not sure…ill keep searching…TY MIKE.. was fun sharing in your kitchen…&&& yes… okay to make a mess….YOUR COOKING…😅😅😅
My mother always made just the fried cabbage and noodles. And on occasion she would add leftover baked smoked ham or cut up a smoked ham hock for the added smoky flavor.
Never had it with bacon or sauerkraut. I made something like that a few days ago. I had no noodles, but I did have potatoes. I fried them and used them in replacement of the noodles. I almost put some bacon in it. In fact, I'm not sure why I changed my mind. I will make this and my comment is, it's delicious. I'm going to try your way. I am from a Slovak family whose dad used to ask my mum to make it for him. Can't think of any foods, Slovak or Polish, I have tried that I don't like Probably are some, though. Go Steelers!
The original Russian version (1849) had no meat in it. Just cabbage, onion & egg noodles. Over the years it's changed Southerners cook cabbage with bacon, onion, green pepper & kielbasa Are you near Pittsburgh? I'm Russian+ Slovak as well
Cody Lee where in PA? I am from north central (Mount Carmel/Shamokin). give this recipe a shot...it is pretty easy and just enjoy the process. Let me know how it turns out. I know you will love it!
@@mikeoskiskitchen3487 I lived in NEPA for a year ! Specifically Wilkes-Barre, which is near Scranton. I remember hearing about the Polish dishes. I specifically remember how popular pierogies were lol I worked at a Weis Markets store.
Cody Lee I know that area well. It is only about 40 mins north of where I grew up. Take a look at the Pierogi video and give them a shot. I have folks, who have never made them before, say they tried the recipe and turned out great. Pretty easy once you get going. Be well...
A fellow yinzer myself, happy to run across your page Mike! Love the polka music. I am going to try this recipe with hot dogs because that is all I have during this pandemic. Thanks buddy and go Steelers!
Stephanie Blinkhorn awesome Stephanie! Let me know how it comes out. Hot dogs would be a good substitute! This Sunday I’m rolling out some Polish City Chicken. Feel free to browse and make any of the other recipes on the channel. Most are fun and easy and all are tasty! And yes...Here we go...! Love my Steelers
Hey Mike, you should get a cast iron wok. Way bigger area to stir fry in. Believe me, it’s you’ll love one. Thanks for the recipe, I will make this for dinner. I have never tried this dish before, wish me luck 😉
Mike, made the haluski, Couldn't get the Sausage so I used the Rookwurst ... I will be making this again I also used spaetzle which made it even more delicious.. Thanks I love good old fashion recipes from Europe as my grandmother was German so there are a lot of dishes which come out of their...
I make this last week and liked it. The only thing is I decided to cook up a whole package of bacon to have for BLT later and it resulted in a lot more grease. Seeing as I did not use a cast iron pan my pan held a lot of the grease and it did not cook down like yours. So when I added the butter it was really too much. I think depending on how much grease you have left use that to judge how much butter you add.
Susan Fenner I enjoy a beer (or a few) while cooking even when not making videos. Some like wine but not me...beer all the way. Since cooking is my get away...why not take beer with me (also it adds courage to try things and not fear of messing it up...if I do, I laugh and just call Domino’s - true story...lol!)
I have looked for this recipe everywhere. Thank you for this. We made it with just plain flour and water dumplings and sauerkraut. I wanted to see how other people made it. Thanks! Liked and subbed.
My grandmother used to make this, but she didn't put in the bacon or kielbasa. I'm going to try this, but one suggestion. If after you've deglazed the pan, if you poured out the sauce in the bottom, turned the heat down to low, added the cabbage/onion mixture, then carefully pour your sauce over the cabbage, the sauce will coat the mixture, then turn the heat back up, and your first fold will be less messy. Especially if you're cooking on a gas stove.
Hey I know what to get Chef Mikey for Christmas a bigger cast iron pan 😂 Looks delish my Irish mom made this same thing but used sliced boiled potatoes
Being from a Canadian back ground we ate alot of stuff like ground meat stuffing and many different meat pies . But being from Pittsburgh the polish ethnic food has always been a part of life living in this area . find it strange that i crave the ethnic foods i was raised in living in the Pittsburgh area .
Hello, Thank you for your video..What would you suggest as a 3 course Polish Meal please? (as simple as possible please..I am no Masterchef) I wish to surprise my Polish boyfriend :)
Food dzien dobry! Sorry you are feeling home sick but I hope you give this one (and some others) a shot. That is why I’m here to help bring good foods and and families back around the table. Oh yes...Here we go...Be well!
Hi Mike! My first visit here, so maybe I didn’t hear you right? Did you say your actual last name is OLSZEWSKI? That’s my maiden name and I’m from Greenpoint, Brooklyn….also known as Little Poland. Greenpoint is famous for its Polish butchers and at Easter time, the lines to get into the “better” butcher shops literally went around the block. I live in Florida now, so it’s slim pickings’ for good pizza, kielbasi and pierogi, and almost any decent Italian foods. Thank goodness y I know my way around a kitchen or we would’ve starved….lol! Jim laughing but it’s the truth!!
Mike I think it's wonderful. In the southern states (Ga) we make this dish very much like yours. Cabbage goes so well with lots of things, I can understand why during the depression cabbage was popular. So because I did not know the history of haluski and only knew it as cabbage with sausage I looked it up and found two links if allowed. First it was more broad than people believe and did have meat in it.... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cabbage_stew Second was the name actually implies it was describing the noodles made from flour batter and potatoes. Interesting history... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halu%C5%A1ky Again, I like your dish! I think cabbage and carrots were the first dish I ever tried to eat cabbage, since then I've cooked it several ways and never disappointed.
If you do that you will be making a whole differnt dish. Just make braised cabbage apple slaw. Red cabbage sliced thin. Granny Smith apples. Bacon and onion. Use some applencider vinegar brown sugar and a cinnamon stick some apple juice. Cook 1 lb (bacon reserve)use bacon fat to cook your sliced onion then when they turn transparent add your cabbage and vinegar and some apple juice and cinnystick. Let that cook down until aldente then add sliced apples and Brown sugar. Braise until all cooked. Serve hot garnish with chopped bacon. The dish should have a bit of crunch. Use a nice pig pan with a lid keep it covered while cooking and stir frequently low heat. I love this dish it is great for the holidays. And it goes well with pork also.
Also the minute you said you include saurkraut , you had my interest. I’ve looked at alit if on line Haluski recipes yours us only one with saurkraut I love it mixed with cabbage
Lisa P so glad you have arrived! Let’s do this. Please let me know how the haluski turns out. My family, especially my kids, would eat this every week. Enjoy the cooking process, have a drink or so, and have fun.
Tony B that would surely do it. I’d have to give that a shot next batch but for me...I kind of like the sauerkraut bite. Thanks for the tip and I’ll give it shot. I just like hearing about and trying various ideas. Be well!
There so so many versions and all have their twists. All are so good and that is the beauty of cooking. I’m from Central Pa myself. Be well and blessed!
cakebythelake that is a great idea! I’m always chasing that cutting board around the counter. Thank you and I am happy you liked the Pierogi Toasty. Be well!
To get onion smell off hands, simply wash hands with dish soap and a stainless steel sink while rubbing soap and water rub hands and fingers totally on stainless steel works like a charm no odor
Hi David - sorry for the delay. Slipped away for a few days. I just use a simple 6-8 blade - typically called a Chef’s Knife and just slice and chop the heck out of it
Did it! For non pork eaters. Made a pound of stewing beef and onions before in the instant pot to save time. Cooked noodles separately-baked it all together for a while to meld the flavours. Worked great!!
Its halushski. Very ez. You need sour kraut sqeezed light and regular cabbage. Chappit it up plus all your meets, add your spices salt and pepper fry everything and now you have a brand new pair of gadja DOBR'E....
Can't wait to make this dish!
My parents called it Haluska , they were off a vowel 😅 love this ❤❤❤
I am certain that pronunciation regardless I am 😊 sure that the meal your family makes is unbelievable because pronunciations do vary.
Even the dish pasta fazool some people just qualify I guess you would say the proper name pasta fagioli but either way I am certain the food prepare to your home is fantastic
I grew up on this, I’m Russian on my Dads side, but my Irish Mom made a version of this called cabbage and bows. We used bow tie pasta,ham,cabbage, onion all cooked in butter. So good !!!
Well my name is Russian. But Im A Scottish American. Im thinking of doing it With Bacon, Sauerkraut, Brussels Sprouts, Onions, lil Garlic chopped,

Oh yes...it is great no matter what. When I'm having a tough day, nothing is better is making a batch of this wonderful comfort food
Thanks I will look for that recipe
This is a wonderful post you have added and although I like the meat-free alternative. Do not get me wrong I love meat. But I also wanted to say that your idea of using kabasi would be the perfect accompaniment for this! I am a kabasi maniac and love it! I can eat the entire ring of kielbasa by myself. I am going to make this next time and have kielbasa on the side
I made this tonight for the first time and served it with roasted chicken. Next time I’ll use spicy Italian sausage though. So so good and I added caraway seeds. They made it extra special. Definitely a great Saturday night easy dinner.
So glad to hear it turned out well for you. Also, it’s your kitchen…you are the chef do what you do!

I subscribed to your channel even though you are a steelers fan LOL. Thanks for sharing this recipe. Keep going Mike.
Thanks so much for subscribing. Having a blast but true to my Steelers...lol! Enjoy!
A fellow yinzer myself, happy to run across your page Mike! Love the polka music. I am going to try this recipe with hot dogs because that is all I have during this pandemic. Thanks buddy and go Steelers!
Stephanie Blinkhorn awesome Stephanie! Let me know how it comes out. Hot dogs would be a good substitute! This Sunday I’m rolling out some Polish City Chicken. Feel free to browse and make any of the other recipes on the channel. Most are fun and easy and all are tasty! And yes...Here we go...! Love my Steelers
Hey Mike, you should get a cast iron wok. Way bigger area to stir fry in. Believe me, it’s you’ll love one. Thanks for the recipe, I will make this for dinner. I have never tried this dish before, wish me luck 😉
Hearty homemade meal😊😊
Yes …it is the best
Mike, made the haluski, Couldn't get the Sausage so I used the Rookwurst ... I will be making this again I also used spaetzle which made it even more delicious.. Thanks I love good old fashion recipes from Europe as my grandmother was German so there are a lot of dishes which come out of their...
Love Hulaska. Will try your recipe 😋
Thank you. I know you’ll like it. Let me know how it turns out for you. Enjoy!
Excellent recipe!!
Wonderful!
Many thanks! Give this one a shot. It is that good!
I make this last week and liked it. The only thing is I decided to cook up a whole package of bacon to have for BLT later and it resulted in a lot more grease. Seeing as I did not use a cast iron pan my pan held a lot of the grease and it did not cook down like yours. So when I added the butter it was really too much. I think depending on how much grease you have left use that to judge how much butter you add.
You either save the bacon grease or only cook half the package.
During the depression this dish was made meatless
That makes perfect sense. I certainly works well without any meat as well.
I love this dish. That beer looks so good. I don't usually drink when I cook, but I think I may start. Yum!
Susan Fenner I enjoy a beer (or a few) while cooking even when not making videos. Some like wine but not me...beer all the way. Since cooking is my get away...why not take beer with me (also it adds courage to try things and not fear of messing it up...if I do, I laugh and just call Domino’s - true story...lol!)
I have looked for this recipe everywhere. Thank you for this. We made it with just plain flour and water dumplings and sauerkraut. I wanted to see how other people made it. Thanks! Liked and subbed.
I am so glad you found your way here and I hope you all enjoy it. Let me know how it comes out for you all. Enjoy
@@mikeoskiskitchen3487 What part of the country are you in?
@@momstheword11 I grew up in Central PA...now in central Ohio
Looks great, gotta make. 👍
My grandmother used to make this, but she didn't put in the bacon or kielbasa. I'm going to try this, but one suggestion. If after you've deglazed the pan, if you poured out the sauce in the bottom, turned the heat down to low, added the cabbage/onion mixture, then carefully pour your sauce over the cabbage, the sauce will coat the mixture, then turn the heat back up, and your first fold will be less messy. Especially if you're cooking on a gas stove.
Thanks for the guidance Walt. I’ll give that a shot. Always open to learning new techniques. Be well...
Finally a recipe close to mine ! I call it heart attack haluski
Hey I know what to get Chef Mikey for Christmas a bigger cast iron pan 😂 Looks delish my Irish mom made this same thing but used sliced boiled potatoes
The struggle is real😂
Mmmm I say this would be good with a pan of homemade corn bread. Yum!
Being from a Canadian back ground we ate alot of stuff like ground meat stuffing and many different meat pies . But being from Pittsburgh the polish ethnic food has always been a part of life living in this area . find it strange that i crave the ethnic foods i was raised in living in the Pittsburgh area .
I want you all to know that it was so good, and I plan on making it as part of my meals from now on.
So happy to hear this!
It's good, cheaper meal . Lots of butter & black pepper 👍 😋 👍
I love that you laugh every time you say bacon grease lol
Lol! I laugh because every time I say it I can head hear some of the healthy food folks head explode.
Mr.Oski's, Could you use a Dush oven to prepare the kielbasa, beacon, cabbage instead of a skillet?
You absolutely can...I just favor a cast iron skillet (old habit die hard) 😉 Just follow the order and Dutch Oven will work great
Hello, Thank you for your video..What would you suggest as a 3 course Polish Meal please? (as simple as possible please..I am no Masterchef) I wish to surprise my Polish boyfriend :)
Mike, yuk shey mas from Atanta. Ahh your making me homesick. Go Steelers!
Food dzien dobry! Sorry you are feeling home sick but I hope you give this one (and some others) a shot. That is why I’m here to help bring good foods and and families back around the table. Oh yes...Here we go...Be well!
Hi Mike! My first visit here, so maybe I didn’t hear you right? Did you say your actual last name is OLSZEWSKI? That’s my maiden name and I’m from Greenpoint, Brooklyn….also known as Little Poland. Greenpoint is famous for its Polish butchers and at Easter time, the lines to get into the “better” butcher shops literally went around the block. I live in Florida now, so it’s slim pickings’ for good pizza, kielbasi and pierogi, and almost any decent Italian foods. Thank goodness y I know my way around a kitchen or we would’ve starved….lol! Jim laughing but it’s the truth!!
As we go to any fund raiser selling haluski, we buy as its so good.
Not bad for a 'Stillers' fan.
I top it with sour cream...delicious!
Sounds great!
Mike I think it's wonderful. In the southern states (Ga) we make this dish very much like yours. Cabbage goes so well with lots of things, I can understand why during the depression cabbage was popular. So because I did not know the history of haluski and only knew it as cabbage with sausage I looked it up and found two links if allowed. First it was more broad than people believe and did have meat in it.... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cabbage_stew
Second was the name actually implies it was describing the noodles made from flour batter and potatoes. Interesting history... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halu%C5%A1ky
Again, I like your dish!
I think cabbage and carrots were the first dish I ever tried to eat cabbage, since then I've cooked it several ways and never disappointed.
Pot a small wet towel under your cutting board. It will not slip. Looks good. I will be cooking it. Thank you.
Great idea!! Thanks for that. I hope you enjoy!
I’m not Polish but I love the music
I think I might put in some diced green apple 🤷♀️
Thanks sounds interesting and worth a try.
If you do that you will be making a whole differnt dish. Just make braised cabbage apple slaw. Red cabbage sliced thin. Granny Smith apples. Bacon and onion. Use some applencider vinegar brown sugar and a cinnamon stick some apple juice. Cook 1 lb (bacon reserve)use bacon fat to cook your sliced onion then when they turn transparent add your cabbage and vinegar and some apple juice and cinnystick. Let that cook down until aldente then add sliced apples and Brown sugar. Braise until all cooked. Serve hot garnish with chopped bacon. The dish should have a bit of crunch. Use a nice pig pan with a lid keep it covered while cooking and stir frequently low heat. I love this dish it is great for the holidays. And it goes well with pork also.
Also the minute you said you include saurkraut , you had my interest. I’ve looked at alit if on line Haluski recipes yours us only one with saurkraut I love it mixed with cabbage
Same here! Sauerkraut makes everything better. I bet it gives haluski a nice pop!
I am making this! How wonderful I stumbled into your channel.
Dana Moore - Hi Dana thanks so much for subscribing. I know you’ll just love the Haluski. Let me know how it turns out. Be well and take good care!
Lisa P so glad you have arrived! Let’s do this. Please let me know how the haluski turns out. My family, especially my kids, would eat this every week. Enjoy the cooking process, have a drink or so, and have fun.
I’m polish and my grandparents put brown gravy in to stop the sauerkraut bite
Tony B that would surely do it. I’d have to give that a shot next batch but for me...I kind of like the sauerkraut bite. Thanks for the tip and I’ll give it shot. I just like hearing about and trying various ideas. Be well!
Is there a flavor reason for using no yolk egg noodles or is there another reason?
There’s really no reason at all. Just a preference. As long as use egg noodles, I think everything is good to go.
what do you serve this with for a meal
Well, this is a pretty heavy meal to start with so pretty much nothing. Enjoy it as it is.
@@mikeoskiskitchen3487 I am thinking a salad and some corn on the cob and cornbread
or just sliced tomatoes and corn on cob and cornbread
Not that I know, but what more doo yoo.need? Yummn
@@dianeketonen5702 I have now fixed this many times and my Daughter even makes it we both just love it with corn bread
Where you get the beer
My Pennsylvania-born (Slovak) grandmother called it “haluski,” too. Her version didn’t use meat or sauerkraut.
There so so many versions and all have their twists. All are so good and that is the beauty of cooking. I’m from Central Pa myself. Be well and blessed!
@figmo397, my mother 👩 never used meat 🍖 or sauerkraut either. I’m going to try it with bacon 🥓.
Put a wet paper towel under your cutting board, and it won't move around. Loved your Pierogi Toastie recipe.
cakebythelake that is a great idea! I’m always chasing that cutting board around the counter. Thank you and I am happy you liked the Pierogi Toasty. Be well!
To get onion smell off hands, simply wash hands with dish soap and a stainless steel sink while rubbing soap and water rub hands and fingers totally on stainless steel works like a charm no odor
I made this was yummy with a scoop of sour cream 😋
connie spiteri that is great to hear! So glad it turned out well! It is a Keeper for sure
Doesnt anyone use salt pork anymore instead of oil? So much flavor!!
What knife did you use to cut the cabbage ?
Hi David - sorry for the delay. Slipped away for a few days. I just use a simple 6-8 blade - typically called a Chef’s Knife and just slice and chop the heck out of it
412 Steelers YINZER here!
Ya gotta love it. Steeler nation is everywhere. No matter what!
POLSKA!!!
How to do this w stewing beef?? 😊
Good question…it should work just replacing the kielbasa with the stew meat. However, I like the taste the kielbasa brings in.
Did it! For non pork eaters. Made a pound of stewing beef and onions before in the instant pot to save time. Cooked noodles separately-baked it all together for a while to meld the flavours. Worked great!!
Its halushski. Very ez. You need sour kraut sqeezed light and regular cabbage. Chappit it up plus all your meets, add your spices salt and pepper fry everything and now you have a brand new pair of gadja DOBR'E....
In my family we sed sauerkraut rather than cabbage, and of course it was usually meatless.
Why the can of drained kraut?
