Last week I was fortunate to join some girlfriends to learn how to make blueberry pierogi. It was so much fun and also a lot of work. But, definitely well worth it! We followed my friend Caitlin's mother-in-law's recipe which does not include exact measurements. We started with a bunch of flour and added in a sprinkle of salt, a bit of oil, and hot water until the dough reached the correct consistency. Then we rolled out the dough, cut our circles and filled them with delicious blueberry filling. From there, we boiled the pierogis and then got to enjoy a few after all of our hard work! I am looking forward to making other kinds in the future. Tom has put in a request for his favorite kind....ruskie (potato and cheese). Since they are so much work I am thinking that this will be a once or twice a year activity.
A huge thank you to Caitlin for teaching us Pierogi Making 101!
