channel-chasing before the noon news I happend on the show of ex-con Martha Stewart. her geuest chef Bill Telepan was making pierogies.
flashback to my childhood: Grandma Gildzen & my aunts making hundreds of them in the kitchen on Camden Ave in Lorain prior to Xmas dinner. those were stuffd with potato. sometimes with saurkraut. & Mom's favorite -- prune.
over the years I've had them in many places. Ukrainian Restaurant in NYC may have been closest to the family recipe. the spot with the most varities was easily Parma Piergoies -- a favorite of Bill Clinton.
Telepan used beet greens & cheese. & he servd them with harvest beets. lovely looking.
