Chocolate Babka

Recipe by: Nina

Reviews(3)

This recipe is the next best thing to a bakery babka! Although babkas are traditionally yeast-risen breads, this one is more similar to a sweet quick bread or cake.

Julia's pickle soup

Recipe by: yoolka

I know what you think - can't possibly be edible. Believe me - it is beautiful. This is a Polish dish, a soup made of sour cucumbers, or pickles. You can buy a jar of them thinly sliced in Polish shops but if there is none in your area you can just slice pickles. I usually just make the soup from the vegetables and that's it but you can throw a chicken stock cube in as well to make it more tasty if you want.

Kolaches

Recipe by: Michelle Beard

Reviews(5)

This is a basic recipe for the traditional Czech pastry. They can be made with a variety of fillings, but this one uses your favourite jam. My preference is for a good quality apricot preserve.

A quick and tasty salad all that is required is a little bit of elbow grease for the preparation. A healthy alternative to coleslaw or a side salad with fish, meat and sauces.

If you love liver sausage (Braunschweiger) you'll love this recipe. My mother used to make this for every family get together and it was always a hit. It is best served with rye bread.

These are pierogis filled with cottage cheese, boiled and usually eaten with a sour cream sauce and crispy bacon. This is an old family recipe, from relatives who were Russian Poles.
