Goomba, have you ever eaten one of Barbara's pierogis? I have and I
wish I had not, because I have not eaten any since then that I really
liked. I have had frozen ones, fresh ones from restaurants and home
made ones as well. Not one of them had the kind of dough that Barbara
makes, thin, with no taste of raw flour and so delicate, it melts in
your mouth.
Two weeks ago, while waiting to pick up Marcel at the hospital after a
cataract operation, I had a couple of hours to kill and being in a
Polish neighborhood, I went into a small ethnic restaurant, Little
Poland on Second Avenue and ordered potato pierogis. I ate one of the
eight on the plate and at the urging of the waitress, I brought the
rest home......where they ended up in the garbage. The dough tasted
more like armor protecting the filling than the delicate pasta that I
had hoped for and seemed to remember from pre-Barbara days. (
As for her home made noodles, you have to talk to Marcel about them!!!
