Hi, people, I am from Czech. We have a gorgeous pie-like meal called “klobásník”, which is mixture of minced meat with onion, garlic, egg and spices, all rolled into a long or round shapes, wrapped in a delicious dough and baked. We eat it mainly during Easter. I am surprised that they do not mention it on Polish side of border, it is just an hour and half from my place. Who would like to see how it looks like, here is a link: http://www.toprecepty.cz/recept/4475-klobasniky/

My friends father (sic!) would make that baked pieróg (not pierogi but one huge one per person or two) on Sundays usually with meat or veggies inside… delicious… :) it is more like a pie just not baked in a form. It looked a bit like this: http://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cornish_pasty And i make something like that made of ‘pizza pastry’ looking a bit like that pyrih (in construction) so as you can see there are people in Poland who make pies :) though you can’t really get them in shops…

Internet fraud squad again.

We note there has been no correction to the labelling of picture nr 3 (which describes a Steak and Kidney Pudding as a pie) and as such this web log topic has been reported to the European Internet Regulatory Authority for telling porkies!

The pie is something that is completely lacking in Polish cuisine. People are often befuddled when I try to explain it to them, to which they just reply, “Oh, it’s a tart.”
As for that apple pie comment: I don’t get it.
