I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my kasha varnishkes turned out mushy. I think I might have overcooked the kasha.

This recipe was a bit too salty for my taste. I would recommend using less salt than the recipe calls for.

I've made this recipe several times and it's always a crowd-pleaser! I like to add a bit of chopped parsley to the top before serving.

This was my first time making kasha varnishkes and it turned out great! I used a mixture of kasha and barley and it was delicious.

This recipe was a bit bland for my taste. I added some additional salt and pepper to the kasha and it helped a lot.

I've been making this recipe for years and it's always a hit! I like to add a little bit of chopped onion to the kasha while it's cooking for extra flavor.
