Number Of Ingredients 6

Basic Pierogi
Two 3-pound heads green cabbage (outer leaves removed)
8 ounces room-temperature cream cheese
4 tablespoons melted unsalted butter
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
2 sticks unsalted butter

Steps:

  • Make the cabbage filling:Quarter and core cabbage. Working in batches, steam cabbage until very tender, 20 to 30 minutes. Drain; let cool. Working in small batches, place steamed cabbage in a thin kitchen towel, and squeeze out as much liquid as possible. Grind cabbage with the fine blade of a meat grinder. Stir in cream cheese and butter. Season with salt and pepper. For each pierogi, use 1 tablespoon plus 2 teaspoons filling.
  • Make the clarified butter:Melt butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Remove from heat, and let milk solids sink to bottom. Skim foam from surface. Carefully pour off clarified butter, leaving solids behind. Makes 1 cup.

I was disappointed with these pierogi. The dough was tough and the cabbage filling was dry. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

These pierogi were okay. The dough was a bit too thick for my taste, and the cabbage filling was a bit bland. I think I would have enjoyed them more if I had added more spices to the filling.
