Pierogi Mushroom Filling Preparation
Tradition is to use Polish Mushrooms, or as those of you familiar critters, Polish Gold – they are VERY expensive, and often VERY hard to come by. I use a combination of Shitake (sp) and button mushrooms. Soak Shitake mushrooms in warm water for atleast an hour. Chop 1 lb button mushrooms roughly and 1/2 medium onion and saute in butter until mushrooms cook down. Chop Shitake mushrooms fine and add mushrooms AND WATER THEY HAVE BEEN SOAKING IN to pan & simmer 5-6 min, until liquid starts to evaporate. Salt & pepper lightly. (This holds nicely in the refrigerator – if you make the mushrooms the day before you make the pierogis, they will absorb more flavor from the cooking liquid – or so it seems, but I”m not a chemist). When filling pierogi”s, squeeze liquid from mushrooms – if filling is too moist it will run out of the dough. Now, when my wife and I make them I also make mashed potatoes, and let them cool a little. Then I get some sharp cheddar cheese and cut it into very small pieces and add it and a little dill, salt, and pepper to the potatoes. This makes a wonderful stuffing as well.
