I like sauerkraut on sandwiches, but never really ate it on its own like that. What sort of flavours does it go with?
Lečo.
>>8717065
Meats, especially pork, sausage, chicken, savory dumplings, eggs. You can have it on its own. It goes amazingly well with apples and caraway seed. I could eat it with anything.
Not Slavic. But Zacusca. Fuck I love that shit

>It goes amazingly well with apples
Wow, that's pretty surprising. I was going to pick up sausages tomorrow, so maybe I'll make them with sauerkraut.
>>8717087
My grandmother used to grate apple, potato and onion, and caraway into sauerkraut when she prepared it. It works pretty well.
>>8717076
All their neighbors are Slavs, and zacuscă is pretty fucking great. I'll allow it.
>>8716616
I used to hate it, but I'd love some hot tafche grafche (?) right now.
Why does 80% of it look like mud?
>>8717030
That one is shitty, desu.
It's basically inedible as is and only gets some sort of flavour when you douse it in sugar... and at that point, you might as well simply make something better of the sugar.
Use some jam (and possibly grounded nuts) instead. Much better than poppy seeds.

Pelmeni.
I never picked up polish, 12 year old little shit I was when she died. That said, a lot of stuffed peppers, sauerkraut and kielbasa was common, potato pancakes were a favorite of mine, most striking was pickle stew. She also make some fucking amazing pizzelles.
At least I found the deli she used to get kabanos at. Fucking love me some kobanos and Krowki Milanowskie.

Step one: cook the pasta
Step two: throw the contents of an astray on top
Wa la
My grandma used to salt everything. Eggs, tomatoes, pickles, beets, everything. I've never matched her pickling.
I miss her :(
>>8717099
lutenitsa, the bulgarian one, is better i think. especially the one with a lot of aubergines
>>8717648
Don't forget cheese.
My great-great grandfather was a first-generation Polish immigrant-- shortened his last name to "Kozdra" to help people spell and say it in America.
He must've had similar feelings about Polish food, because no on in my family has ever made any of this stuff, save for stuffed cabbage. So disappointing.
>>8717326
Great taste. I usually helped my grandmother make them.
>>8716616
Vatrushkis. They're a type of pastry with some tvorog in it.
>>8716657

Absolutely disgusting. It's the worst parts of German cuisine and generic Slav dumplings combined in one embarrassing culinary abomination.

I ate this in Slovakia - breddy gud.

Because they never in history obtained the wealth of the US and others. Think about how rich we are - even in the poor can afford Big Macs.

Fucking this. Lighting is everything. Pretty much any pic taken with flash is absolute garbage.

Look up a recipe for a nice crockpot sauerkraut. My grandmother throws in bay leaves and black pepper and leaves it cooking for hours so it caramelizes; it ends up a toasty brown.

Get apiece of rye bread, toast but do not burn it. Put in in a plastic container with some black currents and raisin then fill it up with water and some yeast.
>>8716616

The grandmother o my gf came from Hungaryto germany as a young women during ww2 she cook up the most amazing stuff with little to no ingredients. She was the definition of a baba. Headscarf and everything. Shed cook this stuff up. Also butternoodels with walnut, langos and other poor people food. I love Hungarian food because of this old baba gotta hab sie selig.

Ciorbă (this one is belly ciorbă, or ciorbă de burtă)
Baba lived in a time of internment so lawn clippings boiled with a brown paper bag that once had a loaf of bread stored inside makes a wonderful soup after boiling for an hour.

this stuff is master tier Slav food for when you have nothing and gotta feed the kids in the middle of winter
>>8718769
Culturally, the cuisine of Eastern Europe is not segregated
You can go to a Slavic-speaking country and find popular food that is technically Hungarian, German, or Ashkenazi
>>8724024
česneková polívka
Garlic soup. gotta include the cheese, ham, and croutons
how the FUCK has no one posted borscht? it is the quintessential slavstew...
also, friendly reminder that there are dozens of variations/forms of guláš
>>8724028
Koprovka: an omáčka (thick sauce, similar in consistency to gravy, that's cream-based) made with dill
usually served with potatoes or knedlíky (the thick, breadloaf dumplings) and eggs or meat
>>8724040
koláče
small ringed pastries with different fillings in the central pit
popular fillings are fruit, tvaroh (type of cheese similar to ricotta, cottage cheese), and poppy seed (not just the seeds - its processed into a sweet filling [my fav])

Bábovka/babka: ringed yeast cake

Even when it's not pretty to look at, this stuff is almost always delicious. So many flavors combined without losing identity.
Never have been able to make halušky like my grandma could, that shit with cabbage and a shitload of butter, salt and pepper is amazing cold weather food, but I don't know anyone outside of my family that likes it.
Also I remember as a kid on Easter we would have this thing that was basically cold sausage, ham and hard boiled eggs but I can remember the name of it, I think it sounded like "sea-dock" or something like that.
>>8716616
The women. That's it.
it's funny to me because baba means "dad" in lebanon
>>8724085
looks like shitty dumplings that were left out for a day
>>8716968
Sarmale
>>8723016
Fuck yeah sarma, only better dish is čufti
>>8720841
I guess because of the winters. A lot of the food is meat, potatoes and grain which can be stored through bad winters, so its mostly drab colours, minus that red/purple beetroot dish.
ITT subhuman food
>>8724161
Wow so edgy!
Ovocné knedlíky are the best.
