How to Make Perogies

This week I learned how to make Perogies.

My Great-Grandmother was a Ukrainian - that is where Perogies come from.  She taught my Grandmother, and my Grandmother taught my mom.  Now my mom taught me how to make Perogies - it's a family tradition!

First we make a lot of Mashed potatoes with cheese.

Then we make a dough, rolled out nice and flat and cut in to squares.

Then we take each square, flatten it and stretch it a bit and put a spoonful of mashed potatoes in the middle.  Then take opposite corners and fold them over the potatoes and squeeze the edges together so they stick together.

Then we add flower so they don't stick together and put them together in a pan until they are ready to boil.

The final step is to boil them in a big pot.  This cooks them.

Then eat them with a little butter and bacon.  I love bacon and I love Perogies, so this is one of my favorite meals.

Mmmm, delicious.
