Cottage Ham – a classic of Polish smokehouses
Cottage ham is prepared from pork neck, carefully selected by the butcher. This naturally marbled meat remains juicy and full of flavor after processing. Gentle smoking with wood gives it an aroma known from traditional Polish smokehouses. It is perfect served cold – as part of sandwiches or a charcuterie board – but also hot, served with potatoes and sauerkraut.
Piast Sausage – the heart of Polish cuisine
Sausage is undoubtedly one of the most important symbols of Polish cuisine. Piast Sausage is made from fresh, medium-ground pork, seasoned according to a proven recipe. Stuffed into natural casings and smoked over a real hardwood fire, it gains an intense aroma and characteristic taste. Ideal both cold and hot – for bigos, from the pan, or grilled.
Buffalo Chicken Pierogi – tradition with a modern twist
Pierogi have held a special place on the Polish table for centuries. In this seasonal version, traditional dough is combined with a modern filling of cooked chicken, blue cheese, and spicy Buffalo sauce. This proposal is perfect for winter gatherings in front of the TV, especially during sports events, while maintaining the spirit of Polish home cooking.
Podlaski Cheese – the taste of Polish dairies
Podlaski yellow cheese is one of the most versatile cheeses in Polish cuisine. Imported directly from Poland, it is characterized by a delicate, slightly sour taste and good meltability. It is great for casseroles, hot dishes, and also as a classic addition to sandwiches – so popular in Polish homes.
Bigos – hunter’s tradition for winter days
Bigos, also known as “hunter’s stew,” is one of the most recognizable dishes of Polish cuisine. Prepared with sauerkraut, with added spices and pieces of pork, for centuries it was a one-pot dish, ideal for colder months. Well-seasoned and long-cooked bigos tastes best after reheating – exactly as it was done in Polish homes.
Polish cuisine abroad – more than just food
For the Polish diaspora, traditional dishes are more than just a meal. It’s a way to cultivate culture, language, and family customs. Piast’s January specials allow you to start the new year with authentic Polish flavors, without compromising on quality.
Bon appétit and a happy new year – in true Polish style.
