>> Jason: IT'S THAT TIME OF YEAR
WHEN MANY PEOPLE ARE LOOKING FOR
MEATLESS OPTIONS.
AND MANY TURN TO PIEROGIE.
AND WE HAVE MAGGIE HERE.
>> THANK YOU.

>> NICE TO SEE YOU TOO.
>> Jason: I'M LIKE A KID IN A
CANDY STORE.
A POTATO, SWEET CHEESE AND
SAUERKRAUT.
WHAT DO YOU HAVE GOING HERE?
>> MORE SAUERKRAUT.
A SIMPLE DOUGH RECIPES WITH 2
CUPS OF ALL-PURPOSE FLOUR AND
THEN ADD IN A HALF TEASPOON OF
SALT.
TWO EGGS, AND YOU GET THAT
MIXING.
IF YOU HAVE A MIXER AT HOME,
BEST TO USE THAT SO THE HANDS
DON'T GET MESSY.
AFTER YOU GET THE EGG BROKEN UP
AND MIXED IN, ADD IN HALF CUP OF
LUKEWARM WATER.
MIX IT THROUGH UNTIL YOU GET A
DOUGH THAT IS WORKABLE THAT
LOOKS LIKE THIS.
>> Jason: GOT IT.
>> SPLIT IT UP INTO
APPROXIMATELY FOUR SECTIONS ON A
GOOD FLOURED CUTTING BOARD AND
ROLL IT OUT.
YOU NEED THE ELBOW GREASE AND
KEEP ON ROLLING IT UNTIL YOU GET
TO THE THICKNESS OF ABOUT A
QUARTER.
AT THAT POINT, USE A BISCU
CUSSER OR A GLASS.
THERE WAS A GLASS IN THE
CUPBOARD FOR PIEROGIE AND YOU
COULDN'T USE IT FOR EVERYTHING
ELSE.
AND THE TWIST AND TURN.
WEST VIRGINIA CLOSE T 40
DIFFERENT FILLINGS, 20 OF WHICH
ARE MEATLESS.
SO THERE'S A VARIETY TO CHOOSE
FROM IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO ENJOY
MEATLESS.

LEFT TO RIGHT.
JALAPENO, KRAUT AND MUSHROOMS,
KIELBASA, POTATO PANCAKES.
>> THEN CREPES LIKE A DESSERT.
>> Jason: THE BUTBURY VERSION.
>> AND A POLISH VERSION OF
GNOCCI.
>> Jason: THESE AND POTATO, ALL
THE WAY THROUGH.
>> TWIST AND TURN AND FILL IT
WITH THE FILLING, PINCH IT OVER
INTO HALF A MOON AND PINCH THE
EDGES.
TAKE THE FINISHED PIEROGIE AND
PUT IT IN BOILING WATER FOR 3-5
MINUTES UNTIL THEY RAISE TO THE
TOP.
ONCE THEY RAISE TO THE TOP, YOU
REMOVE THEM, PUT THEM ON A PLATE
AND ENJOY THEM AT THAT POINT OR
BROWN THEM IN A PAN.
>> Jason: SO YOU COULD EAT THEM
RIGHT OUT OF THE BOILING WATER
OR IF YOU WANT THE OILY BROWN --
>> BUTTERY DELICIOUSNESS.
AND YOU COULD SAUTE ONIONS AND
OVERLAY IT, SERVE WITH SOUR
CREAM AND ENJOY.

ESPECIALLY IF YOU GET THEM DONE
RIGHT.
