teflcat:
I wonder if Poles try iskembe ćorbasI when holidaying in Turkey. This is their version of tripe soup. It isn't as peppery as flaki but they sometimes add vinegar at the table to give it a bit of a bite. It is considered to be a hangover cure, or rather a hangover prophylactic as it is eaten after a night's drinking.

In Mexico they have a tripe soup very similar to flaki. The difference was that the broth was tangy. They serve it for breakfast (hangover curing link here?).

There was a lovely food that my wife called 'fabusia' but the butcher place I used to buy it at doesn't have it anymore. There was another similar one whose name escapes me.

Like a soft pastry type thing with a ham filling inside. One was with mushrooms.

Bah, she can't remember. Fabusie and, to my recollection anyway, smakosie was the second one. They were absolutely delicious but, predicably enough, loaded with calories.

I also like meatless meals though I am not a vegetarian per se. Goł±bki with cooked barley groats and wild msuhrooms are one example...Others include lentil-filled pierogi, ruskie (potato, cheese & fried onion) pierogi, pieróg -- a loaf stuffed with buckwheat, farmer cheese and potatoes, creamy spring vegetable soup (cauliflower, baby carrots, new potatoes, dill garnish), califlower with browned buttered breadcrumbs (known world-wide as à la polonaise), braised cabbage, braised beetroot (great accompaniment to duck, beef and game dishes), cooked radishes with polonaise topping...

Did anyone have a dish called "prażocha" or "lemieszka"? It is similar to polenta but made with (I think) wheat flour rather than corn meal.
What about a dish called "parzybroda". It's potatoes cooked with bacon and cabbage.

My grandmother used to cook both. I didn't have them since childhood. I'm wondering if anyone still cooks these dishes.

Not prażucha but my wife does occasionally coook parzybroda (chin-scorcher) soup. It is very nice, as are many other Polish soups.
