Hello Karolina, Unfortunately my Matka and Babcia never taught us the language...specially how to write the language. I want to thank you for my cookbooks that arrived today. I cannot wait to share with my brother and my cousin. All three of us love Polish food and at least recognize the names of dishes. LOL. Thank you again. I wish you and yours the best.

I got the 5 cookbooks today. Just in time to mail them to my family for Christmas. It looks really good. Can’t wait to sit down and read it. They came so fast I couldn’t believe it. I’m going to send one or two of my mom’s recipes along with the book along with a little family history.

I found your blog less than a year ago. My grandparents didn't write down many recipes, so I'm excited to try them. I'm lucky I live in a city that has two authentic Polish markets and one restaurant. It will be nice to cook more Polish food at home.

Polish Foodies recipes are amazing and so accurate, the long lost recipes that weren't handed down you can find here. So good, try the Perogi recipe, it doesn't disappoint.

Your Polish Foodies Cookbook (paperback) was a big hit with my sisters. I gave up my copy to my sister-in-law, so I would like to purchase one more copy for myself. How would I do that?
Mark J. MatusiewiczUSA
As a Canadian of Polish descent, my Babcia also was the one that taught us Polish. Since her passing, most of the recipes she taught my aunts are lost. Your cookbooks are a treasure chest for many who yearn to have those recipes back. Thank you and hope to visit Poland one day to experience my heritage.
Ella K.Canada
Thank you so much. It is so hard to find "authentic" Polish recipes like my grandmother used to make, and unfortunately when she passed, she took her recipes with her. she did everything just by cooking. She had no written recipies.....So I was so happy to find your group! Thank you again.
ChrisUS
Oh thank you Karolina. I really appreciate it. Have a great weekend! And by the way, I love your cookbooks. Every time I try one of your recipes, it reminds me of my mom. She always cooked Polish food for our family but from her memory. Consequently she did not leave me any written recipes. Now when I try your recipes I produce meals that are so similar to her. Thank you from us.

Hi, I'm Karolina Klesta!

I’ve been traveling the world for the past couple of years. Every time I am abroad, I miss Polish food. Traditional bread, pierogi, pickled veggies are food I love most about my homeland’s cuisine.

I started this blog from the love of Polish food. I am sharing with you the most authentic Polish recipes that I’ve taken from my grandmas, moms, and aunties.

If you want to read more about my travels, check out my travel blog. I also run a blog about traveling to Poland – Travel Poland.
