As kids, we made pierogi by hand-rolling the dough into logs, cutting pieces, flattening, rolling into circles, adding filling and pinching to seal before setting on a sheet covered in a tea towel and dusted with flour. I still follow this process when I make pierogi with my family. With the invention of the pierogi-or dumpling-maker, home-made pierogi are now an attainable feat for the humble home cooks who don’t have the patience to make these cherished dumplings by hand. Factor in a rolling circle cutter and you will have homemade pierogi in no time. Fillings can include combinations of onion, sauerkraut, cottage cheese, potato, cheese, bacon, mushroom, poppyseed or fruit.
