When you arrive in Poland, you have to eat “Rosół” and “Schabowe” with potatoes.
Rosół is a very hearty soup, cooked from beef bones. It also has some vegetables like onion, carrot, celery, leek etc. Some people also add Maggie seasoning, but this is like cheating for older generations. The best thing about this dish is that it’s perfect before drinking alcohol and when you have a hangover!
“Schabowy” is a big piece of pork chop (really big!) like the size of half of your plate. There are few types but mostly we cook it with a little coating made from eggs, milk, and flour. It is served with potatoes and some cucumber salad.
Many families, especially in the countryside, treat those two dishes as a must-have every Sunday. In a “milk bar” you can eat both dishes for less than $8. It is really worth trying if you will be in Poland!
Great job, and these sound delicious!
