The springtime dinner ala Food Polka

June 10, 2015 by Food Polka

What the springtime in Poland taste like? It tastes like a new vegetable garden. It tastes like tiny, creamy new potatoes boiled with the skin on, tossed in fresh butter or buttermilk, and topped with fried, runny yolk egg. It tastes like fresh, chopped dill. It tastes like miniature, pale but the sweetest baby carrots and fresh green peas. This is the only time of the year when you can get all these flavors and combine them into one dinner […]

May 30, 2015 by Food Polka

Last March my mother reminded me about my grandma’s 90th birthday in April. She thought I perhaps should send her a special card or a little gift.

The Perfect Soft-Boiled Egg Breakfast Memory

May 22, 2015 by Food Polka

When I was a little kid, growing up in communist Poland we didn’t have Cheerios for breakfast. Corn flakes were hardly ever available. We usually ate open-face sandwiches of some kind. Sometimes we had oatmeal or semolina with hot milk, which I hated. Eggs were on the menu as well. Usually scrambled or soft-boiled. The soft-boiled egg is the most sentimental memory of my childhood breakfast. Perhaps because its eating involved using a special, little egg holder cup. In that […]

Here is a pineapple oatmeal recipe that I made up once and named “Piña Colada Oatmeal”. It will take that tropical drink you love so much and add the same exotic goodness to your morning routine.
