The recipe for these steamed buns is at least as old as me and comes from my Mum's recipe notebook. Parniki are not the easiest to make, but the satisfaction upon successful completion is immense. We are all staying at home, so why not give parniki a go? Recipe is waiting on he blog, link in the bio! 🖖 #freethecupboard #parniki #parzoki #pampuchy #steameddoughnuts #doughnuts #steamed #steamedbuns #homecooking #homebaking #stayhome #food #foodblogger #recipe #mumscooking

How to explain a liking for this rather acquired taste? For the 4-year-old me, zupa ogórkowa has always been synonymous with a treat: something I know I’ll enjoy, and what is also nourishing and healthy. Or so I was told. Recipe for this super tasty Sour Cucumber Soup now on the blog, as promised. Link in the bio 🖖 Happy cooking everyone! . . . #sourcucumbersoup #zupaogórkowa #soup #pickles #pickledcucumber #sourcucumber #preserved #fermentedfoods #comfortfood #mumscooking #homecooking #food #foodblogger #polishfood #catsofinstagram #blackcat

Did I say there was also a soup? And not any soup, my favourite soup: sour cucumber with potatoes. Pickle soup might not sound very appealing to some, but it kinda works. The sourness of the pickle is broken by the sweetness of carrots, potatoes and a generous addition of cream. Add some fresh dill or parsley, and it’s not far from what I’d call a perfect meal. Would you try? The recipe will be on the blog tomorrow, stay tuned 🖖 . . . #soup #sourcucumbersoup #zupaogórkowa #mumscooking #homecooking #comfortfood #inthekitchen #lunch #countryside #polishfood #potatoes #food #delicious

My Mum baked bread this morning, and, to tell you the truth, waking up to a smell of freshly baked bread is awesome. Thanks, Mum! ♥️ Gotta post a recipe for this one soon, I have to convince @malgorzatabawol to share it with me first. Who will be up for the challenge of bread making? 😁 . . . #bread #breadmaking #homemadebread #homebaking #inthekitchen #mumscooking #mum #breakfast #morning #freshlybaked #delicious #food #freethecupboard #wasteless #buyless #makeyourown #stayhome

Porter Śliwkowy from Browar Grodzisk, Poland 🇵🇱. Although it barely caught on this year, it seems that winter is already on it's way out (I can tell by the fact that my hayfever is returning...) so it's time to finish off any festive beers left lying around. This was a fun gift as I got to chose 1 out of 4 beers from the brewer's gift box. Now usually I would steer clear of anything 'plum', but it's hard to resist the words 'limited edition'! A Baltic Porter at 10%. Light and delicate feel with a strong and sticky plum sweetness, luckily balanced with a smoky, oak-like taste. Finish is slightly bitter but the alcohol is not hugely noticeable. Enjoyable and probably more so if you like plum 😉. 7/10. #porterśliwkowy #browargrodzisk #polishbeer #poland #polish #balticporter #porter #darkbeer #beer #porterbałtycki #beerlover #beertasting #beerphoto #beerenthusiast #beertime #beerme #beerrating #beerphotography #craftbeer #craftbeerlover #beersoftheworld #beerappreciation #beerreview #beeroclock #beernerd #beersofinstagram

Šariš Tmavý from Pivovary Topvar, Slovakia 🇸🇰. Yesterday was one of the warmest and sunny days we've seen for a while, but I'd already planned to do next to nothing for the majority of the day - so that's exactly what I did 😊. Some friends went for a trip which ended up in neighbouring Slovakia and I was lucky enough to receive a this as a souvenir 😉. A Dunkel Beer at 4.1%. Strong malty taste which has a fair sweetness to it but without being sickly. Little bit of chocolate flavour and very easy drinking. Slight bitter finish. 7/10. #saristmavy #pivovarytopvar #slovakianbeer #slovakia #slovakian #dunkel #darkbeer #tmavy #beerlover #beertime #darkbeerlover #beerphoto #beerreview #beerdrinker #beertasting #beerrating #beerenthusiast #beersoftheworld #beerappreciation #beerphotography #beernerd #beeroclock #beerstagram

Projekt Barrel Aged from Browar Maryensztadt, Poland 🇵🇱. After a (surprisingly) vodka-free festive period in Poland, I definitely have the taste for something strong, but moreover enjoyable. It works out better this way, because vodka drinking should be sociable, but when I drink this type of beverage I can happily admit that it's something I prefer to do alone (plus, I'm not willing to share!). A Russian Imperial Stout at 9.4%. Intense, dark and bitter flavours of coffee and cacao but with some slight fruity (cherry?) sweetness. Also some liquorice notes, which I always favour. This is just on the lighter side of being a harsh, difficult to drink beer. Not sure if the whisky barrel has rubbed off that much here, but it's definitely worth buying. 8/10. #projektbarrelaged #browarmaryensztadt #russianimperialstout #polishbeer #polish #stout #poland #beer #craftbeer #beerlover #beerphoto #beerphotography #beertime #beertasting #darkbeer #stoutlover #beerreview #beerme #beerrating #beersoftheworld #beerenthusiast #beernerd #beerappreciation #beeroclock

Proginis from Rinkuškiai, Lithuania 🇱🇹. Without actually doing that much, it's been a pretty long day. Due to legal requirements, I forwent any consumption of alcohol during the day to allow for a safe journey home. Of course, I have a couple of kinda-special beers waiting for me in the fridge, but after so much food I need something fairly easy for now. And once again, my Lithuanian buddy has sorted me out with a little taster 😉. A Pale Lager at 5.2%. Little bit of a malty sweetness but balanced with a moderate bitter finish. Not overly carbonated. Pretty standard but that's what I needed at this moment. 6/10. #proginis #rinkuskiai #lithuanianbeer #lithuania #lithuanian #palelager #beer #beertime #beerme #beerlover #beerdrinker #beerenthusiast #beernerd #beerphotography #beerrating #beertasting #beerreview #beergeek #beeroclock #beerphoto #beersoftheworld #beerappreciation

Porter from Kampanjola, Croatia 🇭🇷. Of course I've always thought the whole clock-changing business is inconvenient to say the least, but never before have I looked so much forward to the return of Summer Time. Waking up just before sunrise is difficult. Sitting by the window at work during the daylight is the best way to appreciate it, but leaving in the dark can be a bit of a downer. So it's kinda funny that this dark beer is one way to brighten up my evening 😉. A Porter at 6.2%. Relatively smooth, as opposed to watery, which I often find with this kind of ABV. A smokey, oak-like flavour with a hint of bittersweet chocolate. The only darkness right now that I'm not looking forward to finishing! 8.5/10. #porter #kampanjola #croatianbeer #croatia #croatian #istria #beer #craftbeer #darkbeer #beerlover #beerphoto #craftbeerlover #beertime #beerappreciation #beertasting #beerreview #beerphotography #beerenthusiast #beerblog #beerrating #beeroclock #beersoftheworld #beerme #beersofinstagram #beerdrinker

Lab-36 from Pracownia Piwa, Poland 🇵🇱. The funny thing about Sundays here is that I always wish that the shops were open, but every time Niedziela Handlowa (the one Sunday each month where shops are allowed to open) actually comes around, all I can think is that there is no way that I want to go anywhere! Today was also pretty cold with a semi-permanent fog - better to just warm up with another one of my winter specials: An Imperial Milk Stout at 10.2%. Aged in barrels previously used for Merlot definitely gives it that tart, grape flavour and feel, just without that weird, dry mouth sensation I get with red wine. It feels like the best combination of a stout and a wine but somehow taking only the best bits. Smooth and silky feel with almost no carbonation. Malt flavour with awesome oak notes and just ever-so-slightly sweet. Very easy to drink and kind of a shame that I don't have a suitable vessel from which to do so 😫. Will have to go on my drink-again list that's for sure, and hands-down a 10/10. #lab36 #pracowniapiwa #polishbeer #poland #polish #imperialmilkstout #stout #beerphoto #craftbeer #beertime #sundaybeer #beerblog #beerenthusiast #beerappreciation #beerme #beer #beerphotography #beerreview #beertasting #beernerd #darkbeer #imperialstout #beersoftheworld #beerlover #craftbeerlover #stoutlover #beerrating #beergeek
