Pierogies - Where polish tradition meets polish vegan

Pierogies were made in my family for generations and everyone I know loves them!
Due to my recent change to a vegan diet I had to come up with some substitute for a cheese that would be added to traditional polish pierogies. Thanks to science I am able to use Nutritional Yeast instead, which not only adds an amazing cheese flavor but also boosts your system with Vitamin B12!

Step 1: The Filling

Start with the filling so you will have time to make the dough in the meantime.

Peel 4 Lg potatoes
Boil them until soft (like for puree)

Chop a few cloves of garlic and 2 onions
Saute with some olive oil on medium heat

Our family and church has been making pierogis forever. Our family favorites are blueberry, apple, mushroom, onion and jack cheese, we have even made them with elk, onion and jack chese. The family recipe for dough is much different, we add sour cream and salt

The best pierogies I've ever had are made with Yukon gold spuds, cream cheese and sharp cheddar, and served with carmelized onions and piles of sour cream.
Some friends of ours made theirs with sausage instead of potatoes; and my hubby's godmother made them with fresh raspberries--Yum.

I will have to try this! I love pierogies but I'm lactose intolerant. And I always eat so many of them I get very sick, haha. This is excellent!

What is the amount of flour used?

[mikebook]

Is it supposed to be 2 cups of flour and one cup of hot water?

[katabu]

Yes, 2 cups of flour + 1 cup boiling water.
You will also need some extra flour to roll out the dough.
Good luck and enjoy!
