I have one historical remark. The first Milk Bar, i.e. a eatery serving vegetarian dishes based on milk, eggs and flour, was opened in Warsaw in 1896 by Stanisław Dłużewski (a noble, owner of a huge farm near Warsaw). The bar was called "Mleczarnia Nadświdrzańska" and was located at Nowy Świat Street. The bar was profitable and soon other entrepreneurs opened similar establishments. In 1918, the idea of milk bars spread throughout the country. In the following years of crisis, the popularity of milk bars grew even more, and special ministerial orders regulated the size, composition and prices of the food so that it was also available to poorer people. The number of such bars increased during communism. The quality of the served dishes has dropped. Polish culinary tradition was killed during the communist era. It has survived in homes, especially in the countryside. The tradition of noble and bourgeois cuisine is slowly being revived.

I remember when I was little, maybe 7 or 8 years old (late 80s), my uncle was a truck driver for a company that transported either raw materials (flour, yeast, etc.) to bakeries, and then distributed finished goods (breads and rolls) back to the local stores out in the small cities and villages of Poland. Mainly the southeast region. I remember him bringing a loaf or two of country style baked bread home after his supply runs. Big ol' loaves that were about 13 - 15 inches in diameter and about 5 inches thick in the center. Freshly baked and sometimes still warm and fluffy and crusty... Top it off with some home made smoked sausage, or lard with bacon and pickle, and it was just deliciousness unrivaled. I miss those days.

Unlike Poland, UK and US haven't had any change of regime, so the analogy is not perfect. You can still use present tense with the UK and the US. But the point isn't naming all attributes one is able to think of. You could also say "US - one of the first democracies in the world" or "UK - the country with the best cooking shows" or "Poland - the country that was so unable to function as a state in the late Baroque era that it became an easy prey of its neighbours and disappeared from the map of the world for more than a century" or "Poland - not a country, rather a state of mind" ;-) etc. etc. To identify a country is something else than to describe. The presenter is mostly pointing out that Poland belongs to that part of Europe "far away of which we know little" (as the British PM in the 1930's said about Czechoslovakia). The iron curtain still works in people's minds. I wouldn't blame him for using the words "former communist country" as much as for its frequency...

Polish babka will have a lot of recepies. For one will be done with fresh yeast combine with lukewarm milk, spoon of sugar and some flour to make cream like paste and rested to rise.

Knead until smooth. Put about 1/3 of a pan and let to rise until its at least duble in size. Bake in preheated oven and never open until is ready cause will collapse. Collapsed polish babka on Estern means poor year (babka is full of supersticions). When cools down will be glazed in frosting made of fine sugar and lemon juice.

In any polish store. You should find a bunch in britian, Ireland and in polish holdouts in America

Really enjoy you sharing the history of each place you visit, Paul! It is great to see such life and color in a place once dominated by evil. Their desserts seem to me to be the most elegant of all the places that I've seen in this series so far! I have not yet seen Paris or St. Petersburg. I would love to learn more about making such elegant desserts! A dessert does not have to be time consuming to be elegant---they seem to be simple yet sophisticated, which is so perfect to top off a simple elegant meal! LOVED THIS VIDEO---I am watching them back-to-back and sorry that I am forgetting to give a thumbs up or a comment: I JUST CAN'T GET ENOUGH!

I'm loving this! I'm a huge fan of the former Soviet Union. So much oppression produced some of the most interesting and the kindest people in the world. And the food is made to stick to you and keep you healthy in long winters.

The caff is the place I most want to go to of all the places he’s been. That’s all I want out of a restaurant: grandma food. Those ladies know what they’re doing and I’d be sure not to leave anything on my plate. Also, pierogi, please, and kluski....

I am from Warsaw was born and raised here. Need to admit dude you shows a true picture of our city and food. All best from Warsaw

This is a really great show. I got sad when I ran out of episodes lol

Me encanta tus vídeos de los lugares que has visitado y de las comidas eres especial

Warsaw change a lot, it's beautiful city now, and great destination for tasty food.

Superior baking traditions are in Krakow, Polish ancient capital city. Try there ; ) You be absolutely surprised.

I ate at the milk bar Pod Barbakanem.. so long ago.. miss Warsaw, it's streets and restaurants and culture. And no, pierogi are not empanadas... pierogi are meant to be eaten boiled, topped with fried onions and fillings are totally different, mushrooms and sauerkraut, potatoes and white cheese or ground meat and then there are berry pierogi topped with sour cream. They are only heated in a skillet next day, never deep fried like empanadas. How I miss them..

Kapusta 😍😍😍😍😋

Contagias con tu alegría y tus curiosidades eres extraordinario disfrutas de tu buen gusto de la cocina suerte en todo tus proyectos

@@jezalb2710 it could have been from autocorrect. I doubt she'd purposefully try to offend, with her husband/partner being Polish. If you look at other people's comments there are a number of them using lowercase. Some names are Polish too and they should know. 😉

I am drooling.. and wanting to go make some bread!!

Love a man that can cook AND blue eyes!
