I'm getting ready to put mine in the oven. I grew up in a Polish and Ukrainian family and your channel has been a Godsend! I used to love your show growing up too lol. Dziękuję

She’s so funny and she’s a great teacher. Thanks for being our quarantine guide and comic relief.

I'm a guy well over 50 ... :-) from a child's eye perspective ... This was the poppy seed roll that made my aunt May the most awesome cook in the world. All other cooks are in the shadow of her greatness! We would beg our mom to take us over to her house often for this treat and also her poppy seed pies and kolaches. She had many flavors for many types of pies and pastries. The poppy seed roll was my favorite. Thank you for bringing back those wonderful childhood memories!

Love the conversations during the cooking demonstration. Reminds me so much of being in my grandmothers' kitchens. Food Network does not know the 'jewel' that they are missing. Thanks so much for sharing your love of cooking!

My parents are Croatian, and my mother used to make this at Christmas. It is one of my favourite Christmas treats.

I think I can survive just using Jenny’s recipes, nothing else, and this would be a beautiful life! Thank you, Jenny, for your recipes, love them all! 🌹🌷

My mom made similar rolls using other fillings, usually stewed prunes, apricot butter, or ground walnuts. No matter how picky we were as kids there was something that everybody liked.

the battle of the plastic wrap was faught valiantly. we lost some good men. it shall be remembered for generations to come.

I’m Japanese/Polish girl living in Japan for my whole life:) This Christmas I wanted to make Makowiec.. that makes me feel so nostalgic! this video was the best teacher. Thank you so much! And Merry 2021 Christmas for all:)

my German Oma made this every Christmas, poppyseed and walnut. I made 2 of each today, I like to send as gifts, and this is closest to my Oma's bread ever. I do use jarred poppyseed filling but add some walnuts, chopped dried apple, 2 tbsp orange marmalade and golden raisins. The walnut filling the same ingredients but 2 egg whites beaten to stiff peaks and folded in, just what Oma did. I think they hold the walnuts filling together. Thanks Jenny!

I haven’t had this bread since I was a little girl. My Polish grandparents died in 90s. Never thought I’d taste this again. Thank you so much it was delicious ❤️🎄

Thank you Jenny for helping us to carry on our family traditions! It means more to me than you could ever imagine. God Bless YOU! Both my adult kids and my grandchildren will all be able to experience what we grew up with.

My favorite!!! Still you can buy in Polish stores all around word. Uwielbiam Makowiec

I'm definately trying this. That's triple the size of one I occasionally buy at the Polish deli for a ridiculous price. My Aunt in Poland made this 25 yrs ago. She made several and I ate an entire one myself because it's my favourite delicacy.

I too must confess that I have eaten a whole one; but it's been many years as no one carries this in my town and I am not about to pay $25 for one to be shipped (yes, I'm cheap, but I'm Polish).

You know most people knew how to cook and bake before the industrial revolution! They didn't even have to go to any college for that. Your recipes are so easy to follow and thank you so very much for helping me get started again. My german oma used to make this and bread and spaetzle and damfnudel and all types of wonderful food right on her wood burning stove and oven right before our eyes. We can do this people. Thank you Jenny! I appreciate your recipes and videos so much. They are also very fun to watch.

I love your presentation, you should have your own TV show

Nice work. Yes, I can confirm, Czechs love MAKOVEC! ;)

My grandmother made poppy seed rolls! She lived in PA. I didn't know it when I was younger but that's about the only place I can get it any more is the holiday season in PA. I am so glad to find this recipe! I will making it in South Alabama from now on!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you for bringing me a piece of my Tatto back! I have tears streaming down my cheeks in fond memories of him. Thank you so much. You have a lovely voice and I am truly blessed for having watched this and finding your channel. Hugs from Halifax

Canadian Navy Wife, I cry through the majority of her Polish recipes. Reminds me of growing up in Poland. Wish I could afford to go back home for a visit. No family left to go see. All gone, here in the United States and in Poland.

I use a coffee grinder and it works wonderfully.

my great grandmother used to get poppy seed in brick form from a cintact in New York City. My job as a small boy was use an old fashioned coffee grinder and grind and grind. We were Hungarian and the smells from the kitchen were wonderful

Awesome Jenny! You can cook & a complete joy to watch! Thank you!

There is something so relaxing about watching Jenny cook.

I am so glad that you posted one of my all-time favourite breads. Can't wait to make it.

Reminds me of my childhood! Can’t wait to make it.

Just made this recipe, only used lekvar instead of poppy seeds. Came out delicious. Used my own homemade lekvar. What a difference. Great dough recipe. So was your baked filled donuts. Made them more than once ♥️Thanks for 2 great recipes.♥️

We miss you on the tube Jenny! This looks delicious! Have a Merry Christmas!

I'm so glad to find this recipe.... Mom Mom was Hungarian & Czech and every Christmas she would make this. She would also add (not a lot) golden raisins.

My Mom added the golden raisins too!

Hi JENNY, so nice to see you make this old favorite of mine. My late mother used to make this a lot, but she always used the wet poppyseed filling that comes in a jar in the grocery store. It's in the grocery store in the pie filling section. She also used it to make " Homentashen" for the Jewish Holiday of Purim. I have also bought this in the Russian grocery store. I love it so much. They roll the dough very thin so the end result has many, many layers. It also used to make me sleepy after I ate it. LOL

I am from Poland and thanks for this video.My Irish friend asked me how to make it and this video help me to explain him :-)

Thank you Jenny. I grew up in Poland (now live in the U.S.) and made it for Wigilia this year. You're a great and funny teacher, and makowiec came out great (I wish I could post a picture). I hope you continue making these videos and I hope you are well.

I'm Yugoslavian and I LOVE THIS. So delicious and comforting.

Spectacular video Jenny....thank you. VERY MUCH

I love your kitchen utensils!!!! So colorful !!

Great sense of humor 😊 thank you!

I would love to have heard the whole song! Polish is a beautiful sounding language! My husband was polish. His grandmother was shy but I loved to hear her speak polish, and she made the most amazing pirogies. You are a wonderful teacher- I enjoyed your video very much! Can’t wait to make it.

I agree, I am polish by association and I too love hearing the polish spoken language! My guy’s mother used to hypnotize me when she spoke! Rest In Peace, I miss her borscht and wish I could replay her cooking techniques. Thank you Jenny for making it look easy!🇵🇱

I am polish....loved your song....and makowiec looks delicious...today I am going to make one as it is our tradition and kutia:-)..thanks 👍 Merry Christmas 🎄

I used to make this when I worked in an old Polish Jewish bakery, it was always a favorite of mine. Thank you for sharing this!!!

Thanks for sharing Jenny. You are awsome. God bless.

this looks so good Jenny, thank you for sharing and Merry Christmas

Love your sense of humour!

I’ve been looking for recipe for polish poppyseed bread with that glaze! Thank you!

Jenny, I'm of Slavic descent and I know that I would enjoy a delicious poppy seed roll. That poppy seed roll looks so yummy! I really enjoyed Eastern European goodies!

Can't wait to try this, Jenny !! Am absolutely sure it's gonna be amazing 🙌 Where are you Jenny, we miss your lovely presence and delicious cooking 🙃 Wish you love ❤️

This was my dad's favorite. He looked forward to it every year. Brings back memories. Thank you! Merry Christmas, Jenny! :)

Great videos,great recipes. Really entertaining. Love to watch.

I’ve been searching for a good poppyseed cake recipe! 😋 the one I knew had raisins in the filling, they were mashed or ground up. Don’t know for sure but I’m going to have to try this!

This was really fun to watch, I might even give it a try.

Hello- Hungarian gal here-grew up with the same bread and never knew how to make it. All of the old ones are gone now so, thank you so much for the excellent teaching so the tradition carries on.

Hi Jenny, I love your recipes :) Thanks!

Hi Jenny! I just discovered your channel today and I think it's amazing :) I've always been interested in polish culture because my grandfather was polish and since I went for the very first time I felt in love with their food. I found your recipes very easy to make and you have a sparkly personality that makes me enjoy watching you cooking. Can you please (please please please) tell us how to make "Zurek Soup"? If you do I will appreciate that so much. Thanks and hugs from Panama :) xx

I had never cooked with poppy seeds until a friend told me of a poppy seed cake her mom used to make. So I finally found a recipe that sounded like her mom's and made the cake. WOW can I just say...best cake ever. Can't wait to try this.

I love you! Thank you SO much for posting this how-to guide! I love watching fellow home cooks/bakers so their thing, oopsies and all:) I grew up with this bread (and nut bread, too!) and now, at the age of 50, I am determined to make and share this with my extended family over the holidays. As a kid/teen, I always preferred the more sugary-sweet icing cookies and all the rest during the holidays, but THIS Poppy Seed roll, along with the Nut Roll, always stayed with me. Thank you so much again for sharing your experience with us ... if mine turns out half as good as yours I will be most pleased! Happy Holidays to you and yours

Thank you,Jenny for the healthy version much better!

I have looked for this recipe for years !!! When I was a little girl my sisters husbands mother would send us this for Christmas and I couldn’t get enough of it . Thank you so much for sharing this with us.

Thanks so much Jenny.......I wasn't able to spend time with my grandmother, or my mom to see how this was made. You've reconnected me to those dear ones who have passed and for that I am greatful.......this and the breads in your other videos are exactly like they use to make.........forever in your debt for taking your time to post this.........

Makovník je super!!!

I wonder if a coffee grinder would work for the poppy seeds?

What a great video. You really make this! I wish I watched this before I made mine. Definitely learned something. Thanks

I grew up with this...my one of my best pastry....always on Sunday afternoon....I miss it, will try again

Thanks for the recipe, ❤❤

I made this today. It was really nice and the dough was very easy to work with which is great. I’ll also use this dough to make other fillings. Thank you so much for sharing this recipe Jenny

I use to grind it manually with that machine for my Czechoslovakian grandma and she did the must wonderful rolls thank you for the recipie

I KZread recipe ideas at least 3 times a week. I almost never look at videos over 5 minuets, however, I wanted more details as this is a bread my mother made. I have to say those 12 minuets went by painlessly as I was so entertained by your easy nature and informative tutorial. I can not wait to have a poppy seed roll party with the girls. They loved the last perogie party!

I wish you would do more videos. I love your recipes.

Jenny, thank you for your recipe's. Just subscribed and all the memories came flooding back. My grandmother used to make this roll for me and for the last 40 years i haven't tasted any that were as good.

You are adorable! Love your personality and today I'm making this beautiful bread! Even if its February !

I made this bread for my aunt who is of Polish descent. I pronounced it as you did in the video. She started to cry. I we watched your video and she heard you sing in Polish, again, the tears. She also loves you.❤

This was so sweet - thank you for sharing with me. Please tell your aunt I'm proud to be Polish and she's the first person who appreciated my Polish singing! 🇵🇱🎵

That looks fantastic and very unusual but no doubt delicious !

My great-grandmother used to make poppyseed roll, similar to yours. I do not remember the icing though. She and her husband immigrated in the early 1900's from Austria. They lived in eastern Austria near the border of Hungary. I've never tried to make this before. You've inspired me! Thank you for sharing...

Jenny your dough looks perfect. Thank you for the recipe. Iris

Thx. Looks like a great recipe. I'm saving it. Got a lot of seeds.

I made these as individual roles, like pecan rolls, versus a loaf of bread. They were fabulous.

Ok, ...funny, entertaining, informative and charismatic. I am impressed and cannot wait to bake it 😁

We made these growing up with my Slovenian Granma. We ground the seedsand then cooked them for about four to six hours. Thanks for the recipe.

really love yiur videos , jenny ;) this looks awesome ! thanks !

My Mom always made this for the christmas hioliday. It was my favorite

Thanks!

Picture perfect Jenny, thank you!

In Croatia we call it Makovnjača 🙂 Looks delicious 😍

This is very nice of you to share this with everyone. I find that the poppyseeds need to be very well rinsed -- I tend to rinse them about 3 times before doing anything with them and it's amazing the amount of dirt that comes out.

That looks amazing

Love it lady.Fantastic and thank you 🙏 😘
