Today our fall dish will be making Kielbasa. Lots of garlic and pepper. Should be able to taste it this evening.

Jim,
That sounds great. Is this the fresh variety or is this the smoked variety.
I tried making a few different recipes this past summer but couldn't come up with one that we all liked.

Hi Piwo, One of my favorites is 'Peach cobbler and cinamon ice cream'. that combo is great. I see you are a aficionado of maple syrup. I generally don't see that except in the Northeast. Apples in various cobblers, crisps and pies abound up here. We are right in the middle of it all. Pumpkins are on sale everywhere. My sister in law got some pumpkin ice cream the other day. It was pretty good. Also we enjpy cornbread at this time of year. I make mine with maple syrup and it is gobbled up before I can get any. Have a beautiful fall season. J.J. Please excuse the way late post to you. The ten post go by so swiftly I become lost {at least this was the best excuse that came to mind in a hurry} Was mixed up on the maple syrup person, piwo corrected me though, sorry. Now my smarts are little more then before.For some reason, I was thinking a maple tree, is a maple tree, is a maple tree, had no idea there were different type of maple trees, at least until now. Also the location of growth, some how I was thinking of this tree as being a tree to grow in most areas that would abound in that of a broad leaf forest. Charles

John,
It was fresh smoked kielbasa and it was very tasty. Plus some fresh kaszanka also very good.

Ah, kaszanka, NOW you're talking! For bescheid = blood sausage, very yummy! Ohhhh, my Dear Herr Scatts, that was lowwwww, I tell ya.... you of all people know I hate and loath Blood sausage {blutwurst}, yes, it is vile, now there are very little I will not eat, for all food is good {except that of Blutwurst}, rather it be that even of: Hausmacher Bratwurst, Schlachtplatte, even that of Leberkäse {and I am not very fond of that} Might as well be back on the Russian ships, at least they would not try to kill a person with faul food, but, blood, eeccchhh. Hmmmm, perhaps this is a Britischer conspiracy, yes? For you and Leslie related, hmmmmm? Charles Charles

Leslie likes kaszanka too then? I have to say though, bescheid, that in my very humble opinion, the Polish kaszanka is better than the German blutwurst. Don't get me wrong, when I lived in Germany I ate a great deal of German sausages and loved them, probably more than your average keilbasa (kill that man!!!) but when it comes to blood the Poles have the edge.

OH, mein liebes Scatts So, gibt es eine Methode zu Ihrer Verrücktheit. Für Sie kennen mich und mein Hauptlandbrunnen-ok, sind Sie korrekt. Charles

I think I just about got that bescheid! Sadly, more or less all my German has been pushed out of my head as the Polish language soaked in.
I was in Germany for 2-3 years back in about '94-'97. Lived in Munchen because that's where the office was based but spent a lot of time in Berlin as well. I preferred Berlin.

Hi Scatts Yes kaszanka is one of my favourite foods in UK and (and I am not being nationalist) I think our 'black pudding' has a better, more rounded taste than the Polish Kaszanska. (Please don't hit me you Poles!!!). You may have also heard of my HATRED of Smalec, probably because I was brought up in a middle-class environment - lard was for the peasants!!!! ;D My favourite food in Poland without any shade of doubt is Barszcz - I even make it myself at home. Did it take you long to become accustomed to Polish fare? I'm surprised at an Englishman calling Autumn 'fall'!!! ;D Pozdrawiam bardzo Leslie

Jim With all that garlic and pepper around the other evening, I hope you didn't let your Kielbasa 'fall'! They would have rolled among the Autumn leaves. Leslie

Oh, I like this KASZANKOLOGY thread! There are many many types of kaszanka depending on the region. In Œl¹sk they have krupniok, in the Eastern parts kiszka. So it is just the matter of finding the kaszanka that best suits ones needs. And there's International Kaszanka Day. It is on May 1st of course! www.1maja.com/

It is on May 1st of course! www.1maja.com/Pierwszy, Thank you so much for the link on 1Maja... I laughed till there was snot coming out of my nose...er, um, well, too much information there I guess (but it really happened) Having a rough week, and the levity was welcome. na Drugiej, I have only had biala kielbasa, boiled and smoked variety. I've apparently been missing out on a lot! And a second good laugh to see the mention of kiszka, which the only time I ever heard of that was the Frankie Yancovic polka, "Someone stole a kiszka"! My polish friend Zdzislaw and I are very close to setting a date to begin our sausage making. He said we'll make at least 40lbs and split it (or he said it's not worth doing). He worked in a meat plant both here and growing up in Poland, and is a sausage making fiend. It will be my first exposure to the smoked sausage process. We are having a difficult time finding apple wood to burn however, and this is delaying things. I don't know what krupniok is, but I do have a bottle of "Old Krupnik" in my "china case"

Leslie,
Kielbase has not fallen still straight and tall. We made kiszka in the US out of the whole hog head. Plus buckweat groats and some liver.
