It's a northeastern European food, consisting of stuff, usually potatoes and cheese or maybe meat sealed inside a circular piece of pastry folded in half, and then boiled, fried or both.

In Canada you can buy them pre-made in the frozen food section, and probably from a Ukrainian lady down the street, too.Aviatrixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13634111275860140084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10000144.post-25023774413544173682010-09-30T21:30:33.411+00:002010-09-30T21:30:33.411+00:00Speaking from the Deep South of your neighbor to t...Speaking from the Deep South of your neighbor to the south of Canada, I didn't know what the heck a "perogy" was...
