Ingredient appreciation — what makes Gołąbki special

What sets Gołąbki apart is the handling of smoked sausage. In lesser versions this is treated as a background note. Here it's central and the deeply savoury with fermented notes result shows it. I've started buying it to cook with at home after this experience.

Polish cuisine reflects Central European and Slavic agricultural traditions. The a family Christmas Eve wigilia dinner atmosphere was right for this kind of food. I had kwas chlebowy bread drink as recommended and it matched well. If you want to understand what makes this cuisine distinctive, Gołąbki is the place to start.
