Pierogies. Let's not kid ourselves: they're delicious -- but only when made well. The thing I look for most is the savory filling-to-dough casing ratio. You cannot fuck this ratio up, but some pierogi cooks do. The ones that do are leaving deliciousness on the table, and that's just stupid. I don't eat unfilled bread bowls or bowls of plain noodles, so I didn't come for the dough. Your bread is buttered by the savory filling, so don't skimp on it. Keep those savory filling-to-dough casing ratios up. Thanks.
On a related note, some of my friends and I used to climb onto the roofs of schools after hours when we were in junior high school. This one school had a courtyard in the middle, in which students had buried a "time capsule." We talked about digging it up and fucking with it, but we never did. If I ever reconcile with those old friends and return to that school, I know what I would stuff into that time capsule: a gangload of disgustingly low savory filling-to-dough casing ratio'ed pierogies. Safe.
