Episode 62: Mrs. T’s Potato & Cheddar Pierogies

26 Feb, 2009

Posted by: Gregory Ng: The Frozen Food Master

Little pillows filled with joy. Mrs. T’s Potato & Cheddar Pierogies are pasta thats folded (gently) and jam packed with whipped potato and cheddar cheese and then cooked perfectly and ready to be swished around your mouth.

This is perhaps one of the most versatile dishes the Frozen Food Master has reviewed. Good as a snack or as a meal, sauteed or grilled or boiled. This is like the superfood in the freezer aisle.

I had my doubts when I busted these babies out and they had the dreaded freezerburn frost on them. But all my fears were unfounded. Mrs T’s knows how to rock the gently folded pasta.

I just tried the mini potato and cheddar ones and made a bacon/white cheddar sauce for them. In-freaking-credible. Try it. Seriously.

You're right! ... my bad =)
You obviously are someone with an experienced palette... who am i to question it! It won't happen again I will think first next time haha

Frying them is MUCH better (I use olive oil)... and then dipped in sour cream. I just can NOT imagine putting pasta sauce on them. Yuck!

But I still agree with you that Mrs. T's pierogies are great. And this is coming from someone who has enjoyed homemade polish pierogies her entire life!

These come out way better if you sauté them in butter, and don't take much longer. I like them browned a bit.

My 10 year old dd and I really enjoy your reviews. We've been buying these for many years. I find them to be the yummiest sauteed in olive oil or butter with slices of vidalia onion. The broccoli and cheese version is worth trying, too.
I have to add....I'm really jealous of those of you who have a Trader Joe's...we are nowhere near one..and those reviews are making me sad.

Adrianne

Aww I'm sorry for you. Giving a good review on this pierogi tells me you haven't had a real pierogi! I'm polish and eat them regularly, with sauerkraut... or cheese mostly. The best way to cook them is sauteed with butter, served with a sour cream and sugar mixture (occasionally)..... and as an appetizer for the meat to come=) Mrs T.'s pierogis are just not that good compared to an authentic pierogi.

Adrianne, just because I gave this a good review doesnt mean I havent had a good authentic one. For the same reason why I can give frozen pizzas a good review even though it never compares to a pizzeria.

Fresh will always be better. But for the price, ease, and consistency of this product, it was good.

For a few quick ones out of the microwave wrap them in a damp paper towel and follow the below times.

1 = 45 sec
2 = 90 sec
3 = 120 sec (for some reason not a 45 sec incrment)
