Zosia's World's Best Pierogi Recipe

Here it is--my grandma's pierogi recipe.

It wasn't easy to get. When asked for a recipe, grandma always said something like "get a pile of flour" or "knead it until it feels right." She never used actual recipes. So if I wanted to learn something from her, I needed to go to her kitchen and work with her. She'd put the flour in a bowl--I'd stop her and measure it. She'd knead the dough--I'd get my hands in there to see how "right" felt.

I've spent some great afternoons making pierogi with friends (none of whom were Polish!). And sharing a bottle of wine (though not absolutely necessary) does help.

If you make pierogi with this recipe, let me know how they turn out!
