Tips:

  • Use a large pot of salted water to boil the pierogies. This will help to prevent them from sticking together.
  • Don't overcrowd the pot. Boil the pierogies in batches if necessary.
  • Cook the pierogies until they float to the top of the water. This usually takes about 3 minutes.
  • Drain the pierogies and immediately transfer them to a bowl of cold water. This will stop the cooking process and prevent them from becoming mushy.
  • Once the pierogies are cool, drain them again and pat them dry.
  • You can pan-fry, bake, or grill the pierogies until they are golden brown and crispy.
  • Serve the pierogies with your favorite toppings, such as butter, sour cream, bacon, or cheese.
