This is like saying "it isn't Chinese". It's a diverse culture,
whether here in NA or there, in Ukraine. Onion Domed churches? Ahh.
Errrr... ok. Did they have the Orthodox cross or the Christian cross
on the dome? Were the babas from Galician or Bukovinian descent?
I will not eat any pyroghy that is not home made. The commercial ones
I have tasted are like rubber pellets. The dough is tough, tasteless
and too thick. The filling usually has potato flakes and powdered
cheddar. They are too large. They are too greasy.
Food that comes from a private kitchen will most assuredly be
different from food that comes from a commercial kitchen where
standardization applies, and consideration for profit affects raw
ingredient choices. Of course there are some fine kitchens that will
turn out good pyroghy. And they *can* be church fundraisers. Just not
likely. Not in my experience.
