Hello, dear readers! Today I would like to share with you one of my favorite dishes – noodles with poppy seeds. This is a traditional Polish dish that has a special place in my heart and always reminds me of the warmth of my family.

Noodles with poppy seeds are a dish that many people associate with the holiday season in Poland, but for me they are a taste that I can enjoy all year round. This is a simple but extremely tasty dish that is an indispensable part of many Polish tables.

Noodles are usually made of flour, water and a little salt. The dough is rolled out and cut into small pieces which are then boiled in salted water. This is a classic version of noodles with poppy seeds. But it is the poppy seed filling that gives the dish its characteristic taste and smell.

Preparing the poppy seed filling is a process that requires attention and patience, but it is definitely worth the effort. Ground poppy seeds are mixed with milk, sugar, honey, vanilla and orange peel, creating a thick, aromatic sauce. When this dish is ready, poppy seeds and noodles create a perfect harmony of flavors – sweet, but with a hint of earth, slightly nutty. What I love about poppy seed noodles is not only their taste, but also the accompanying ritual of preparation. This dish connects me with my roots, reminds me of tradition and family. However, this is a unique dish not only for the Poles. Noodles with poppy seeds win the hearts of many people around the world who appreciate simplicity, tradition and unique taste.

I’m glad I would like to share with you my passion for poppy seed noodles. I hope you will have the opportunity to try this unique dish and appreciate its extraordinary taste. Enjoy your meal!
