Good question, although I’m sure there will be as many answers as there are people. It’s the most basic food and as Poland’s economy was mostly based on agriculture for many years, fresh bread symbolised successful harvest and symbolised family, home and I guess the spirit of togetherness. And until a few years ago, when big hypermarkets flooded Poland with cheap, mass-produced bread it was really good almost anywhere you went in Poland. It still is, only now you need to know where to go.

The bread in that picture looks delicious. It almost makes me regret I don’t eat bread anymore

Polish bread is wonderful. Please publish some recipes for the traditional breads. I have searched the internet for years but found nothing that comes close to replicating the fantastic breads I have tasted in Poland.

We have an excellent Polish Bakers – The Pine Tree Bakery in Tollcross, Edinburgh that supplies most of Edinburgh and Glasgow! Their doughnuts are twice the size of British ones and their cheesecake is delicious!

Does anyone have a good recipe for Sour Rye soup? I have the sour rye, chicken stock, a bit of sausage and a boiled egg – but not the ‘je ne sais quoi’!
