Had a quiet day. Decided to experiment. Deconstructed pierogi.
Yukon mash, caramelized onions andouille sausage (no kielbasa in house), garlic cheese and fried pasta shell

Im terrible at photography…

    It’s 2025 and you are not Wylie Dufresne.

  2. Damn, that plate came straight outa hyperspace, had to look twice which sub this is.

    The sandstorm from dune seems to be enjoying it. Seriously though, why that plate? Like why does it exist?

    You lost me at “fried pasta shell”

    (Also “kiełbasa” just means sausage, so, arguably, andouille is kiełbasa)

    Hot take: I like that plate. It’s wild

  6. Looks like it would taste great, but it’s not a pierogi

    It’s important when you’re trying to deconstruct or do a riff on something that you keep the essence of the thing

    Now if you wanted to add more cheese and call it a fancy fried ravioli you might be onto something

    Definitely needs the jazzy plate. A feast for the eyes, it is not. Beige on beige doesn’t entice.

    Don’t listen to the haters. If I was offered that at a cocktail party I would totally smash it. Nicely done! Maybe a dusting of paprika for colour?

    It’s gonna need acid. Maybe as a bite. As a full dish, nope.

    I like the idea, I’d definitely eat it, but it desperately needs color. Also, while I don’t hate the plate like a lot of people do, I don’t think it’s the right choice for this dish. Be careful about calling stuff “deconstructed”…its gimmicky and usually deconstructed anything adds no value to the idea it came from.

    Looks like really fast food, what does it clock on the Kessel run?!

  12. I worry about the pasta shell being too thick and detracting. If it’s super thin and kinda crunches then melts I could see this being really good. Don’t fuck around with the chives like that tho I want to eat them and not feel like I’m chewing grass

    it looks too beige, but DANG! It sounds delicious.

    This looks tasty but the plate it’s on is ass

    I like the idea, but since I see no banana for scale I can’t tell if it would be a mess to eat. Single bite? Nice. Any bigger and I would get frustrated with it all up in my mustache and crumbs in my lap. Doesn’t look utensil friendly either. Agree a little more color would make it pop. Could you incorporate chive into the dough to give a green color? That said, I’d crush it.
