To Reheat Varenyky (Pyrohy)


Varenyky have one great virtue for a busy homemaker. They may be made in a large quantity, refrigerated, and reheated without any loss of quality. In fact, many prefer them reheated to freshly boiled ones. With the modern methods of home-freezing, the problem of spoilage is eliminated, because cooked Varenyky may be kept indefinitely To reheat Varenyky, follow one of the following methods:
·        Pan-fry the Varenyky in butter or bacon fat until they are a light golden colour.
·        Heat the Varenyky in the top of a double boiler or in the oven until they are hot and plump.
Bring to a boil 2 or 3 Tbsp. of sour cream or half and half and some butter in a frying pan. Place a layer of Varenyky in the pan, cover and cook them over a medium heat for about 4 to 5 minutes, or until they are thoroughly heated. Turn them over, cover, and cook the other side. This gives a rich, tasty, and tender Varenyky. For rich golden brown Varenyky, follow the same method, but cook them slightly longer and remove the cover after they are turned over.
