Can't seem to find the proper recipe for pierogi dough. Can't remember the proportions, google basically sucks as it's giving me "Americanized" or is that "North Americanized" versions of the dough. Pretty sure it has potato in it, as observed by myself & my dw having helped our respective mothers make it. The closest I'm seeing is potato water. The last 2 batches have been miserable, 1st was tough, 2nd was gnocchi adapted but that was too light. Tired of experimenting, want some non store bought pyrohy's (there, I've used up 3 of the 6 possible spellings too!)

So you're saying the traditional recipe contains potatoes?

Definitely. It makes the dough more tender, but I have no idea what the proportions are, I also know that gnocci dough works but tends to fall apart if even slightly over cooked. Good luck getting 2 dozen out of the boiler without overcooking a few.
Now excuse me while I go pound head against a wall for a while.
You literally pulled up the same sites except used better search terms. I am stupid.

Crank provided 3 links with the potato dough, like I said, I'm stupid. From the same 3 places I got shitty recipe's from, I should go back to bed, home sick today.

Or get Cheemo's the company that owns the Canadian market. I know, but some combinations aren't available. Like sauerkraut, but who the fuck puts that in a perogy - no don't answer that, the question is rhetorical.

Yeah all the bubba's love that shit. Kinda like the Mexican make over with refried beans, jalapenos & cheese, damn they're good.

Costco and Farmboy have plenty of options. Better then that cheemo crap.

Or I can just my own like we did before there were factory made perogies, yet another lost skill.

This one is similar to my grandmother's.

I've read and have been told the sour cream dough is pretty good too. Might have to try that some time.

Love Perogies. I tried to make my own from scratch, way too much work and not as good. Just buy a box of Mrs. T's perogies from your local store.

However, I'm a firm believer that the frozen, factory-made equivalents get you about 90% of that made from scratch goodness, with about 10% of the effort.

10%? Id say more like 2% of the effort.

I dunno, there's something about rolling out the dough, making the filling, boiling them and then stealing them before mom catches ya. None of the childhood memories with the store bought ones.
A family friend pointed me in the right direction...
