Along with vareniki and salo, galushki is a very popular Ukrainian dish. It is a dumpling made of dough then boiled in water, milk or broth. They are cooked mostly with flour, adding semolina, cottage cheese or grated apples. The galushki are easily cooked, and their recipes aren’t very varied. However, there are some variants that depend on a region; for example, the Southern Ukraine boasts galushki in tomato sauce. Galushki is a second course, and they are served with sour cream, sometimes with gravy.
It is one of the well-loved entrée of Ukrainian families. The paste can be made with chicken, beef or pork liver, but the most light is the chicken pâté.
The porcini are widespread and commonly appraised in the Carpathian Mountains because of its inimitable fragrance and exquisite flavor. That is why the majority of Hutul dishes are made with porcini.
It is a traditional Ukrainian pastry, which is made during orthodox holiday, Honey Spas (the middle of August). It is a rather simple pastry with poppy-seeds saturated with honey.
