Thank You!

Now she is back to Poland past 5 years. I do missed her cookings. I may have to go to Polish Deli and it is expensive. Thank you. I do missed it very much. |

Here in the Chicago land area, they run around $ 95.00 a pound, but the are worth it, and you don't need much. There are cheaper ones, but not from Poland, and not as good. Bobacks has it all here in Chicago, on Archer. I shop there no less than once a month.

I got the mushrooms yesterday at Bobaks, and will make this later. The mushrooms cost a lot, but I know they are good, since they came from Poland.
How many will this serve, looks to be a lot. We said, if it turns out good, we will give some to friends to try.

We made the mushroom soup, and it is great. Just like I ate in some of the finer restaurants in Poland.
You all have to try it, it is not hard to make, just takes time, but worth it.
