filled with potatoes, onion, then cooked in butter, topped with salt, pepper & sour cream.

It doesn't get any better than that.

YUM!!!!

The potato, of course, is a New World food.

I would be fascinated to know what it would be like to have pre-Columbian European meals from various regions.

...if you could make a go of a pre-Columbian Italian restaurant.

Figure, there are references to pasta in Italy dating to the 12th century.

What were they putting on it?

. . . basil pesto sauces, for example, and fish sauces, and (particularly in the North) cream-based sauces.

Here's another yummy Polish treat.

Dill Pickle Soup

Believe it or not, it is incredibly delish. If you ever have a chance to try it, do not pass up the chance.

When I tried it, it was a little Polish place in Hamtramck, Michigan. I also had perogies and some wonderful kielbasa.

Happy tummy afterwards.

They deep fry them, saute them, and even drop a giant pickle on New Years Eve.
