If there’s one thing I love, it’s discovering local gems in the food world, and Nina’s Pierogi did not disappoint. A BC-owned business making handcrafted pierogi, they offer classic and creative flavors made with quality ingredients. So, of course, I had to try a few.
Where I Found Them
I picked up four bags of Nina’s Pierogi from my local Choice Market—because let’s be honest, one bag is never enough when pierogi are involved.
The Lineup: What We Tasted
Vegan Potato & Cheddar – A dairy-free twist on a classic
Butternut Squash & Sage – Sweet, savory, and full of flavor
Traditional Potato & Cheddar – A timeless favorite, done right
How We Cooked Them
I went with the boil-then-pan-fry method, getting that perfect golden crust. To take them up a notch, I topped them with caramelized onions and crispy bacon. The result? Pure pierogi bliss.
The Verdict
Vegan Potato & Cheddar – Surprisingly, I could barely tell the difference between the traditional Potato and Cheddar.
Butternut Squash & Sage – A unique, slightly sweet flavor that felt like fall in every bite.
Traditional Potato & Cheddar – Comfort food at its finest, rich and cheesy.
Final Thoughts
Nina’s Pierogi is a must-try for any pierogi lover. Whether you keep it traditional or explore their creative flavors, you can taste the love and craftsmanship in every bite. Support local, eat delicious.
