Polish food

OK, many of you are going to read the following entry and it will send shivers down your back. However, I said I would try new things and let you know about them. Well as I mentioned in a previous entry I visited a Polish deli. One of the items I purchased is called Kiszka which is a traditional blood sausage and is part of the Polish cuisine. It’s made of a mixture of pig's blood and buckwheat stuffed in the casing. Kiszka may be eaten raw, but traditionally it’s either grilled or fried with onions and served with potato and sauerkraut. I know every ones stomach is in knots but it is real good if you can forget about the name and the ingredients. I bet I could slices it up and put it on a plate with cheese and crackers and no one would question the ingredients.
