Pairing Makowiec correctly — a note on kwas chlebowy bread drink
Most people overlook how much the right drink changes Makowiec. I ordered it with kwas chlebowy bread drink and the deeply savoury with fermented notes elements of the dish sharpened considerably against the pairing. smoked sausage in particular became more prominent in a good way.
the Christmas Eve wigilia meal has strict traditional rules including twelve meatless dishes. The a family Christmas Eve wigilia dinner is where you learn these pairings — they evolved together. If you've been having Makowiec with the wrong drink, try it correctly once. It's a genuinely different experience. The restaurant deserves credit for getting this right.
