What it is
The hunter's stew: sauerkraut and fresh cabbage braised with smoked sausage, meats and wild mushrooms, reheated for days until it deepens. Ingredients: sauerkraut, white cabbage, kiełbasa, smoked bacon, pork, beef leftovers, dried wild mushrooms, prunes, onion, bay, allspice, juniper, red wine (optional). Recipe: 1) Soak mushrooms; chop. 2) Braise kraut and cabbage with meats and spices, in stages. 3) Add mushrooms and prunes. 4) Simmer at least 2-3 hours — then reheat tomorrow and the day after, as tradition demands. Serve: with rye bread or potatoes, at weddings, hunts and winter feasts. Flavor: sour, smoky, foresty, endlessly deep. History: bigos travelled in barrels with hunting nobles; Mickiewicz praised it in Pan Tadeusz, Poland's national epic, as the taste of the old Commonwealth. See also: Pierogi, Kotlet Schabowy.
