Pierniki (Gingerbreads) are sweets made of hard dark brown dough made from a mixture of wheat with wheat flour, milk, eggs, caramelized sugar, honey, heavily seasoned with cinnamon, ginger, cloves, cardamom, anise and lavender.
The name piernik comes from the Old Polish word pierni, i.e. Feb. The first workshop for these Christmas cookies in Poland was established in Krakow.
Pierniki are produced in small and large cakes, often glazed with chocolate, nuts and dried fruits, and in the middle are filled with marmalade, peanut cream or marzipan. They are also baked in the form of cake cakes with plenty of marmalade for filling. Glaze, fruit jam or chocolate-sugar-marzipan topping is used for decoration.
Once involved the dough for sweet Pierniki, must be left in the cold to ferment. In industrial production, the maturation of the dough can take several weeks, and the dough of the homemade Christmas Gingerbread should be made a month before the holiday.
The featherbeds are a traditional pastry of the city of Hansa. They symbolize their success and their contacts with the world. Initially, it was a luxury because of the import prices of spices and dried fruits.
The tradition of baking piers has survived in Bremen, Monaco, Nuremberg, Amsterdam, Liege, Ostend, Klaipeda, and from Polish cities - in Gdansk, Torun, Szczecin. In Torun in the 17th century the famous Katarzyns were baked, which were qualitatively compared to the well-known Nuremberg piers throughout Europe. Stettiner Peperkoken is baked in Szczecin, Germany, and Neisser Konfekt in Nis. In the Czech Republic, the city of featherbeds is Pardubice, near which / in Rabi / is located the museum The house of piers.
As an export commodity sent to remote corners of the world, the featherbeds are designed to withstand the long journey. They owe their durability, on the one hand, to the spices used, and on the other - to their dryness and hardness. They can be stored in a cool and dry place for even a few months.
In Poland in the XVII century piers are sold in pharmacies as an effective remedy for many diseases. In many countries they have been a symbol of wealth and high social status.
It was not until the 19th century that they appeared in rural homes. At that time, they even entered the dowry of the bride dough for piers and jelly meat broth for the preparation of rosół vegetable soup. Crushed piers are an integral part of the old Polish sauce.
