PIEROGY GRILLING TIPS
- Before grilling, run them under cool water for 2-3 minutes to thaw them. (This makes the pierogies easier to work with while ensuring they don’t get too soft!)
- Coat the pierogies completely in oil
- Pierogies grill best when you use a piece of aluminum foil as a grilling tray. This prevents the pierogies from sticking to the grill or falling apart when flipping… but you still get grill marks!
