Pierogi which consist of noodle dough and have to be cooked in boiling water are associated with the Central and Eastern European kitchens where they are considered national dishes. Pierogi-like dumplings are popular in most Central and Eastern European countries as well as in Ashkenazi Jewish and modern-day American cuisines, where they are known under their local names. Typical fillings include potato, sauerkraut, ground meat, cheese, mushroom, and fruits. The dumplings may be served with a topping, such as melted butter, sour cream or fried onion, or a combination of those ingredients.The English word "pierogi" comes from Polish pierogi, which is the plural form of pieróg, a generic term for filled dumplings. It derives from Old East Slavic and further from Proto-Slavic, "feast". While dumplings as such are found throughout Eurasia, the specific name pierogi, with its Proto-Slavic root and its cognates in the West and East Slavic languages, including Russian pirog and baked pastries, shows the name's common Slavic origins, antedating the modern nation states and their standardized languages. In most of these languages the word means "pie".
