Yeah celery is not a typical thing to use for us, if anything celery root or celeriac i think its called. They are similar on flavour, i think celeriac is a bit tad more sweeter after cooking. Diced pickles is. strange. I don't think any soup i saw made, made myself or saw recipe for had them diced so big. If anything they would be grated, but not for this soup. Rather to be eaten on side if anybody would want some(but stil lweird af to do, but more of lacto fermented ones than simple pickles. But adding brine from those would be something I could imagine to expect in some recipes altough it can make potatoes 'crisp' in texture over time.
From other things we never fry on olive oil, if anything it would be either on butter, lard or canola/sunflower oil.
But polish-style i would name that for sure, it does have the spirit(in a sense): D

Never seen ziemniaczanka made with the green kind of celery. Celeriac/celery root is always the go-to in Polish cuisine. Pickles are also rather an unusual addition. Bay leaf and allspice are almost a must, maybe some marjoram too. My mom usually it made with pieces of smoked bacon, that is a good version to try too. That being said, it does look tasty and I would absolutely devour a bowl of it rn.

Oh my. For me, the Zen absolutely is in every step of the preparation just like you mentioned. I am definitely going to add the dill pickles and juice in the next batch. Along with all of the fresh cut dill and sour cream I bet it is delectable. As always, all the beat. Joyce

As a Pole to make this recipe more traditional I would just change olive oil for canola oil/ pork lard or add some smoked pork belly. I think cayenne goes well in this soup but we dont really use it, use some majoram/thyme and garlic to make it more healthy and tasty: )

Celery stalks have become somewhat popular in Poland only in last couple decades, we'd use root celery instead and cut it like a potato, and to add something green, we'd go for green onions, chives, parsley, or lovage.
Other that that, it's pretty authentic.

Years ago I flew into Syracuse feeling sick as a dog and stopped by a local polish restaurant Eva’s. They had a similar-ish pickle soup on the menu that day and it pretty much cured my cold on the spot. Good stuff, I’ll have to give this a try.

I'm not a big fan of recipes where taters are the main ingredient, unless it's mashed or baked taters. Otherwise, I think they should be a minor ingredient so they don't take over the flavor. For example, I hate clam chowder that has too many taters.

This looks so wonderful & warming on a cold winter's eve! I found another video today for German erbsensuppe-pea soup. but the split green peas stay whole in this one. With sausage, potatoes and such too. Need to find a recipe.

Is the inclusion of Polish sausage what makes this a Polish potato soup
If I swapped it out for spicy Italian breakfast sausage, would it be an Italian potato soup
I am of course, not being serious.

This looks delicious! My babcia would probably use a non- flavored vegetable oil (instead of olive) and at least 2 tsp of Vegeta (instead of just salt. The sour cream and dill are spot on!

I'm in MN and experiencing the warmest winter in 100 years. I love soup, and yes the process is so fun. I feel a recipe is just a really good suggestion, make it your own.

Acidic brine or vinegar inhibits potatoes from breaking down. Adding that at the end of cooking will save you time and you won't need a masher. Hi from Lithuania; )

Hey Chef John, any other tips for how to mimic that Kielbasa flavor in a veggy version (mushroom sub can't possibly do all that heavy lifting)

Hated this soup when I was a child. ; ) To be honest, it actually doesn't got better with age. It never was done with celery in my house, though.

I don't know all polish soup recipes. But when a polish recipes calls for celery, it usually refers to celery root.
Still looks tasty though

Looks great. I have slightly different version using French Onion Dip, whole Cream and Butter. Thanks for sharing with me.
