Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Start by making the dough for the noodles. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt. Make a well in the center and crack the eggs into it. Gradually add the milk while mixing everything together with a fork until a dough forms.

  2. Once the dough comes together, transfer it to a floured surface and knead it for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.

  3. Roll out the dough on a floured surface to about 1/4 inch thickness. Using a knife or a pasta cutter, cut the dough into thin strips to make the noodles. You can also run the dough through a pasta maker for even and thin noodles.

  4. In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the noodles for 3-4 minutes or until they float to the top. Drain and set aside.

  5. In a separate saucepan, combine the poppy seeds, honey, and milk. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and the poppy seeds release their flavors, about 12-15 minutes.

  6. Stir in the chopped nuts and raisins into the poppy seed mixture. Let it simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes until everything is well combined.

  7. Toss the cooked noodles with the poppy seed sauce until they are evenly coated.

  8. Serve the Kluski Z Makiem in individual bowls, dusted with powdered sugar for a final touch. Enjoy the warm, comforting flavors of this Polish Christmas delicacy with your loved ones!
