"Aromatics can refer to both vegetables and herbs - think ingredients like garlic, onion, shallots, leeks, dill, scallions, and parsley. Although they may be simple, they pack a powerful punch when used in cooking, and they're guaranteed to seriously improve your frozen dinner. When deciding which herbs to add, a good rule of thumb is to only choose ones you'd be satisfied eating as-is. For example, you likely wouldn't eat a sprig of rosemary or thyme on its own, so it's best to skip these."
"Dill is frequently served with pierogi, and its subtle sweetness pairs beautifully with the creamy, starchy dumplings. If you don't have any, though, parsley and chives are two good alternatives. Additionally, pairing pierogi with onion, garlic, or leeks is another great way to spice them up. Even better? Roast your garlic or caramelize your onions and leeks for some additional depth."
Frozen pierogi most commonly contain potato and farmer's cheese, with modern varieties offering fillings such as broccoli and cheese or jalapeño and sharp cheddar. Aromatics include vegetables and herbs like garlic, onion, shallots, leeks, dill, scallions, and parsley; they add significant flavor with minimal effort. Select herbs you would happily eat raw and avoid woody sprigs like rosemary or thyme. Dill pairs especially well with creamy, starchy pierogi, while parsley and chives serve as good substitutes. Pairing pierogi with onion, garlic, or leeks enhances savoriness, and roasting or caramelizing those aromatics deepens the flavor. Garnishing cooked pierogi with fresh aromatics provides an easy, immediate boost.
