Paczki Day: A Polish tradition with a modern twist

  • Summary

  • A brand new season of The Dish is here, and we’re kicking things off with a Michigan favorite – pączki. We’ll take you inside a popular Hamtramck bakery known as "Pączki Headquarters," to see what it takes to make thousands of these rich jelly donuts ahead of Fat Tuesday, plus we’ll talk to a food writer about why this Polish tradition is so beloved, and how the pączki keep evolving.

    GUESTS:

    • Micki Maynard, journalist and editor of Culinary Woman Newsletter on Substack
    • Suzy Ognanovich, New Palace Bakery family member
