| Polish
immigrants have brought
with them from their native land a wealth of traditions, spiritual
values,
their tasty recipes and enthusiasm for their own native dishes. Polish
food culture has truly priceless treasures of a tangible character and
the cultural significance connected to historical ceremonies. We are
currently
in the process of collecting the Polish
Recipes and would appreciate your help. In addition to the
traditional
recipes, you could also send food related articles and information
related
to the cultural significance of Polish food or describe traditional
holiday
ceremonies. Please E-mail
your recipes to us or use Blog
to share them with our community. |

| The
total number of Poles
claiming Polish origin in Canada is over 600,000. "Polonia" is the name
the Polish people give to their communities in diaspora. A significant
Polish presence here in Canada began in the middle of the 19th century
and has been continually maintained up to now by repeated waves of
immigration
following mayor economic, political or military crises in Poland. Click
