Melted Butter and Onions Topping
Melt a stick or two of butter in a pan. If desired, add sliced onions and sauté until tender, creating a delicious butter and onions topping. Take boiled pierogi and coat each with the buttery mixture. If you're stacking them, use parchment paper; when the butter hardens, the pierogi can stick together and may rip when you go to reheat them, especially after being in the refrigerator. For an added twist, consider trying different pierogi recipes that feature a cracker crumb topping for extra crunch.
