Knish

Knish

EverydayCooked

A knish is a traditional Eastern European pastry featuring a savory filling encased in a golden, flaky dough that is typically baked or fried. Most commonly stuffed with seasoned mashed potatoes, onions, and spices, this Jewish culinary staple offers a satisfying contrast of crispy exterior and soft, hearty interior. While potato remains the classic filling, modern variations may include meats, kasha, or cheese, providing a versatile but calorie-dense option rich in carbohydrates and fats from its dough-based construction.
