These Unique Pierogi Pizzas are in Demand During the Lenten Season!
If you're from Northeast Pennsylvania, or have ever spent time in NEPA, chances are you have heard of Pagash Pizza. If you haven't heard it called this, you might know it by "pierogi pizza" or "potato pizza" or simply "Pagach." This pizza is very popular locally due to large Polish and Catholic populations combined with a hefty number of pizzerias in the 570. During the Lenten season, many don't eat meat on Fridays and sometimes not at all, so many pizzerias have created a meatless menu item that has been around for years, but continues to grow in popularity in the area.
The concept seems pretty simple, pizza crust, potatoes, and cheese but the types of Pagash made in NEPA is quite diverse. Some are round, some are square. Some have a single crust, some have double. Some are topped with onions, some have onions chopped up and mixed in, and some don't even include onions. Some Pagash look like giant stromboli filled with potato and other gooey goodness and some appear to be an open-faced white pizza with some potato under the cheese!
