Etymology

The word 'piroshki' originates from Russian, where it is the plural form of 'pirozhok', which itself is a diminutive form of 'pirog', meaning 'pie' or 'pastry'. The culinary tradition of making piroshki can be traced back to the 16th century in Russia and is reflective of the influence of various cultural exchanges throughout history. Piroshki were traditionally made by peasant families as a means of utilizing leftover ingredients and were often included in lunches or taken on travels. Over time, they evolved into a popular street food and are now enjoyed in various forms across many countries, including Ukraine, Belarus, and Poland, often with regional variations that reflect local tastes and ingredients.
