Sos Czosnkowy (Polish Garlic Sauce)

June 16, 2018 by Lois Britton 12 Comments

Sos Czosnkowy (Polish Garlic Sauce) is a staple in Poland, but lucky for me, since it’s not readily availabe in my stateside supermarket, it’s easy to make. Sos Czosnkowy is used in so many ways that I have to say it’s Polish Ranch Dressing.

I remember when buttermilk ranch dressing first appeared on the scene. We put it on salads. Now, you’ll find it used with chicken wings, pizza, people are dipping their french fries and onion rings in it for heaven’s sake.

Polish Garlic Sauce is the same way. It’s offered with pizza, with zapiekanka, along side grilled meat and potatoes, and used to make a dressing for Shawarma Salad and Wraps. It’s super tasty, and I think you’ll find a lot of uses for it too, unless you are my friend, David, who is allergic to garlic! 🙁

You can be a purist and just season the base with garlic, salt, and pepper, or dress it up a bit and add dried or fresh herbs, a combination of whatever you have on hand, parsley, rosemary, thyme, dill.

Let me know how you decided to use your Sos Czosnkowy (Polish Garlic Sauce).

Smacznego!

    Yummy, this is similar to tzatziki sauce which is a big favorite around here. The more garlic the better!

      I used three cloves, and they were large. Good thing we both love garlic.
