Babcias first miraculous act was to transform red clay into black gold. Nothing in her kitchen was ever wasted. She knew how to incorporate peeled vegetable skins, coffee grounds, and eggshells into the soil, a spell which resulted in zucchini as large as baseball bats, and heirloom tomatoes you could barely palm with your hand. Every skunk, opossum, and raccoon within a ten-mile radius was drawn to her vegetal treasures, against which she continuously waged war.
Since my Babcia and her family were keepers of secrets, her detailed history is still murky. We know that she was born in Niagara Falls, New York, in November of 1913. Her family made the bad decision to sell the profitable family glove factory and tavern and return to Poland in the early 1920s. After an forced unwanted marriage in rural Poland, she ran away, boarding the M. . Batory, an ocean liner of the Polish Merchant fleet, to return to the country of her birth during the Great Depression. Before the beginning of World War II, she managed to bring her two sisters, also natural-born citizens, back to America, where they all worked as wartime riveters on the East Coast.
Where and how my Grandmother learned to cook is still a mystery. She knew how to braise, how to roast, and could craft an encyclopedia of sauces from memory. Since my Great-Grandmothers homemade donuts were rumored to break your toes if they fell on your foot, my Babcias skills were definitely not passed down the maternal line. My mothers theory is that while working in Rockaway Beach, Queens as a domestic servant, her mother must have picked up on lessons taught in her employers kitchen.
Mizeria, a cold Polish salad of wilted cucumbers, sour cream, salt, and fresh dill, was a popular dish in my Babcias summertime kitchen. In recent days, with East Coast temperatures rising to high levels, I have turned to it for its refreshing properties as a side dish, as well as for the family memories that accompany it. It is perfect to bring along to a barbecue, guaranteed to cool off the heat of a summer afternoon.
When I taste it, I think of lazy days in the backyard. I can see my grandmother, scented from tomato plant leaves, coming towards me from her garden with a basket of cucumbers. We have a lot of peeling to do.
I have to say that for flavor, I preferred fig balsamic vinegar even though it would not be a traditional choice. It went so nicely with the other tastes and the hint of fig added an interesting note.
Is it possible that only 2 tablespoons of sour cream was used to make this? I too added a little onion and loads of loads of pepper and had to add more sour cream. All in all good taste but something seems off with the measurements.
Very simple and easy and tasty, I like that a bunch of dill is left up to the discretion of the cook. I do not care much for dill, so only used a teaspoon and it was good for me, you may like more. Even better the next day and still crunchy, not mushy. I added a small amound of diced onion the second time making it, very good, thanks!

However, evenwłoszczyznais actually a myth. Queens experiment of bringing new flavors to the country did not go over very well. Poles hated everything she tried to serve them and shes been ridiculed many times because of it.
