Zapiekanki, today considered a cult Polish street food, have their roots in the 1970s, when there was a shortage of a variety of ingredients in the People's Republic of Poland and cooks experimented with the simple recipes available. Crispy baguette, mushrooms and cheese became a combination that quickly won the hearts of Poles. In those days, zapiekanki were mainly served at bazaars and railway stations, where they were a quick and cheap way to satisfy hunger. Over the years, the delicacy evolved - various sauces and toppings began to be added to the classic recipe, creating countless variations. Their charm lies in their simplicity and nostalgia, reminiscent of the flavours of yesteryear.
