Boil:  Place pierogies into an excess of boiling water.  Boil gently, uncovered for 5 minutes.

Skillet:  Saute lightly in butter or oil over medium heat (300 degrees F), until lightly browned on both sides, approximately 3 minutes on each side.  If desired, serve with sauteed onions or browned butter.

Bake:  Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.  Place pierogies on a baking sheet coated with non-stick cooking spray.  Spray both sides of pierogies.  Bake for 18 to 20 minutes until lightly browned.  For best results turn pierogies over halfway through baking time.
