Once considered to be an inferior meat product, today the Polish head cheese is regarded as a unique gourmet delicacy. Depending on the seasonings, shape, and main ingredients, which often include brawn, offal, or blood, traditional Polish cuisine boasts with more than ten different head cheese varieties.

They are mostly prepared with pork, but some varieties exclusively use veal. Once popular in many cities bordering Germany, today they are prepared and enjoyed throughout the country. Regardless of the type, these texturally-exciting treats are usually enjoyed as cold cuts, commonly accompanied by bread and various meat products.
