Cebularz is one of the most popular dishes in the Lublin area. The recipe for the pancake was passed down the generations, with written records since the nineteenth-century. The first to bake the pancake were Jews, selling their produce in Lublin Old Town. Before World War II they were already widely popular in Lublin Voivodeship.{{cite web|last1=Wschodni|first1=Dziennik|title=Legenda cebularzy - Dziennik Wschodni|url=http://www.dziennikwschodni.pl/kuchnia/legenda-cebularzy,n,1000114799.html|website=Dziennik Wschodni|accessdate=28 August 2017|language=pl}}
