🇭🇺Hungarian Goulash

Hungarian Goulash is a hearty and rustic stew that is a true icon of Hungarian cuisine. It’s a comforting, one-pot meal that features tender chunks of beef and vegetables, all simmered in a rich broth that is heavily seasoned with paprika. The generous amount of sweet Hungarian paprika gives the goulash its signature deep red color and a sweet, slightly smoky flavor that is not overly spicy. Caraway seeds add another layer of traditional, earthy aroma. It’s a perfect, warming dish for a cold day. While often thought of as a stew, a more traditional goulash is actually a bit thinner, like a soup. This recipe strikes a happy medium. Serve it with egg noodles or a hearty crusty bread for a truly satisfying meal.
