HUNGARIAN FOOD - Hungarian Goulash - a traditional family recipe.

Hungarian Goulash

In my travels over the years, I have sampled this dish, Hungarian Goulash, a number of times. If prepared properly, it can be a great and hearty dish.

Once in a friends home, and it was, honestly an over-salted thick "mush".

Another time, I was in a small restaurant in Malmo, Sweden and they served this dish to me, and it was fantastic.

Its hearty flavors were blended together so well that each spoon was a treat for my taste buds.
