June Meyer’s Authentic Hungarian Goulash (gulyas Leves)

Let us not fail to see in the manner of our Lord’s resurrection, a type and pledge of the resurrection of His believing people. The grave could not hold Him beyond the appointed time, and it shall not be able to hold them. A glorious angel was a witness of His rising, and glorious angels shall be the messengers who shall gather believers when they rise again. He rose with a renewed body, and yet a body, real, true, and material, and so also shall His people have a glorious body, and be like their Head. “When we see Him we shall be like Him” (1 Jn. 3:2.).

INSTRUCTIONS

Here is a recipe for authentic Hungarian Goulash I learned to make
from my grandmother and mother who were from Austria-Hungary. Every
family has its own version of Goulash. My family would NEVER consider
tomatos or green peppers or other spices in Goulash. Some other  dishes
would have tomato or green pepper, but not Goulash. Slow  cooking is
the secret and you can never use too much paprika. I like  to use 3
tablespoons. Hope you enjoy this dish, I have been raised on  it.
Regards, June Meyer.  Cut beef into 1 inch squares, add 1/2 tsp. salt.
Chop onions and  brown in shortening, add beef and paprika. Let beef
simmer in its own  juice along with salt and paprika for 1 hr. on low
heat. Add water,  diced potatoes and remaining salt. Cover and simmer
until potatoes  are done and meat is tender.  Prepare egg dumpling
batter: Add flour to unbeaten egg and salt. Mix  well. Let stand for
1/2 hour for flour to mellow. Drop by teaspoonful  into Goulash. Cover
and simmer 5 minutes after dumplings rise to  surface. Serve hot with
dollops of sour cream. Serves 6. Posted to  EAT-L Digest 25 November 96
