Beef Paprika Stew Viennese Style (Gulash)

There are many varieties of this dish. The Hungarians cook it a lil different, than the Austrians and Viennese people have their own Gulash recipes going on. So if you order the same dish in Vienna and in Hungary you probably are going to get 2 different dishes. Here I talk about a Gulash based on a Austrian / Viennese Style. It’s basically beef broth, Hungarian Paprika powder (it really makes a difference what kind of paprika powder you use.. so don’t expect it to come out that great – in Austria we grave that dish – if you substitute the paprika powder with anything you have at home that comes close ). I like that dish cause you can use it in so many ways. We eat dumblings, potatoes, spaetzles (its a german style pasta), Franks, rolls with it and it makes us very happy.

Goulas of Chanterelles

This is a very typical austrian dish, every family has their own recipe. In the early of fall we go searching for, no, finding mushrooms. Where i grow up it is quite easy to find chanterelles but as they are terrible expensive if you are not that lucky to be able to go into the woods and find food, it is possible to use other mushrooms or a combination of different kinds. Traditionally served with dumplings.

Baked Austrian Rice Pudding (“reisauflauf”)

One of my childhooddays favourites! And I still do like this very fragrant, aromatic sweet pie/tarte like dish. Use apples (you might want to add more sugar then) instead of bananas, mangos or raisins. Serve lukewarm with vanilla sauce as main dish or as dessert.

Cabbage With Noodles and Poppy Seed

Another version of cabbage and noodles. This recipe is from Teresa Givens in the St. Boniface Centennial Cookbook from Stuart, Nebraska. She specifies 1 small green cabbage.
