What Is The Difference Between American Goulash and Hungarian Goulash?
There are several differences between American goulash and Hungarian goulash. Hungarian goulash typically uses a type of stew meat instead of ground beef. You’ll also find that Hungarian goulash has lots of onions and different flavored seasonings than traditional American goulash. American goulash has pasta noodles, while Hungarian goulash has more of a homemade dumpling instead. You may also have heard of American goulash being called American chop suey. While they both have goulash in their name, they’re definitely very different meals.
Black olives – I love the taste of adding black olives to any kind of tomato-based pasta. This goulash recipe would be delicious with a few dice black olives. Add and 1/4 cup to enhance the flavor even more.
Mushrooms – if you are a huge mushroom fan, but it only makes sense to add some of your favorite veggies. You can go wild and added as many mushrooms as you see fit, but I usually try to stick to one-half cup or so.
Carrots – sometimes adding a few dice carrots to recipes like this slow cooker goulash is a great idea. Not only does it add a natural sweetness to the dish, it also gives a little bit more vibrant color to the goulash recipe.
