Yes. Some people make it like that. However the cooking time is different of those two kinds of meat. I like it made with beef, pork or lamb separately. 3 differently flavoured by the meat is my style of Gulyas. We say that in Hungary:As many houses - as many desire in taste.
Chef, I am Hungarian and trained at Le Cordon Bleu Culinary Institute but I first learned to cook from my Hungarian grandparents and Mom. I love your "mostly traditional" Hungarian Gulyás. In a perfect world this would be made over an open fire, not always duplicatable, so what you've done is excellent. Using authentic Hungarian paprika is key and I loved that you used parsnips and Marjoram, a dry herb that one of my Grandmothers always used. I use Hungarian smoked paprika as a final touch to bring in the element of smokiness that you'd get from an open fire. I hope you share more Hungarian/Hungarian-style recipes with us here on RUclips! Like a fellow subscriber mentioned, you are like the Bob Ross of culinary arts. Merci, köszönöm! 💖

I had the fortune of eating Goulash in the streets of Budapest, Hungary. Friends, let me tell you, there is nothing like it. It's been my favorite beef dish since.
One of my favorite memories of living in Frankfurt, GE was one night around Christmas we were shopping downtown for gifts with a German friend. It was bitter cold (can't believe this FL girl did that) with a sharp wind off the river. We wanted to warm up so our friend took us to a Keller. We went down the steps to the vaulted brick basement (prob. air raid shelter) where they had round tables each with their own light and high back upholstered chairs. We sat down and they brought a hearty red wine without us ordering it. Steffen said goulash and they brought steaming bowls that were large Kaiser rolls with the tops cut off and filled with the best goulashsuppe ever. I felt like I was a deep thinking European out of a movie.

I make a Hungarian goulash once a month in winter. I was taught by an old Yugoslavian friend of my mother's back in the day, no marjoram or Worcestershire obviously. I'm definitely trying them though. I prefer it as a stew, every time. Thanks, as always for sharing your expertise, enthusiasm and your humour. ✌ 🇦🇺
Going to Costco today. to buy my beef. I as a teen (30 years ago) had beef goulash in Vienna and it was served as a soup and to this day I still say it was the best beef Goulash I have ever had, something tells me that your recipe today is going to surpass all my expectations for the Best Beef Goulash in my world. Love you Chef!
Do Not go to Costco! Go to your local Butcher who has Pure Beef and Pork, grass fed, with No antibiotics, etc! It makes a world of difference. Support LOCAL, Support Mom & Pop Butcher stores! Get away from corporate groceries who feed you Questionable proteins and produce! Did you Not learn anything from the Plandemic???
I love goulash. I come from a region where goulash means american goulash (macaroni, ground beef) and paprika is something you put on deviled eggs to add color (not flavor). I make real goulash for family and friends and they are AMAZED. Real Hungarian-style paprika, and lots of it, is absolutely essential - if you live in the US, the generic (or smoked) stuff you find in the spice section of your supermarket is NOT an adequate substitute. I live in a rural area and buy mine online.
Dear Chef! I’m of Hungarian descent and have been making Gulyäs leves (soup) for about 40 years now. The only thing I have never added was Worcestershire sauce. I am definitely going to try that! Also I want to applaud you for using sweet Hungarian paprika! Once I made the mistake of buying a cheaper paprika…it was way too spicy! You can find Hungarian paprika in a European Deli store. It costs more, but so worth it!
I made this 2 days ago. Used leftover smoked chuck roast and half smoked paprika and half sweet. I will try your recipe next time as it looks better than what I made. Thanks Chef
Oh, and I forgot--best cooking channel on RUclips. (Not saying there aren't other amazing ones, I watch SE Asian street food videos all the time. But Chef is #1)
I agree, this is the man who single-handedly taught me proper techniques without the showmanship and BS you find on other channels. Chef JP is a great teacher, even my grandmas are impressed by my cooking now.
Now, I can do the proper Hungarian Goulash from scratch. I used to buy Knorr Goulash mix packages in the past. Somehow, they started to taste more and more bland in the last few years, requiring two packages instead of one. I asked myself why did I bother buying Knorr mix, then this video showed up! Thanks!
My husband is an immigrant from Bavaria, GE and I have had a terrible time getting off the Knorr mix. But we live in FL and he won't eat soup in the Summer. Hoping he will give this method a try.
Austrian here. Since the Austrian-Hungarian monarchy these meals are traditional here too. In my opinion the characteristic of Gulash is that the meat isn't roasted, but only cooked. But as always, do it as you like! 😋 But do try the traditional Viennese "juicy" Gulash (in German: "Wiener Saftgulasch", a stew) too! Use same amount in weight for onion and beef (shank is traditional), slightly roast the onions, add the beef, sweet pakrika powder (as shown here) and concentrated tomato paste, fill with stock and add seasoning ( salt, pepper, marjoram, bay leaf). Cook it for at least 3 hours and then bind it with some starch. Serve with potatos, bread dumplings, potato dumplings, or spätzle. Every time you warm it up again, it will taste better! 😋
I was in Budapest last year, it's easily shaping as one of the best cities in Europe. It's clean, people are nice, got amazing views, prices are reasonable and there are no areas "you're not supposed to go" like Paris or Berlin. I got a few kinds of paprika, which are surely priced and packaged for tourists, but it just had to be done. I hadn't set onto making goulash yet, but since Chef Jean-Pierre now brought a recipe it means it's time.
Hi Chef, thank you very much! I’m absolutely sure your goulash is very delicious but it is a French goulash because you forgot to add a chili pepper and of course added butter. Chef , I’m not complaining, I’m learning from you all the time.
@@aiami2695 you mean Budapest, dont remind us that Romania joined the alied forces on the last day of war and they got 2/3 of our country and i need a pasport to visit my grandma.
Yes, Gulyás is a soup! Finally someone who is not Hungarian says it right! It's not an authentic Hungarian gulyás, but it's very close and looks good. AND yes, cooking has to be fun and creative! What you do is definitely creative and fun cooking. It must be delicious. Well done!
I am Hungarian, making my living as a cook in Canada. I made/make this dish to international crowd a lot; everybody loves it. / This is your version of GOULASH. / However we have Gulyas and Gulyas soup (two different dish), made of pork or beef or lamb. We also have Bean Gulyas, as well. Gulyas have meat and onion, potato and egg drops and spices. Gulyas soup have all the same plus other variety of vegetables and more liquid.🤩Love your recipes Chef Jean-Pierre - Sorry, this' not one of them. Anyway thank you for sharing them.
Chef: I enjoy every video you put out. You have changed my cooking going forward for the better. I decided to send you a ‘thanks’ every new video going forward . I’m hoping to start a new trend for us regulars that have been around a while and can’t wait for each video to come out. It’s not much money but if people join me, you can afford to pay Jack more money. You both deserve it. Cheers!
I now want to make this. I only have Spanish paprika though, I put that in everything its so good. Lately I've been buying only the best ingredients and I've noticed a massive difference. I like to sear my meat in my AllClad stainless steel pan in batches until its extremely browned. I love to make large batches of stews. A few hours cooking in bulk and I've not got to cook for the next few days. The best thing about this channel is Jean-Pierre doesn't rush through the recipes unlike pretty much every video recipe on RUclips. Thanks for coming to my TED talk.
I saw this last night and gave it a try today, and wasn't disappointed, seemed like I was eating real food for a change. I didn't measure carefully and probably put a little too much sweet paprika, but still tasted good.
I really like your attitude, chef, it's all about slow cooking, meat and some vegetables- and that adds so much variety, different meats, different sauces, different greens- I like it with a lot of parseley and dill- just do whatever you want and you get those tender bits of meat, gravy and your favourite ingridients.
I have some half-sharp paprika (I got it from Penzey’s), and I wonder how it would be in this dish? It has a definite flavor, very bold. I guess there’s only one way to find out, right? Also, I made some of JP’s stock last year that I’ve kept in the freezer (it should be good for another 16 years), so mine should be close to this. I may wait a couple months for when it’s not so hot, but I definitely going to try this one.
I grew up on this food as my as my dad was 100% Hungarian and also a 1st generation American. We also ate a lot of chicken paprikas. Thank you for the video.
Looks great, Chef! There are a few minor differences from the Goulash I learned to make in Budapest, but if I were to taste that, I’m sure I would recognize it as authentic ~ what’s authentic, anyway!? And you’re absolutely right: Goulash is normally a soup, or at least a very brothy stew.
My mom made (might still) make goulash on occasion, it was NOTHING like this, but it was more like a spaghetti...... this looks absolutely FABULOUS!!!!!!!! I'm making it tomorrow! Thanks chef!
Where I am, it’s winter, cold and pouring with rain and a goulash is just perfect, but I added a lot more paprika, including some smoked Spanish paprika, to give it the kick I thought it needed. One needs to perspire a little to especially enjoy this meal! Glad you showed us this more international dish!
I had to get the ingredients right away and it came out Amazing!! I made the stew version and added some spinach and served it with pita bread and the leftovers I served over rice. Another great recipe! Thank you, Chef!🙏🏾
I love this! I would love to have seen you make langos, the Hungarian fried bread, to accompany the gulyas. That’s the way I was taught to serve it. Rub a a cut fresh clove of garlic on the langos and sprinkle with salt. Yum! The best dish in the world!😋
@@optimalkfrt I am from Vojvodina, here it is a staple side dish, or even just plain penne pasta. Then again, goulash is made as a stew here, and is served as a main course rather than a soup.
Chef! You just make day! Anytime I get to watch a new video of yours it just puts a smile on my face. You really are a treasure. I've been following you since you only had about 100k subs. I'm so happy you have blessed us all with your knowledge and wit!
Chef you are absolutely correct. Traditional and delicious. Good recipe again. ❤ Can you give us Mediterranean - Balkans recipes with French and Italian twist. 😊
My mother used to make a Goulash with zucchini and pasta. I've been dying to figure out the ingredients she used, since the recipe was my grandmother's and both have passed. I'll use this video as a base and try to recreate the dish. Thanks chef.
I backpacked in Europe in the early 80s with not a lot of money. When I was in Vienna I ate Hungarian goulash everyday. It was served everywhere and it was so cheap and so absolutely delicious!
We love you Chef Jean-Pierre All your recipies are so inventive and inspiring. In addition, the depth of your detail really makes the recipies easy to follow. You are so entertaining that we don't want to miss any of your videos. Thank you for your enthusiasm, energy and incredible knowledge!
Parsley is wonderful. There's a reason people sprinkle chopped parsley over everything. It adds freshness and color but never overwhelms the other flavors. For an unusual fruit salad, try adding a little to strawberries, melon, and shaved fennel.
100% agree about the paprika, it is a game changer for so many foods, I use it in cabbage soup, to marinate most of my meats, as a seasoning on roasted potatoes....
I made this yesterday for my Mexican friends and it was a big hit! One thing I love about living in Mexico is exposing my Mexican friends to cuisine they otherwise would never have the opportunity to try.
Same thing I love about cooking for my friends in New York. Mexican food being my current favorite. Lol. It’s what I don’t understand about the hundreds of Bangladeshi people I work with. One has lived in New York since 1975 and his wife has never made anything other than chicken and rice and beef and rice. That would drive me insane. Especially here in New York
So versatile. Thank you, Chef ❤. I prefer soup because more people I feed would want soup, but it is always good to options. I love the non-traditional wine because I have never put wine in my soup before only in my meat stews. ❤❤❤
I made this yesterday for myself and my girlfriend. We loved it. I didn’t use turnip nor potatoes. I did make a butter egg noodles and it was amazing! From the first bite to cleaning the plate with buttered bread it was incredibly delicious. Thank you Chef and God bless you and Jack!
My mother cooked goulash with sausages instead of meat in Finland in the 70s, meat was rare and expensive at that time, I have been a fan of paprika ever since.
@Chef Jean-Pierre I made this dish today, and to not make Hungarians sad I made it is a soup, and this is a very very delicious dish! Thank you very mudh for the journey in cooking you have inspired me to take which has both made me better at cooking and also made it vastly easier to cook. Your love of the craft really lift my spirit and has made cooking an even better and joyful experience!
JP, I found a video of you from long ago cooking on "Sunshine Cuisine" cooking Sambuca Shrimp. You had a large mane of hair back then. Also, you said that adding olive oil keeps the butter from burning, and you cut the shallot horizontally before fine dicing it. Both of those you now say don't do. My how things have changed. I must say that your infectious personality has not changed. Too funny. 🤣🤣🤣
It’s been a long time since but whenever we went on a family skiing trip at the end of the day our kids and us enjoyed a good bowl of goulash. Good memories I will definitely make this recipe and it will be delicious I’m sure. Thanks Jean Pierre.
I'm from Hungary and I like this version I never had it with butter... The best version of this is when you use young deer meat... Sweet paprika (highest quality as possible) is key! Try it with freshly baked bread! Thanks Chef for the video!!!
@dhannamangroo3865 The new thing he has been doing is “potato Mondays,” so check out his older video catalogue and stay tuned for more. I’m sure he’ll post a video on it soon! Also, much love to Trinidad and Tobago from here in the US 🇺🇸
Chef . You are a culinary captain ,Steering us on a cuisine cruise, when the weekend arrives and i cook, I will always be guided to a safe port...for those about to cook....we salute you..
Enjoying the many recipes your channel has done, especially the molten chocolate cake with ice cream. You speak our language - YUMMY! The humor along with the genuine goodness brings a brightness to each day's closure so thank you for that. Question; pizza? When? Would enjoy your version of Neapolitan if possible? Thank you and God Bless!
I've been making a Wiener (Viennese for non German Speakers) version I found in a cookbook for many years now. It's basically the same, but you only use beef and onion, 1:1 by weight. It comes out as a delicious hardy stew, and it always impresses. Great video chef, this looks absolutely amazing!
the hungarian other variant is the Pörkölt, that compared to the Gulyas, can be with different meats, not only beef. There is a third variant, the Szegedin Gulyas, where they put Sauerkraut and quite some caraway seeds, like you did.I do prefer the stew variant or the Szegedin one.The potatoes inside I am not so convinced, very well goes croqeuttes, fusilli pasta or potatoe puree. Lovely show, after having received my STAUB pot last week, I will right do one again ;-)
My wife is Hungarian and I can assure everyone this is authentic. I see my wife cooking and she follows all these steps. I have not seen her add parsnips in goulash, but she uses them in chicken soup. And she never uses dairy, so there is no butter in our goulash at home. This is the real deal. My wife makes it less thick and more soupy. Some Hungarians might add sour cream. Good job Chef Jean-Pierre. This is mostly traditional goulash. And if your paprika doesn't say Hungarian, then it is pooprika. Sweet paprika is always my wife's choice and most of ours comes directly from Hungary from friends and relatives. In Humgary, it is called goulash leves(h)., because leves is soup.
I make my Hungarian Goulash the same as you as a soup, but my family likes it thicker so I add some macaroni or shells to absorb the extra fluid so it is thicker like they want. Works for us and I love the Goulash anyway.
As a practicing Gulyas maker from Hungary, I can approve this recipe! I'd use parsley root instead of parsnips and use caraway powder instead of seeds. Butter is an unexpected twist. I'll try it next time. :)
You didn’t mention it, but the goulash can be served also over noodles. That’s how i had it as a child. Been a long time since i tasted this dish. You made it beautifully. Guess I’m due for a “revisit!” 😃 Thanks for teaching us! Merci
this video is lovely! looks absolutely delicious ❤️ my gramma (straight from the motherland 🇭🇺) just turned 90 and can’t cook as much as she used to, it’s too much work for her i completely understand, it truly is! i remember when she put her arm around me and told me- “my girl, when i am gone, i hope you will pass these recipes with our heritage down for a long time. i know the boys cannot do it haha!” tough shoes to fill, no one can cook like gramma! my dad and brothers did tell me that my cooking is a great runner up to hers. i’m so proud of that. ❤️ could you please do a video on hungarian cabbage rolls? (töltött káposzta) and szalonna bread? and please remember, there is no such thing as “too much paprika” 😄 my dad was the one who got me into your videos, we just love you lol 😊 köszönöm chef ❤️
My mom made goulash pretty often when I was younger. It was slightly different from your recipe. Hers was more like ground beef in spaghetti sauce with elbows or shells. I think it might have had carrots in it as well. It wasn’t soupy at all. Probably one of my favorite things to eat. I’m going to have to check with my aunt to see if she has the recipe. Maybe my dad. But my dad would boil frozen Brussels sprouts every week that were the worst. Of course he would pair that with liver. I’ve since come to enjoy Brussels sprouts cooked the right way but not liver.
Good evening Chef. I made this tonight per your instructions, and everyone loved it. Carrots and parsnips were a bit undercooked. But that was my fault. Thank you again for everything you do.
"You don't have to add butter but you don't have to drink wine either" Profound wisdom! Chef JP is my new guru
😂😂😂
❤️❤️❤️👍
Lol very wise indeed!
He's so right, you live only once.
Butter ain't bad anyway. Seed oils are.
Chef called it long ago by his love for delicious butter.
My Grandpa always told me to take half beef and half pork . I do my Gulash like that til today and keep the old man in my loving memories.
Yes. Some people make it like that. However the cooking time is different of those two kinds of meat. I like it made with beef, pork or lamb separately. 3 differently flavoured by the meat is my style of Gulyas. We say that in Hungary:As many houses - as many desire in taste.

Love you Chef!
Parsnips!
Do Not go to Costco! Go to your local Butcher who has Pure Beef and Pork, grass fed, with No antibiotics, etc! It makes a world of difference. Support LOCAL, Support Mom & Pop Butcher stores! Get away from corporate groceries who feed you Questionable proteins and produce! Did you Not learn anything from the Plandemic???
I love goulash. I come from a region where goulash means american goulash (macaroni, ground beef) and paprika is something you put on deviled eggs to add color (not flavor). I make real goulash for family and friends and they are AMAZED. Real Hungarian-style paprika, and lots of it, is absolutely essential - if you live in the US, the generic (or smoked) stuff you find in the spice section of your supermarket is NOT an adequate substitute. I live in a rural area and buy mine online.
Ya... American Midwest 'goulash' is awful lol.
Dear Chef! I’m of Hungarian descent and have been making Gulyäs leves (soup) for about 40 years now. The only thing I have never added was Worcestershire sauce. I am definitely going to try that! Also I want to applaud you for using sweet Hungarian paprika! Once I made the mistake of buying a cheaper paprika…it was way too spicy! You can find Hungarian paprika in a European Deli store. It costs more, but so worth it!
I make this for my BFF all the time. It's one of her winter favs that I make.
(It is winter here in Australia)
I made this 2 days ago. Used leftover smoked chuck roast and half smoked paprika and half sweet. I will try your recipe next time as it looks better than what I made. Thanks Chef
Oh, and I forgot--best cooking channel on RUclips. (Not saying there aren't other amazing ones, I watch SE Asian street food videos all the time. But Chef is #1)
I agree, this is the man who single-handedly taught me proper techniques without the showmanship and BS you find on other channels. Chef JP is a great teacher, even my grandmas are impressed by my cooking now.
Can never go wrong with a Gulasch, as we call em in germany. Thanks for being here for me in these trying times…
Now, I can do the proper Hungarian Goulash from scratch. I used to buy Knorr Goulash mix packages in the past. Somehow, they started to taste more and more bland in the last few years, requiring two packages instead of one. I asked myself why did I bother buying Knorr mix, then this video showed up! Thanks!
My husband is an immigrant from Bavaria, GE and I have had a terrible time getting off the Knorr mix. But we live in FL and he won't eat soup in the Summer. Hoping he will give this method a try.
Austrian here. Since the Austrian-Hungarian monarchy these meals are traditional here too. In my opinion the characteristic of Gulash is that the meat isn't roasted, but only cooked. But as always, do it as you like! 😋
But do try the traditional Viennese "juicy" Gulash (in German: "Wiener Saftgulasch", a stew) too! Use same amount in weight for onion and beef (shank is traditional), slightly roast the onions, add the beef, sweet pakrika powder (as shown here) and concentrated tomato paste, fill with stock and add seasoning ( salt, pepper, marjoram, bay leaf). Cook it for at least 3 hours and then bind it with some starch. Serve with potatos, bread dumplings, potato dumplings, or spätzle. Every time you warm it up again, it will taste better! 😋
Gulasch schmeckt am nächsten Tag so oder so am besten!
Bitte KEINE Stärke ins Gulasch! Die Bindung kommt von den Zwiebeln.
NO STARCH IN GULASCH!
But anyway…do it as you like…it’s your gulyas 😉
That’s my receipt too, the best taste and without starch , but with good red wine in goulash 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
I was in Budapest last year, it's easily shaping as one of the best cities in Europe. It's clean, people are nice, got amazing views, prices are reasonable and there are no areas "you're not supposed to go" like Paris or Berlin. I got a few kinds of paprika, which are surely priced and packaged for tourists, but it just had to be done. I hadn't set onto making goulash yet, but since Chef Jean-Pierre now brought a recipe it means it's time.
👍👍👍❤️
Hi Chef, thank you very much! I’m absolutely sure your goulash is very delicious but it is a French goulash because you forgot to add a chili pepper and of course added butter. Chef , I’m not complaining, I’m learning from you all the time.
Very untraditional but am grateful that people are embracing our Hungarian food/heritage! Looks delicious chef 😊
Watching this on an empty stomach is making me very Hungarian.
Funny.
Very nice beef Ratatouille from Bucharest 🤣🤣👍👍
@@aiami2695 you mean Budapest, dont remind us that Romania joined the alied forces on the last day of war and they got 2/3 of our country and i need a pasport to visit my grandma.
@@laszlofekete1405 majd visszavesszuk 😉
😂
Yes, Gulyás is a soup! Finally someone who is not Hungarian says it right!
It's not an authentic Hungarian gulyás, but it's very close and looks good.
AND yes, cooking has to be fun and creative! What you do is definitely creative and fun cooking. It must be delicious.
Well done!
I am Hungarian, making my living as a cook in Canada. I made/make this dish to international crowd a lot; everybody loves it. / This is your version of GOULASH. / However we have Gulyas and Gulyas soup (two different dish), made of pork or beef or lamb. We also have Bean Gulyas, as well. Gulyas have meat and onion, potato and egg drops and spices. Gulyas soup have all the same plus other variety of vegetables and more liquid.🤩Love your recipes Chef Jean-Pierre - Sorry, this' not one of them. Anyway thank you for sharing them.
👍👍👍
@@SzerenM Thank you for sharing. It is good to know.
YES! Chef Jean-Pierre making one of my favorite beef recipes, This is the video I've been waiting for!
You are the only chef that mentioined beef cheeks good for making stew. I agree I think they are best meet for making stew.
In the Southern hemisphere we have Winter now, stew / soup is the order of the day. Goulash is very near my first choice. This looks absolutely 😋!
Chef: I enjoy every video you put out. You have changed my cooking going forward for the better. I decided to send you a ‘thanks’ every new video going forward . I’m hoping to start a new trend for us regulars that have been around a while and can’t wait for each video to come out. It’s not much money but if people join me, you can afford to pay Jack more money. You both deserve it. Cheers!
I now want to make this. I only have Spanish paprika though, I put that in everything its so good. Lately I've been buying only the best ingredients and I've noticed a massive difference. I like to sear my meat in my AllClad stainless steel pan in batches until its extremely browned.
I love to make large batches of stews. A few hours cooking in bulk and I've not got to cook for the next few days.
The best thing about this channel is Jean-Pierre doesn't rush through the recipes unlike pretty much every video recipe on RUclips.
Thanks for coming to my TED talk.
Your recipe is only as good as the ingredients you’re putting in better ingredients makes better recipes! 😊👍
I saw this last night and gave it a try today, and wasn't disappointed, seemed like I was eating real food for a change.
I didn't measure carefully and probably put a little too much sweet paprika, but still tasted good.
I don't even need to see the whole video AND I KNOW IT WILL BE A GREAT RECIPE :) ! Nice one Chef !
I really like your attitude, chef, it's all about slow cooking, meat and some vegetables- and that adds so much variety, different meats, different sauces, different greens- I like it with a lot of parseley and dill- just do whatever you want and you get those tender bits of meat, gravy and your favourite ingridients.
I just ordered Hungarian sweet paprika online. Can't wait to make this!😋😋 TY Chef.
I got some paprika from Walmart. I could feel my Hungarian grandparents frowning at me. Im sorry.
I have some half-sharp paprika (I got it from Penzey’s), and I wonder how it would be in this dish? It has a definite flavor, very bold. I guess there’s only one way to find out, right? Also, I made some of JP’s stock last year that I’ve kept in the freezer (it should be good for another 16 years), so mine should be close to this. I may wait a couple months for when it’s not so hot, but I definitely going to try this one.
I grew up on this food as my as my dad was 100% Hungarian and also a 1st generation American. We also ate a lot of chicken paprikas. Thank you for the video.
Looks great, Chef! There are a few minor differences from the Goulash I learned to make in Budapest, but if I were to taste that, I’m sure I would recognize it as authentic ~ what’s authentic, anyway!? And you’re absolutely right: Goulash is normally a soup, or at least a very brothy stew.
Thanks!
Thank you 🙏 ❤️
My mom made (might still) make goulash on occasion, it was NOTHING like this, but it was more like a spaghetti...... this looks absolutely FABULOUS!!!!!!!! I'm making it tomorrow! Thanks chef!
Where I am, it’s winter, cold and pouring with rain and a goulash is just perfect, but I added a lot more paprika, including some smoked Spanish paprika, to give it the kick I thought it needed. One needs to perspire a little to especially enjoy this meal! Glad you showed us this more international dish!
👍👍👍❤️
I had to get the ingredients right away and it came out Amazing!! I made the stew version and added some spinach and served it with pita bread and the leftovers I served over rice. Another great recipe! Thank you, Chef!🙏🏾
Good day to all. A MUST!
I love this! I would love to have seen you make langos, the Hungarian fried bread, to accompany the gulyas. That’s the way I was taught to serve it. Rub a a cut fresh clove of garlic on the langos and sprinkle with salt. Yum! The best dish in the world!😋
Exactly so!
I Hungarian and this is the first time I see suggesting it. Though what Jean-Pierre cooked is not a goulash either, the original is a soup.
Or you can serve it with a side dish called túrós csusza, basically pasta with bacon and cheese or cream.
@@optimalkfrt I am from Vojvodina, here it is a staple side dish, or even just plain penne pasta. Then again, goulash is made as a stew here, and is served as a main course rather than a soup.
@@ЂорђеКозић Oh yum! I haven’t had that since the last time I was in Hungary a looooong time ago when my grandmother made it.
Chef! You just make day! Anytime I get to watch a new video of yours it just puts a smile on my face. You really are a treasure. I've been following you since you only had about 100k subs. I'm so happy you have blessed us all with your knowledge and wit!
🙏❤️
Chef you are absolutely correct. Traditional and delicious. Good recipe again. ❤ Can you give us Mediterranean - Balkans recipes with French and Italian twist. 😊
Hungary is NOT a balkan country!!
This is a fantastic recipe from a fantastic chef, i would love to see his take on the New Zealand dessert Pavlova
My mother used to make a Goulash with zucchini and pasta. I've been dying to figure out the ingredients she used, since the recipe was my grandmother's and both have passed. I'll use this video as a base and try to recreate the dish. Thanks chef.
I backpacked in Europe in the early 80s with not a lot of money. When I was in Vienna I ate Hungarian goulash everyday. It was served everywhere and it was so cheap and so absolutely delicious!
We love you Chef Jean-Pierre All your recipies are so inventive and inspiring. In addition, the depth of your detail really makes the recipies easy to follow. You are so entertaining that we don't want to miss any of your videos. Thank you for your enthusiasm, energy and incredible knowledge!
Parsley is wonderful. There's a reason people sprinkle chopped parsley over everything. It adds freshness and color but never overwhelms the other flavors. For an unusual fruit salad, try adding a little to strawberries, melon, and shaved fennel.
100% agree about the paprika, it is a game changer for so many foods, I use it in cabbage soup, to marinate most of my meats, as a seasoning on roasted potatoes....
I made this yesterday for my Mexican friends and it was a big hit! One thing I love about living in Mexico is exposing my Mexican friends to cuisine they otherwise would never have the opportunity to try.
Same thing I love about cooking for my friends in New York. Mexican food being my current favorite. Lol. It’s what I don’t understand about the hundreds of Bangladeshi people I work with. One has lived in New York since 1975 and his wife has never made anything other than chicken and rice and beef and rice. That would drive me insane. Especially here in New York
I’ve been waiting for this one. Rushed to the store and it’s already in the crock pot finishing. Looking forward to it, thank you chef!
So versatile. Thank you, Chef ❤. I prefer soup because more people I feed would want soup, but it is always good to options. I love the non-traditional wine because I have never put wine in my soup before only in my meat stews. ❤❤❤
Mashed potatoes are great with soup or stew, that looks amazing and delicious. Parsley is very tasty. Thankyou Chef JP
I made this yesterday for myself and my girlfriend. We loved it. I didn’t use turnip nor potatoes. I did make a butter egg noodles and it was amazing! From the first bite to cleaning the plate with buttered bread it was incredibly delicious. Thank you Chef and God bless you and Jack!
My mother cooked goulash with sausages instead of meat in Finland in the 70s, meat was rare and expensive at that time, I have been a fan of paprika ever since.
My favourite winter food. Thanks Chef, you are the best ‼️
Chef you are genius! And I love how you give us stuff we can make that’s is things we can really make! I love all of your videos!! Thank you Chef❤
@Chef Jean-Pierre I made this dish today, and to not make Hungarians sad I made it is a soup, and this is a very very delicious dish! Thank you very mudh for the journey in cooking you have inspired me to take which has both made me better at cooking and also made it vastly easier to cook.
Your love of the craft really lift my spirit and has made cooking an even better and joyful experience!
I don’t care if it’s a soup or a stew, it looks amazing! My mouth is watering now! Fantastic Chef. Many thanks!😊😊
👍👍👍
I love you chef you're the best inspire me in culinary ,God bless Uganda ,God bless America
🙏🙏🙏❤️
JP, I found a video of you from long ago cooking on "Sunshine Cuisine" cooking Sambuca Shrimp. You had a large mane of hair back then. Also, you said that adding olive oil keeps the butter from burning, and you cut the shallot horizontally before fine dicing it. Both of those you now say don't do. My how things have changed. I must say that your infectious personality has not changed. Too funny. 🤣🤣🤣
Ah perfect timing! I just got done sliding a pot roast (from your Easy Pot Roast recipe) into the oven and sat down with a cup of coffee.
It’s been a long time since but whenever we went on a family skiing trip at the end of the day our kids and us enjoyed a good bowl of goulash. Good memories I will definitely make this recipe and it will be delicious I’m sure. Thanks Jean Pierre.
Always enjoy your cooking skills & we try & love your dishes. Thanks for coming to the RUclips universe Chef
I'm from Hungary and I like this version
I never had it with butter...
The best version of this is when you use young deer meat...
Sweet paprika (highest quality as possible) is key!
Try it with freshly baked bread!
Thanks Chef for the video!!!
Good morning watching from T&T🇹🇹
Hi can you show us how you do scalloped potato ?
@dhannamangroo3865 The new thing he has been doing is “potato Mondays,” so check out his older video catalogue and stay tuned for more. I’m sure he’ll post a video on it soon! Also, much love to Trinidad and Tobago from here in the US 🇺🇸
God Bless You Chef! ❤ Always great cooking ❤
I really enjoy your energetic presentations
Oh it beautiful and wonderful masterpiece. Thank you Chef
My father made this. Thank you Chef.
Chef . You are a culinary captain ,Steering us on a cuisine cruise, when the weekend arrives and i cook, I will always be guided to a safe port...for those about to cook....we salute you..
Enjoying the many recipes your channel has done, especially the molten chocolate cake with ice cream. You speak our language - YUMMY! The humor along with the genuine goodness brings a brightness to each day's closure so thank you for that. Question; pizza? When? Would enjoy your version of Neapolitan if possible? Thank you and God Bless!
Thank you so much 😊
Sounds fantastic Chef! I have learned so much from you! Thank you :)
I've been making a Wiener (Viennese for non German Speakers) version I found in a cookbook for many years now. It's basically the same, but you only use beef and onion, 1:1 by weight. It comes out as a delicious hardy stew, and it always impresses.
Great video chef, this looks absolutely amazing!
Accompaniments to this - buttered flat noodles every time, carb tastic !
If you want it to be "traditional" you eat it with bread, nothing else
It was great to see you make a traditional hungarian dish yet again. Thank you for showing this to the audience.
Greetings from Hungary! :D
the hungarian other variant is the Pörkölt, that compared to the Gulyas, can be with different meats, not only beef. There is a third variant, the Szegedin Gulyas, where they put Sauerkraut and quite some caraway seeds, like you did.I do prefer the stew variant or the Szegedin one.The potatoes inside I am not so convinced, very well goes croqeuttes, fusilli pasta or potatoe puree. Lovely show, after having received my STAUB pot last week, I will right do one again ;-)
👍👍👍❤️
I'm Hungerian.... always hungry 😁
My wife is Hungarian and I can assure everyone this is authentic. I see my wife cooking and she follows all these steps. I have not seen her add parsnips in goulash, but she uses them in chicken soup. And she never uses dairy, so there is no butter in our goulash at home. This is the real deal. My wife makes it less thick and more soupy. Some Hungarians might add sour cream. Good job Chef Jean-Pierre. This is mostly traditional goulash. And if your paprika doesn't say Hungarian, then it is pooprika. Sweet paprika is always my wife's choice and most of ours comes directly from Hungary from friends and relatives. In Humgary, it is called goulash leves(h)., because leves is soup.
Thank You Chef. I am travelling to Budapest tomorrow, so I definitely won't miss it.
Another A+ for the perfect dish done right. Thank you.
this basic stew process is perfect for lots of one pot dishes... this looks delicious!
I make my Hungarian Goulash the same as you as a soup, but my family likes it thicker so I add some macaroni or shells to absorb the extra fluid so it is thicker like they want. Works for us and I love the Goulash anyway.
best charming tv chef in the word. Keep up the good work mon ami. Love from Sweden.
Maybe you could do a "boy scouts goulash" which uses ground beef and has elbow macaroni boiled in the stew. Definitely a distinct dish
J'en ai l'eau à la bouche! Je vais faire cette recette tout de suite!!!
As a practicing Gulyas maker from Hungary, I can approve this recipe!
I'd use parsley root instead of parsnips and use caraway powder instead of seeds.
Butter is an unexpected twist. I'll try it next time. :)
You didn’t mention it, but the goulash can be served also over noodles.
That’s how i had it as a child.
Been a long time since i tasted this dish.
You made it beautifully.
Guess I’m due for a “revisit!” 😃
Thanks for teaching us!
Merci
this video is lovely! looks absolutely delicious ❤️
my gramma (straight from the motherland 🇭🇺) just turned 90 and can’t cook as much as she used to, it’s too much work for her i completely understand, it truly is!
i remember when she put her arm around me and told me- “my girl, when i am gone, i hope you will pass these recipes with our heritage down for a long time. i know the boys cannot do it haha!”
tough shoes to fill, no one can cook like gramma! my dad and brothers did tell me that my cooking is a great runner up to hers. i’m so proud of that. ❤️
could you please do a video on hungarian cabbage rolls? (töltött káposzta) and szalonna bread?
and please remember, there is no such thing as “too much paprika” 😄
my dad was the one who got me into your videos, we just love you lol 😊
köszönöm chef ❤️
My mom made goulash pretty often when I was younger. It was slightly different from your recipe. Hers was more like ground beef in spaghetti sauce with elbows or shells. I think it might have had carrots in it as well. It wasn’t soupy at all. Probably one of my favorite things to eat. I’m going to have to check with my aunt to see if she has the recipe. Maybe my dad. But my dad would boil frozen Brussels sprouts every week that were the worst. Of course he would pair that with liver. I’ve since come to enjoy Brussels sprouts cooked the right way but not liver.
I am definitely making this tonight. Yummmm
Good evening Chef.
I made this tonight per your instructions, and everyone loved it.
Carrots and parsnips were a bit undercooked. But that was my fault.
Thank you again for everything you do.
I had it in Hungary and it was soooo good.
