Elizabeth, you sound like you just left my mother's kitchen! Especially the very fine noodles in the soup. Weren't allowed to have anything else! What memories you just brought back. I make my Hungarian food when my hubby is out of town...he has no clue about culinary traditions. So much for having ancestors in the new world from the 1600s, huh!

If you are looking for a hungarian cookbook in english, I have two. One from the Culinary Arts collection that my mom had when I was a child and one I won on EBAY. If you are looking for something in particular, I'll be glad to copy it for you.

Thank you for the above website. I wish I could find more pages in
English...but I did find a couple.

In my house when I am cooking any Hungarian dish....I announce, we are
having Hungarian Soul food for dinner. I don't know how to make too many
dishes but do make the favorites of my childhood. Chicken Paprika; Pork,
Sauerkraut and sour cream; Goulash (plain and simple....meat, potatoes,
onions and paprika; cucumber salad again plain and simple...cukes, onion,
sour cream and salt and pepper; mushrooms with onions, paprika and sour
cream and the always popular noodles and sour cream sometimes with some pot
cheese added and sometimes with butter fried bread crumbs on top. A good
beef soup ...with lots of knuckle bones when they can be found....but
limited veggies....celery, carrots, parsnip and leeks served with very fine
noodles or barley always hits the spot.

My mother was first generation Hungarian but my father was Irish and German
so we had a very international menu.
