Stuffed cabbage is quite common in Central Eastern European kitchens, and Hungarian töltött káposzta is made of cooked cabbage (mostly pickled) filled with pork mince, mixed rice and flavored with the unmissable paprika, pepper and tejföl. It is a typical dish around Easter and Christmas time. Although mainly a homemade dish, most Hungarian taverns keep it on their menu.

Pálinka is a traditional Hungarian alcoholic beverage

2022-10-24 19:14:56 UTC

Hungarians really enjoy this beverage and it is internationally popular and Hungary is well known for this drink. It is made out of leftover fruits and other kinds of similar foods and it is left to age for quite a while. Its taste is quite bitter and it is very strong in terms of alcohol. But it is worth giving a try if you like to drink these kinds of drinks.

Lángos

2022-10-25 07:08:17 UTC

Hungarians’ all-time favorite dish is unquestionably lángos: a deep-fried flat bread that is certainly something to avoid on a diet. Lángos is served as a satisfying alternative to bread. What makes it so beloved is the endless varieties of toppings that come with it. It is usually eaten with garlic sauce, cheese, tejföl (sour cream), or even sausages.

Noémi, Hungary

Főzelék is such a unique Hungarian dish it can’t be translated into English. Though it looks like a soup at first sight, a more accurate description might be a thick vegetable stew. Főzelék is one of the few healthy choices on the list of national dishes and, being practical and easy to make, it is a typical home-cooked dish. There are special főzelék bars spread around cities, making it an ideal choice for a quick, healthy and very Hungarian dining experience. There are many variations including potato, peas, beans, lentils and carrot főzelék, all made by simmering and thickened by flour mixed with sour cream.

“Főzelék is a Hungarian type of food and this food there is only in Hungary in the world.
It is like soup, but it is sicker. It can be made with different vegetables ex.: potato, bean, vegetable marrow, pea.
It is a main meal. It can be eaten all seasons. You can put a lot of things onto “főzelék” ex.: boiled and fried eggs, cooked meats. I really like this type of food and it is very healthy.

~Ingredients
2 cups of ground wheat
2 tablespoons of rice
2 cups boiled chickpeas
2 cups boiled beans
150 grams of dried apricots
150 grams of dried figs
150 grams of raisins
a little less than 1 cup of nuts
2 liters of water (for cooking the wheat)
4 liters of hot water (to add as the water decreases)
1 teaspoon cloves
1 teacup of water (to boil the clove)
1.5 cups of hot milk
3 cups granulated sugar
1 flick salt
1 flick black pepper
~Making Steps
First, let's boil the chickpeas and beans separately.
Let's wash the wheat, put it in a saucepan, add boiling water to it and boil for 10 minutes. Let's strain the yellow water that comes out. Let's do the same process one more time and strain the water.
Then add about 2 liters of water to it and boil the wheat for about 50 minutes. (If you wish, you can boil it twice in the evening, strain the water and then soak it in hot water until the morning. If you soak it in the evening, it will be enough to boil for 15 minutes.).
Let's chop the dried apricots and dried figs small.
Then, we take these chopped fruits and raisins into a large bowl, add hot water to it and let it stand.
Do not forget to add hot water as Decently as necessary. Let's add a little more hot water to our wheat that is running out of water.
Let's add washed rice, cooked chickpeas, boiled beans, small chopped apricots, figs and raisins to the wheat that we have boiled for about 50 minutes and add it to the water by filtering and boil for about 15 minutes.
Let's take a clove in a small coffee pot and add the water and let it boil for 10 minutes.
In the meantime, let's add hot water again on our wheat, which is running out of water.
Finally, add the clove water, nuts, hot milk, sugar, optional salt, pepper that we passed through a strainer, mix and boil for about 15-20 minutes more.
Let's divide the ashura we have prepared into glass bowls one by one. We have obtained 15 bowls of ashura with these measurements.
When ashura begins to cool in bowls, you can decorate it with hazelnuts, walnuts, peanuts, currants, raisins and pomegranate seeds.
Bon Appetit! 💖
