On Saturday the 24th, the language school sponsored a Bogrács (kettle) cooking party. You all knew a food post was coming sooner or later! Well, for an appetizer we had langos (lawn-go-sh). It's basically fried bread, and as delicious as all the other fried foods you love. I put a stock photo below, although the langos today didn't have cheese on top.
The premier food was some famous Hungarian goulash. Forget everything you know about goulash in the States. Hungarian goulash is more like a beef stew with potatoes, special creams, and spices. Here's a recipe if you're curious. The photos really don't do it justice, but it tasted so flavorful I went up for a third helping.
The chef cooked it over a fire, and afterwards we had pancakes for dessert. They were tin pancakes, rolled up tightly and filled with either jam or something that tasted like hot cocoa mix.
Jó étvágyat! (Bon Appetit!)
