I’m sorry I wasn’t accurate I meant vanilla pudding powder. That is mine version, origin bird’s milk recipe use vanilla extract, or vanilla beans and 1 tablespoon flour for thickening. I realized the vanilla pudding powder gives better and stronger taste than the vanilla extract. Is it not funny?

Girls look out!
"Man-Catcher" Soup
Hungary is soup country. Men consume lots of soup
A man's heart is through his stomach, which is why women should cook lots of soup . My dear aunt was the best soup lady in the village, they used to invite her to huge wedding parties. She taught me many cooking techniques. She was always joking: “a man who eat lots of soup must be an excellent lover.” Where did she get this idea, I don’t know, she had only one man in her life.

1 pound smoked chuck
2 onions, sliced, 1 leek
2 cloves garlic, crushed
half celery root chopped
1 savoy cabbage, chopped
2 tablespoon barley
Crushed pepper
some flour
2 tb spoon oil
1 table spoon Paprika

Boil the chuck and the onion, until medium soft. Add the cabbage, barley, garlic,. leek and the celery. When it is soft, take out the chuck and cut into cubes.
Take about 2 tablespoons of oil melt in hot skillet, add some flour (give or take a tablespoon), with fork mix flour into oil add paprika and make a paste (rantas)
and pour it to the dish. Add the chuck and boil one more time. Serve with soft sour dough bread. and lemon..

Sorry guys I don’t know any lady - catcher soup.

Fermented, leavened cucumbers or Pickled cucumbers,

During the summer there are jars everywhere holding small warty cucumbers, which sit fermenting in the sun. Most people prepare this in big quantities, using three-liter jars. The fermenting juice should be reserved as "it is refreshing and healthy."I like to drink it. Or use it up for the dill soup.

kirby cucumbers as many as fit into your jar
Salt
Dill
bay leaves
4 gloves Garlic, you can use less or more as you like it.
Bread / you can use up any kind of dried bread/
If you like with pickling spice use it.

Cut the ends off of the kirby cucumbers and punch some holes in them. Arrange them in a large jar and cover with warm salted water. Add some dill and garlic. Cover the top of the jar with one piece of toasted bread. Close the jar with a cheese cloths or gauze tightly with a rubber band . Leave it in a warm place, in the sun like window - sill, for three days. Remove the bread and store the cucumbers in a cool place.

Plum dumplings


5 medium potatoes, peeled, boiled, mashed and cooled
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon salt
2 half cups all-purpose flour
18 Italian prune plums, washed and pitted
half stick butter
1 and half cups crumbs , I used Japanese bread crumbs, or home made bread crumbs.
1/4 cup cinnamon sugar
¾ cup dry bread crumb
Cinnamon
In a large bowl, combine potatoes, eggs and salt. When well combined, add flour and mix until a soft dough forms. Cover with plastic wrap and let rest 30 minutes. / My mother used to make the dough a night before she plan to make her dumplings/

Place a large pot of salted water on to boil. On a lightly floured surface, roll dough to 1/3 inch. Cut into 2-inch squares. Place a plum in the center- hint a pinch cinnamon sugar inside every plums, -. each square and fold in half, pressing out all air and sealing the edges. Moisten edges and roll it into a round smooth ball. Place it, pinched side up, on a floured board until ready to cook.
Carefully drop into boiling water. Repeat until all plums are in the water. Do not crowed them. After a minute, give the dumplings a stir with a wooden spoon to keep them from sticking to the bottom. Once they rise to the surface, let them cook about 12 minutes uncovered. Just like when cooking ravioli, taste one.

While the dumplings are cooking in the pot, brown the breadcrumbs 3 tablespoons of butter 2 minutes before it’s ready hint one teaspoon sugar to caramelize the breadcrumbs. Be careful don’t burn it.
As the dumplings are ready, lift them carefully out of the water with a slotted spoon, roll them in the browned breadcrumbs, and sprinkle with cinnamon sugar. Serve immediately..
Variation:
I like to fill with dried prunes, / I soak the prunes overnight with Hungarian prune brandy./
Winter time we place 1 teaspoon prune jam into ech of the dough.
Some people use apricots, peach instead of plums

ohmygoodness, these recipes are making me hungry!! mmmm...I have a recipe one of my great aunts in Germany (who was originally from Hungary) gave me 30 + years ago. It was the first time time I ate onions as a child and enjoyed them (and the only thing I'd eat with onions until I was well into my 20s). It's called Zagoina Schnitzel. I've adopted a few things over the years, including using pork tenderloin instead of veal for the schnitzel. I don't have exact measurements as I don't use them, sorry..but I will be as descriptive as possible. I've made this for many, many Americans (& other )friends over the years and nobody has not loved it...though it may sound odd (maybe not to you if it is a Hungarian dish as I was told)....

Bread-Use rye or seedless rye and butter lightly then broil in the oven

Schnitzel-pound out a pork tenderloin, dip it in egg & then italian bread crumbs (I use Progresso). Fry in a hot pan in oil.

gravy -Start with Jagersose (it's like a mushroom gravy, you can use hunter gravy mix, but it is not even close to the same) - Use 2 cups of water for 2 Jagersose mixes...simmer for 5 minutes

saute a vidalia onion (use a texas sweet or maui sweet if vidalias aren't in season, but they are the best) in a little oil

add to the gravy and then add:

1 small jar of pimentos
8 dill pickles , cubed very small (not quite diced) - I actually like heinz dills
1-2 cups hard salami, cubed
1 can of whole mushrooms

Simmer uncovered. Layer the bread, then schnitzel, then gravy

Chopped sardines alla Krúdy

This simple recipe comes from Gyula Krúdy family recipes. Gyula Krúdy is a famous Hungarian writer.
The Sindbad stories are accounts of Krúdy's alter-ego. Sindbad is more of a Casanova than of a Don Juan: all of the 107 women who were madly in love with him remember him with nostalgic awe. Read more:

http://www.hunlit.hu/krudygyula,en

One box of smoky sardines, take out the sardines from the box and chopped add 2 tablespoon I can't believe it's not butter, two chopped hard-cooked eggs, and a large grated onion, and juice of a half of lemon.Eat this spread on bread or toast.

Beigli


is an authentic Hungarian pastry roll that is often served for Christmas. It is sweet and has many varieties of fillings, the most common of which are poppy seeds and walnuts.

Beigli walnuts or poppy seeds rolls

3/4 cup milk
1 3/4 oz. confectioner's sugar
2/3 oz. yeast
18 oz. flour
8 oz. butter
3 eggs plus 1 egg white
pinch of salt

Walnut Filling
5 1/4 oz sugar
10 1/2 oz ground walnuts
3 1/2 oz fine biscuit crumbs
3 1/2 oz raisins or diced quince jelly
*Mix *
1 1/4 cup water with the sugar and cook into a thick syrup, add the walnuts.
Remove from the heat, stir in biscuit crumbs and the other ingredients.
Leave to cool and spread on the dough when ready.

Poppy Seeds filling:
2/3 cups poppy seeds,
grind well; 5 tbsp sugar;
1/2 tbsp honey;
1/4 tsp + 1/2 tsp grated lemon zest;
1/2 tbsp +1/4 tbsp+1/4 tbsp apricot

Adding 1 teaspoon sugar, and yeast to a small amount of lukewarm milk mix in a mug
Mix butter with the flour using your fingers on a large flat surface or pastry board,
whisk two eggs and add them in
Stir in the yeast, the salt, the remaining milk and sugar
Knead the dough quickly
Cover with a cheesecloth and let sit for two hours.

(Now is a good time to make the nut filling - see above.)
Divide the dough into two large, or four small balls. Roll the dough out into 1/6 inch thick rectangles, spread on the filling, leaving a 1/3 inch wide border. Roll the dough and place it on a baking sheet with the folded end of the dough on the bottom. Brush with a beaten whole egg. Set aside to rise moderately in a warm, dry place for one hour. Brush with egg white and put in cool place for 30 minutes. Puncture the sides lightly with a fork to prevent the crust from breaking. Bake at 350°F for 40-45 minutes or until golden brown..
After baking, the beigli can be kept in a plastic bag in the refrigerator (if it lasts that long!).

People like those cakes, that are made the right way, everywhere in the world. It is sweet pastry rolled up on a wooden roll, covered with melted golden-brown sugar.
