Hey.
So, as I have discussed it with some of you here, our almonds have been activated, but even weaponised autism bodies need the fuel.
All jokes aside, inflation is crazy everywhere. Just ordering some stuff was viable some time ago, but it's getting less so. Plus, tasty food is good for your general well-being and making it so is not only a skill all adults should have in my opinion (you are strong, independent adults, learn life skills that make you depend less on everyone else), but it can also be fun.
As much as I would love to feed you all, that's obviously impossible. The next best thing is, I curate a little collection of recipes and break it down so you can make it with relatively simple ingredients that don't depend on specific brands and using from scratch stuff as much as it is viable. Making your own pasta and churning your own butter would be fun, but I work a full time jerb that's not ASMR whisper cooking on Tiktok in a peasant dress.
It's going to be a combination of food from all different kinds. Some Hungarian (none of the war crimes Americans call goulasch), some Asian, some inauthentic shit that will get you cancelled, some mains, pasta, soups, desserts.
So gather around, my friends and eat like kings.

I cook a ton, generally eat like a king too. Close to a year ago I went from eating out probably seven to ten times a week to no more than three. Oftentimes one or two of those three are business dinners I wouldn't avoid anyway. It was for health over money for me but I enjoy it.
Always curious for new things. I can figure out the closest to Hungarian food I've had. Not been to Hungary (yet).
We are addicted to sour cream and paprika.
Though I will have to share my mom's tarragon chicken soup recipe, I would have it in an IV if the semolina dumplings could come through a needle.
Just paprika or any other kinds? Because I've fallen in love with smoked paprika on a lot of things.
Smoked is great, but just the normal kind is a must here. Like no way around it.
I recently bought paprika in bulk because I use so much I would go broke buying the small jars from the supermarket ;)
Made Cevapcici with paprika rice and fries last weekend.
Good thinking. Paprikás krumpli is such a good comfort food.
I've made a point I was going to try to make a bunch of different soups this winter, so that would be perfect as I haven't filled out the list yet.
Nice, nice. I will probably make a comment with some different soup recipes then.
That tarragon one, proper gulyás soup, roasted tomato soup. I have one for the hot and sour Chinese soup too we have at those cheap Chinese takeout places too, it's good .
