HUNGARIAN GREEN BEAN AND POTATO SOUP



Hungarian Green Bean and Potato Soup image

A Crescent Dragonwagon recipe, a delicious sweet and sour soup, don't omit a thing, as all the flavors meld into an incredible dish. Cutting the beans into very thin diagonal slices is important; if you have a food processor, stand them up in the feed tube and use the slicing disk. Make sure your paprika is fresh for best flavor. For a much richer version, use up to a cup of creme fraiche or sour cream instead of the Yogurt. Creme fraiche will not require the cornstarch mixture as a stabilizer. I like to add a bit of Spanish smoked paprika, but it isn't necessary. A full-flavored stock is essential. I streamline her directions when I make this by sauteeing the onion, celery, and garlic in the soup pot, then adding the other ingredients and cooking it. I see no reason to clean two pans if I can clean just one!

Time 1h15m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

cooking spray
12 ounces fresh green beans, trimmed and cut into quarter-inch slices
4 small potatoes, diced
6 cups chicken stock or 6 cups vegetable stock
3 tablespoons cider vinegar
3 tablespoons honey
3 garlic cloves, pressed
1/2-1 teaspoon caraway seed
salt, to taste
pepper
2 tablespoons butter
1 large onion, diced
2 celery ribs, diced (use leaves, too)
2 tablespoons sweet Hungarian paprika
3 tablespoons cornstarch
3 tablespoons water
3/4 cup plain yogurt

Steps:

  • Spray a large soup pot with cooking spray, put in it the beans, potatoes, stock, vinegar, honey, caraway seeds, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer, covered, until the vegetables are tender, 30 to 35 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, melt the butter in a ten-inch skillet. Add the onion and saute until soft, about 4 minutes. Add the celery, saute another 2 to 3 minutes. Lower the heat slightly, and sprinkle the vegetables with the paprika. Let the mixture cook a minute, stirring constantly. Scrape the sauteed vegetables into the soup pot. Add a little soup liquid to the skillet and deglaze it, then scrape the pan contents into the soup pot. Remove the soup pot from the heat.
  • When ready to serve, have the soup good and hot. Dissolve the cornstarch in the water and mix it to make a smooth paste, using your fingers if necessary. Stir this paste into the yogurt. Whisk a ladle of the hot bean stock into the yogurt-cornstarch mixture. Turn down the heat under the soup as low as possible, and stir the cornstarch-stabilized yogurt into the very hot soup.Using a wooden spoon, stir gently until the soup has thickened slightly, about 5 minutes. Taste and adjust seasonings (including honey and vinegar), if necessary, and to be sure there is no raw cornstarch taste. Serve hot with a rustic bread.

Provided by Jaded spoon

Categories     Other Soups

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 large potatoes, peeled and cut into chunks
2 Tbsp freshly chopped parsley
1 medium onion, finely diced
2 or 3 carrots sliced

1/4 cauliflower, cut into small floretes
1/4 capsicum (bell pepper... piece left whole)
1 Tbsp oil
salt to taste
1 Tbsp paprika
4 eggs
sour cream
you can add other veggies too if you want like sweet potato or swede or turnip or broccoli but always use the above veggies as a base soup

Steps:

  • 1. Lightly fry the onion and parsley in the oil in a big pot. When onion is see through add the diced veggies and stir.
  • 2. When the onion starts to have a bit of colour add the paprika and toast it for a sec or two till it is fragrant. Add salt.
  • 3. Add enough water to it to just cover the veggies. Bring to the boil and then simmer slowly till veggies are cooked.
  • 4. When veggies are cooked crack all 4 eggs in to the soup, whole, one at a time. (like you would poach the egg) and gently simmer with lid on without stirring for a few mins for the egg to cook.
  • 5. Serve with crusty bread and a dollop of sour cream if you want! It is nice to actually over cook the potato just slightly as it gives the soup a sandy potato bottom... yum!!

HUNGARIAN POTATO AND SAUSAGE SOUP



Hungarian Potato and Sausage Soup image

When the going gets tough, the tough make soup! There are certain recipes that comfort the body and soul in a profound way and this hearty potato and sausage soup is in that class. I think you'll agree it's one of the best things you've had in a long time. The savory flavor from smoked sausage and the earthy sweetness from onions and cabbage are balanced perfectly with a splash of vinegar and a bit of sour cream, all brought together by soft and tender potatoes--the only way this gets better is serving it with a nice hunk of buttered, crusty bread.

Time 1h25m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 16

3 tablespoons unsalted butter
6 ounces smoked Hungarian sausage, sliced into rounds
1 yellow onion, diced
1 teaspoon salt, or more to taste
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 teaspoons Hungarian paprika
5 cups chicken broth, or more to taste
2 cups chopped green cabbage
1 ½ pounds russet potatoes, peeled and cubed
freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 pinch cayenne pepper, or to taste
1 bay leaf
2 tablespoons distilled white vinegar
½ cup sour cream, or to taste
2 tablespoons sliced green onion, or to taste

Steps:

  • Melt butter in a soup pot over medium heat. Add sausage and cook and stir until lightly browned, about 3 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to remove sausage to a bowl, leaving behind any butter in the pot.
  • Toss onion into the pot with 1 teaspoon salt. Cook and stir until onion just starts to turn translucent and picks up a brown color from the meat juices in the pan, 4 to 5 minutes. Add flour; cook and stir for 2 to 3 minutes. Add garlic and paprika; cook and stir until fragrant, about 1 minute, being careful not to burn the paprika.
  • Stir in 5 cups chicken broth. Increase heat to high and bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally so flour does not stick to the bottom of the pot. Stir in cabbage and cook until it just loses its stiffness, about 2 minutes. Stir in potatoes and bring back to a simmer. Add black pepper, cayenne pepper, and bay leaf, plus a splash of chicken broth if desired. Bring back to a simmer.
  • Stir soup and reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until potatoes are very soft and tender, about 30 minutes. Add sausage and vinegar and simmer for 10 minutes. Taste and adjust for salt.
  • Remove from heat and ladle into bowls. Garnish with sour cream, green onions, and cayenne pepper.

Tips for Making Perfect Hungarian Potato Soup

  • Use starchy potatoes: Russet potatoes are the best choice for this soup because they break down and thicken the soup.
  • Cook the vegetables until they are tender: This will help to bring out their flavor and make the soup more flavorful.
  • Use a good quality paprika: Paprika is the key ingredient in this soup, so it is important to use a good quality one. Look for a paprika that is鮮紅 and has a strong, smoky flavor.
  • Season the soup to taste: Be sure to taste the soup before serving and adjust the seasoning as needed. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or paprika depending on your personal preference.
  • Serve the soup with a dollop of sour cream or yogurt: This will help to add a bit of richness and creaminess to the soup.

Conclusion

Hungarian potato soup is a hearty, flavorful soup that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is easy to make and can be customized to your own liking. So next time you are looking for a delicious and comforting soup, give Hungarian potato soup a try. You won't be disappointed!
