Ah, well the Democratic nomination competition may as well be over now. Bruce Springsteen has endorsed Obama.

I guess Hillary can go back home to Chicago Arkansas New York Washington, now.

Strip Steak Goulash, with Criminis

I mentioned in my last post, I have a lot of eastern European in my background. Goulash, or the similar Stroganoff, is what the French would term a "peasant dish". It throws together what is underground, either in the dirt or a cellar, with whatever meat can be scrounged, cooked with some local herbs, spices, and such from local gardens.

I've had a mother and two grandmothers cook their interpretations, and each is different. Throw in the rest of northern Europe, and each recipe may be as different as the mother or grandmother cooking that day for the family.

I kicked the recipe up a bit with ingredients that would not normally be used in traditional versions of this dish, but the inspiration is from my upbringing.
