How I wish I had written down my Hungarian grandmother's recipe for goulash! This is as close as I can come to duplicating it. She was a superb cook and most likely cooked without a recipe...I remember going to a wonderful store called something like "Paprika Weiss" on New York's upper east side. There she bought freshly ground sweet paprika. When I moved to San Diego, years later, she mailed those round cardboard cartons of paprika to me. These days both Grandma and her store are long gone, but her granddaughter remembers and cooks "with her heart".
