  • All hot soups can nourish the body, and comfort the soul, but some seem to do so more profoundly than others, and this Hungarian Potato and Sausage Soup is a perfect example. By the way, I’ve never been to Hungry, so I’m not sure how authentic this is, but if I ever go, I really hope they have this soup.

      I have to admit, it got me confused for a bit because in my family we call this a cabbage soup or "Frankfurter soup". We do cook something we call as a potato soup (and we have sausages involved, as we are pretty much ought to as Hungarians), but that is somewhat different than this.
      My only actual criticism is: not enough paprika. Disclaimer: I am from the countryside and we grow our own paprika, so we definitely don't skimp on it and we would use at least twice the amount, maybe more.

    Hungarian here (like born, raised, and still living in Hungary) and first of all: this is a fairly accurate recipe (it's never gonna be fully accurate because everyone's mom and grandma, as in nagyi, makes it different) but a couple of notes: we rarely cook with butter or olive oil, sunflower oil or animal lard is the go to (duck fat is especially delicious, but for weekdays it's sunflower oil). For sausage substitution chorizo would be recommended (or any pork sausage that has a shitload of paprika, garlic, and some cumin). My grandma never used cabbage in a potato soup or lebbencs soup, but should a time of need or food shortages would have come I'm pretty sure she wouldn't have shy away from using it to beef up the soup. Also, most Hungarian soups are waaaaay thinner than most "American" soups, so you could omit the flour (but if you want it thicker it's not a sin). And huge YES for the sour cream! (Now forgive me, while I trade some cans of beans for some potatoes with my neighbour, because that's the only thing I miss for this recipe)

      Avery the Cuban-American actually soup is my specialty as an at home mom. The prep takes the longest, but once it’s all in and on simmer, you can relax setting the table and meeting dinner guests. Then once they’re settled in and talking I back French bread from pilsbury, if I don’t feel like making it from scratch and minutes later I can relax garnishing everyone’s dish with scallions on top of the soup bowls and then lay it on top of the center dinner dishes to catch spills and hold the bread for them to dip. It doesn’t take much, yet it’s homemade with love and they appreciate every soup night I cook. Thinking I slaved over a hot stove, when I just touched out the prep work and then simmered and stirred the soup. Plus, soup leaves tons of time if you need to do more in the kitchen. I clean as I go and the more the soup simmers the better the flavors really mix in. This way my kitchen is completely clean and the only cleanup I have is the serving dishes and the dishes eaten out of after. Which, those get popped into the dishwasher so I’m not slaving after dinner while trying to entertain and enjoy my guests. Most just rinse their plates for me and my mom always helps me with packing the leftovers for the fridge and rinsing the serving dish ware for the dishwasher. Anything dish that needs simmer time are the best for home dinner get togethers. Spaghetti bolonaise is also another great dinner dish that will have family and friends begging to do get togethers at your place. Home cooked meals are always healthier to eat and better for the kids as well. My son doesn’t like to eat out. He loves all my soup dishes and home meals. He gets a balanced meal and his behavior is way better as well.

    I'm from Hungary and I love to see "Hungarian" in the title of recipes lol great job, this is a pretty authentic recipe! Normally I'd add cumin if I add cabbage to any dish. The two go hand in hand. :) I also omit the vinegar, I get enough tang from the sour cream.
    Agreeing with other comments, this is pretty much a fusion between a "Frankfurter soup" (made with wieners and savoy cabbage) and a potato+sausage soup. Both Polish sausage and dry chorizo are good substitutions for the Hungarian sausage, although I found real Hungarian sausage in international food stores from the brand Bende in the United States. 👍

  • @jitkaszabo6180

    Hungarian here. This is more like a mix of a traditional potato and sausage soup (which has no cabbage, but also contains freshly made galuska dumplings and lots of sour cream) and a frankfurter soup (a cabbage soup that uses frankfurters or hotdogs instead of sausages). That said, those are both really good, so I can't imagine this tasting bad 😌

    Every time I put flour in a soup it turns black and scorched to the bottom. So if I do thicken I do it at the end with a slurry added to the soup. Other than that, I would think this is a terrific idea for my family this time of year (winter 2022). That is the main reason I keep coming back to your channel, to get ideas for what to serve my family. If I have the needed ingredients and the time, I watch and learn from you, then I tackle it with confidence. Honestly Chef, Michelle is a lucky woman to have you in her life.
