Other parts of our menu were located on the internet, and
I’ve shown recipe links for you below, but I’ve also included some delicious-looking
recipes we’re not preparing (they simply sounded worth trying) if you’re
inspired to give some Hungarian cooking a go before summer arrives! Here in Nebraska , we’ve enjoyed
unseasonably warm temperatures all through our winter and spring, but we’ve
gotten a chilly blast again the last few days that actually jives perfectly
with our Dinner Club theme for the month.

Most of the Hungarian recipes I’ve come across say “warm and
comforting” more than they scream “refreshing” or “outdoorsy”. So, before we
move on with our final Dinner Club in May and then into a summer full of activities
and grilling-out, let’s celebrate the food of Hungary with savory, rich,
somewhat heavier fare!
One of our adventurous and dedicated cooks is preparing, for
the first time, his own homemade sausage. He’s a grilling connoisseur, like
many of the men in our group, but he’s actually grinding and filling his own
Hungarian-style sausage and smoking it for us! He’s a great cook and I can’t
wait to see how it turns out!
Squeeze in a few last warm and filling meals, like we are,
before the fun of summer arrives. And, if you’ve never cooked with ingredients
like paprika or caraway (one of my FAVORITE flavors) try out one or two of
these recipes. You’ll be glad you did!
Next week, I’ll let you know how our Hungarian night turns out
and fill you in on “best dish”! Thanks for reading!
