Goulash was brought to the USA by European immigrants, most especially from Hungary where it's a national dish. As is often the case with such culinary exchanges, Americans found a way to make it their own. American Goulash straddles the line between pasta dish and stew; it certainly has the thick, rich flavorful feel of a stew, but it's loaded with tender macaroni. In any case, American Goulash doesn't neglect the juicy ground beef or the cheesy topping. Nor does it forget the deep savory flavor that keeps you warm when the weather turns cold. The magic of food fusions delights once again!
