A short history of Beef Stroganoff 

Beef Stroganoff is a rich, delicious combination of beef, sauce, vegetables, mushrooms and pasta. It makes my mouth water just to think about it!

Beef Stroganoff originally came from Russia. It was invented around 1861. The dish gets its name from the Stroganoff family. One of the Stroganoff's chefs was the creator of the recipe.

There are legends and myths around the creation of Beef Stroganoff. One of these legends is that the head of the Stroganoff family wanted a soft, easy to eat dish because he had no teeth!

Did you know? 

- That beef stroganoff is considered to be a stew?

The best Beef Stroganoff that I've ever eaten 

The best Beef Stroganoff dish that I've ever eaten was at a pub just outside of Scarborough, North Yorkshire in England - possibly in Eastfield or a neighboring village.

The food was rich and absolutely delicious! My respect and appreciation for British pub food rocketed into the stratosphere!

Lensmaster's note: Tried this recipe on Jan. 19/08 - fairly easy to make, tasted good (note: I think I used too much worchestershire sauce) - makes enough for 4 people, one serving each. I used a couple of pieces of sirloin steak, sliced thin (1/8 - 1/4 inch thick). Cooking time/temperature was a guestimate.

Tried on March 4/08 - you have to search on the term "beef stroganoff" on this web page to find the recipe.

Not a bad little recipe - you don't have to cook your pasta separately, it's part of the mix. The peas add a bit of extra nutrition. Note: I didn't use the onions, but did add a dash of onion salt. Perhaps the onions would have absorbed a bit more of the liquid.
