Gulasch suppe

I was introduced to gulasch suppe when I visited my sister while she was studying abroad in Austria. Along the way, I picked up a cookbook that has the recipe.

I've been thinking about traveling with my sister, so I decided to make it this week.

If you look carefully at this picture, you will see a yellow/orange tinge to the page. As I pulled down the fancy paprika in a small zip lock bag, I also brought down the turmeric which was in an adjacent bag with the zip not zipped. So the book, and my counter, has this lovely colored haze now.

I have been cooking with my pressure cooker lately, mostly making chili. It cooks the beans so much faster. So I decided to make the gulasch suppe with it.

Note to self: Don't cook baking potatoes in a pressure cooker.

It turned out more like reddish, lumpy mashed potatoes, just not suppe. It tasted really good.
