Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
These Hungarian recipes originally came from NagyMama, pronounced Nudge-Mama. That is Hungarian for "Grandma", and our NagyMama is Grandpa Kiss's Mom from Budapest Hungary. Using real Hungarian Paprika really is better than the American stuff. You can find it in the U.S. at gourmet shops and online. You can tell the difference! The dutch oven on top of the stove I think is important for the flavor but I don't know if that is really the case or just because I always saw it made that way. And if you don't put the paprika in with the onions BEFORE the water is added, it doesn't taste the same. I don't know why..
