Additional Tips & Ideas

• For a special touch, you can add some juniper berries or bay leaves. Simply place them in the liquid and cook along.
• If you want to add more flavor to the goulash, you can marinate it before browning. Make a marinade from oil, red wine, mustard, thyme, and garlic, and let the meat soak before browning.
• You can use other types of mushrooms instead of champignons, such as chanterelles or porcini mushrooms.
