  Is this authentic? I read this dish is served with kasha, not fried potatoes. Did they have ketchup back then? I thought there were mushrooms in it that were sauteed then mixed with the sour cream. The beef is supposed to be of the highest quality without needing to be pounded. The grilled beef, mushroom & sour cream mixture are to be served seperately on the plate with the kasha alongside, to be mixed according to one's taste. Is there any truth to what I've read? This is the way I make it and it's wonderful. Mary |
 This is Stroganoff? Water should never be used when making this dish. It calls for a dry white wine. Tomatos in it? I don't think so. This dish is made with a white sauce, the tomato paste etc. would only add an acidic flavor, and kill the taste of the wine, and the sour cream would be lost in a red goo. Paul Butler |
 My Grandma taught me My Grandmothers recipes is similar to this but she also adds sliced mushrooms and dry sherry or vermouth. I serve it over wide egg noodles. This is my kids favorite dinner but I quarter the mushrooms so my son can pick them out since he does not like. Kathi |
| My Grandmother also taught me My grandmother and mother, both born in Russia, made this without tomato sauce or any other tomato product, and with mushrooms. They served it with potatoes but not fried. Both my sons insist that I cook this whenever they return home or we visit their homes. It is our traditional special occasion meal. :-) Susan |
 Recipe Records I have an old Russian recipe book from 1950s. It has the same resepie for Beef Stroganoff as written here. There are no mushrooms, and it has tomato sause. Also, fried potatoes are mentioned. Lena |
| Ignorant People Please stop reading American recopies and thinking that they are Russian. Although there are many ways to skin a cat, this is the correct recipe. This is how it is made in true Authentic Russian places. So please next time before you write comments, check you sources. g |
| Enjoy it as it is I have tried this recipe and found it delicious, the same style of food can be varied according to area, district and availability of ingredients, that is not to say it is not authentic Fil in Australia |

| Not according to my mother! The meat is supposed to be of the best quality, simmered in wine with the mushrooms. The meat, egg noodles, and sour cream are served in separate bowls for the diners to arrange as they wish. I am *not* ignorant, I *am* half-Russian, thank you very much! Molly |
| *half* russian isn't *true* russian Thank you! mic |
 My family loved it!!! I add 1/4cup of red wine and doubled the amount of onion, and served it with egg noodles, it was delicious!! My husband had 2 servings, and my picky 11month old baby kept opening his mouth!! mimi |
| Beef Stroganoff How strange. Please see my review under Stroganov. Cherrie |
| beef-stroganoff I forgot to add in my previous comment: I'm FROM Russia and never had beef-stroganoff cooked any other way than that. And I love it with mashed potatoes or buckweat. Vicki |
| Moscow Cafeteria My wife, who was born in Russia, and her parents, call this "Moscow Cafeteria" Stroganoff (for poor people). The real one does have a little tomato puree,dry mustard, but also has mushrooms, white wine, and condensed beef broth. It is NEVER eaten with fried potatoes, but fluffed (like mashed potatoes without the milk and butter) or with plain boiled rice. And hey, it's only food. Don't start insulting people over it. D |
| Tomato sauce? My entire family (including myself) is from Russia and I have never seen this dish cooked with tomato sauce...Of course, there are always different recipes. Nata |
| Restaurant Quality I once visited the only Russian Restaurant in Merseyside England. I had the Beef Stroganoff and this recipe tastes just as good as the restaurant. The place is called St. Petersburg and is situated in the heart of Liverpool town centre. Also the live entertainment while you eat gave it that extra special flavour as well. Dawn A. |
| GOOD TO MAKE AT HOME This is a good meal when ther is nothing in the fridge and i tasts delisious jane baker |
| Make it your own Let's all remember that a recipe is only a guide and one should add his or her personal touch to everything they make for their family. I use the recipe as stated, but I stew my meet in red wine and bay leaves for 2 hours till it is so tender it nearly falls apart. I add mushrooms and serve with fried potatos...My wife is from Sochi and she says it's the best she has ever had! Rob, Tampa Florida |
| Ochen vkusno, poprobuyte! I came from Ukraine 10 month ago and very miss Russian food here so cook and found your Beef-Stroganov, I tryed and really good. My new American family like it also. Natasha |
| Butter? This recipe sounds great,but how much butter do I add to the flour?And is this beef broth?And what is 1 ea onion mean? Toy Foster |
| Been in Russia 20 + days The key people seem to not know, is the simple fact that the ingredients in Russia taste different. An example, the sour cream and onions. In the US the flavors are completly different. The pork and beef in Russia have much more flavor, what I call true flavor. Until we can import true Russian ingredients the dishes will simply be American flavored. I hope this cuts down the frustration some may be feeling trying to reproduce flavors experienced overseas.

| From an old "Ruski" recipe. All your reviewers missed one most important ingedient. It is julienne Dill Pickles that gives that unique taste of "Beef Stroganoff", try it it is delicious.Add when beef cooked. Pat |
