Thought I’d ask this because I want to discover more foods from across the world

(Also I shouldn’t have to say this to americans, please state where you are from and state where you are from without acronyms or shortened names because I’ve seen US Defaultism on lemmy and not all of us are going to know your acronyms considering we’re global users)

    Well, they’re basically an entirely different meal, that probably shares name only for historical reasons.

    The Czech version doesn’t contain much vegetables, is a thick paprika-based sauce and has onions. Hungarian is more soup-like in consistency and has some vegetables. The Czech one also has dumplings as a side dish.

    The Czech one is slow-cooked until the meat is tender, easily taking many hours to cook if you use beef (as is the tradition, but many people use pork because it’s cheaper). Beer is sometimes added for flavour.
