Hungarian Food

Hungarian food showcases the country’s rich culinary heritage, influenced by its position as a cultural crossroads, and drawing influences from Austrian, Turkish, and Slavic traditions but featuring a distinctive Hungarian twist. 

At the heart of Hungarian cooking is hearty comfort food, including goulash soup, chicken paprikash, and lecsó stew. A key element of these dishes is paprika powder—Hungary's most iconic spice, celebrated for its vibrant red colour and aromatic flavour.

Paprika is also essential in a wide range of traditional charcuterie, including Hungarian salami and sausages like the famous Pick Salami and Gyulai Kolbász, as well as gourmet delicacies made from the native mangalitza pig. 

Hungary boasts the largest acacia forests in Europe, and the pristine countryside is ideal for artisan beekeepers who collect fresh raw honey. This sweet nectar is perfect for sweetening cakes and pastries, including the beloved beigli.
