My husband ate Goulash Soup every day, when we were in Austria! :-) I have tried many recipes. BUT none came as close as yours!!! 10 STARS! For this one! :-)

This is sooo good, yummm. Ausgezeichnet!! I made this in the Crock Pot, cooked it for about 8 hours on low. I only had a 6 oz can of tomato paste, so I added about 1/2 cup of ketchup ( I had looked up some substitutions for puree) and I didn't have beef consomme, so I just left it out. It tasted exactly like the Gulasch- suppe my Mom used to make. Thank you for this great keeper recipe.

This is a great recipe - a huge hit with my family. It is as good as the goulash soup that I had in Germany. The only things I changed was that I used Hungarian Sweet Paprika (start with less paprika and add to taste) and I added carrots and celery. Thanks for a great recipe.

Delicious - DH wanted to give it more than 5 stars!! Although it tasted like soups we'd enjoyed in Germany, this one had a depth to it that comes from making it at home and not in the kitchen of a restaurant. The broth was oniony and rich, the beef very tender, and the potatoes (which we put in as instructed) melted in our mouths. Perfect for a chilly winter evening. Thanks HeatherFeather!

Outstanding; just as I remember it tasting when I lived in Germany. I must admit to not having any consome and just omitted it so not sure what impact that may have on taste the next time I make it. Also, may try this one in a slow cooker next time.
