Bread making has always been an unknown terrain. The oven quality needed to make baguette and French bread seemed to remove the possibility of my ever making it at home.

Welcome to a new Foodseum serial, The Test.
Each month, I’ll be taking an analytical approach to recipe development, picking dishes apart and putting them back together, resulting in new and exciting ways to enjoy everyday favorites.

So for January, we’re going to foray into Grandma Beresh’s kitchen for my absolute favorite dish, Veal Paprikash, and learn a little bit about the bigger picture of goulash, the quintessential comfort food.
