I found this recipe in Gourmet Cooking with a Flair, and let’s just say this is a fun and quirky cookbook from 1961 with a penchant for basic-yet-wacky twists on classics, and introducing recipes that seem very … 1960s.
Beef Stroganoff
Beef Stroganoff is a stick-to-your-bones classic that everyone loves! Between the chunks of beef and vegetables, and that creamy sauce, it’s a true winner. This recipe calls for rice, but it can always be replaced with wide noodles. The Nostalgic Foodie
