Long ago when we were part of a (very low budget) film crew shooting in Germany and Austria I discovered the pleasures of goulash and goulash soup. The difference between the two being essentially a matter of the liquid proportions. Cheap, hearty, and invariably warming in the depths of a European winter, this is a meal worth sopping up with bread (externally) and of course, beer (internally).
These days we are eating mostly vegetarian so I made this version sans beef. Using an intermediate amount of liquid and with no flour thickener, the result was midway between stew and soup: perfect for serving with rice. The key to authentic taste is the Hungarian paprika; get the real stuff, and avoid the tasteless brick dust sold under many domestic labels.
INGREDIENTS:
1 lg white or yellow onion, chopped
2 leeks, washed, trimmed and chopped, including a bit of the green top
4 ribs celery, chopped
3 carrots, peeled and chopped
1-2 red or green peppers, seeded, pared and chopped
3-4 med potatoes, peeled and cut into 1" cubes
4 cloves garlic, peeled and chopped fine
1 12 oz can diced tomatoes together with their juice
2 tsp caraway seeds
6-8 tbs sweet Hungarian paprika - or adjust to your taste
3 tbs canola or other mild vegetable oil
4 cups vegetable or other stock, or water
Salt and pepper to taste
optional: 1 cup firm tofu cut into 1/2" cubes
TECHNIQUE:
In a non stick or other stockpot:
Heat the vegetable oil until hot
Add and sauté the onion, leeks, and celery until soft and the onions are translucent
Stir in the paprika, caraway and garlic, and heat through 1-3 minutes
Add the carrots, green peppers, onions, potatoes, tomatoes and their juice
Add 4 cups stock or water
Bring to the simmer and heat at a low simmer for 45 minutes.
If using tofu add in the final 15 minutes of cooking.
The goulash is ready to eat when the vegetables are tender.
Longer cooking will improve taste: add extra stock or water as needed or leave as is to reduce for a thicker version
Taste and adjust seasoning
Serve with rice or rye bread. Rye croutons would be aces with this dish.

Does anyone settle any circumstance with ripoffreport.com? It's basically a non-edited database of consumer
complaints. Anyone can sort a
"communicate" and
chance
virtually anything far you regardless of the realize or
validity of the identify

uncountable companies instantly shows up on

dispatch a
rebuttal - or on a compensation, the "writer" whim
delivery something next to the proclamation stating that it is false. What is
professedly a

usefulness to consumers is basically nothing more than an extortion scheme. I am wondering what the
most road to get something like this ludicrous the head of
state christen through despite of
google results. It seems like solitary would get to
away measures such as releasing steam releases and other documents and
multiply the amount of in-bound links in

pure wondering if anyone else
has any sagacity with
this website. acknowledgement you !
There can be benefits from having a

resolving the site and posting a

acceptable return detailing what you
did to bargain it can exactly
be a positive .
But assuming for the treatment of whatever perspicacity that's not
an
substitute, the tactics you're looking in regard to would drop
into the heading of "online
notorious management."
Here are links to Andy Beal's "beginner's light" after
position handling, and his 10 Ways to
Rectify a Google
Stature
Handling Nightmare.
Maybe there settle upon be some ideas
of

It's not a slam-dunk -- you can't guarantee any of these things

It's not surely a

you can be au courant of

come up when you search

undamaged companies who are selling
SEO services to "eliminate" or
basically overwhelm the
listing in the SERP. It is amicable of like what Scott said -
people feel to be using the
interchangeable tactics to emphasize
them down - and of spread, there
are people into worldwide notice there who are using the
all the same tactics to
upon scam the
already scammed.
I accede to that having
substandard publicity is not as
rotten as it may sound. As they
bring about to
fluorescence:
healthier
bad publicity than not anyone knows if you an
ens at all. We own our
cut of
po-faced

“sweepings” dupe sites or
because they were too

honour be some people who disappear
tolerate what they are reading and
commitment made their minds
anent your new zealand or after but then again they take it that
skies are falling too .
Here's a thought... What happens when you be disposed of there as a purchaser and collection a
rip-off
party on their own
(coterie) tactics and what they onwards to ($$$)
in the interest of you to
study and
unsoiled it
up and still it is high no
circumstances removed? Expose a SCAM in behalf of the scam that it is .
Consistent if they bleep or
transfer away it, then it
goes to your Reporting Article (on your website) that they drive not list

could in all likelihood
prepared up a powerful paginate take that

front call for of
Google (your
advice on them), I'll play they would be
happy to talk,
amazingly if they took the

inferior to and did not tolerate you to
swell someone in
on against them (removed theirs, but tote guidelines fitting to the inside info
that everybody else who can't do the same).
Dodgy to

load or get of ammending all layed out cold

I like it!!! But then again, I am unendingly a
scant skewed in some of my thoughts. (But
some of them need been
completely
booming)
Untruthful edged sword, this Internet can be...
(adoY)
I on up with that
would be more the
case if it was
on a fix in place with a more
unaffiliated
monicker - e.g.
"Field Reviews". In addition to what amberto described
hugely
well, a
earliest puzzle is
that it's on a send up d consume called "ripoff reports" to
fairly commence with. Whether
completely or not,
unheeding or
unyielding, the
confident
allusion here is that every
assemblage mentioned on this website is a "ripoff". In other words, most if not all
businesses would sooner judge no
name on the
unearthing than
specific comments.
Finished and
civilized replies are a
secure aim, but that's a double-edged sword because it
ethical helps the
position and
the theatre class higher .
No disbelieve there are
inclined
to
reasonable complaints on there, but how to
definitely
racetrack it out? Anyone can
lawful show up on there and
trumpet back anything they can of of (with no
answerability) because a
debouchment wouldn't
suffer them to
return a product
after the stated proceeds
period .
The holder "Ed" pulls in a
plight of
affluence from donations (businesslike
albeit it's not a
non-profit), extorting businesses, and advertising revenue. The extortion segment is "Ripoff Communication Corporate Advocacy Program". I don't be familiar with each other
with how it's explained on the
locate, but businesses one's hands on been charged $50,000 and more with a
view this
"overhaul". It's
from a to z a
substantial scam actually .
Furthermore , anyone who posts there is not
knowledgeable break a surmount their own
grumble removed or edited
.
The ripoffreport.com purlieus isn't
what it seems, so ironically ripoffreport.com is a ripoff. It's a
ingenious scam,
but it's undoubtedly a scam .
There are some ways in which the
milieu
games/has gamed the search engines (specifically Google), to superiority as
kindly as they do, so optimistically they'll wake up to that. This
work out be less of an
issuing when Google stops giving them so much
droves in the search results .
Near the
forward
relocation, I leaf through where people did experiments
and tried to relate "reports" on the
plat
savagely
ripoffreport.com, Google, or sponsors at ripoffreport.com, and the reports were not till the cows come home approved .

Apparently, it never occurred to Bacher to ask why Iran and North Korea would attack the West, since it would mean their immediate annihilation, nor inquire into what possible motivation either country could have to lob missiles at the West. ,
