What Is Beef Stroganoff?
This dish comes all the way from Russia back in the mid 19th century. It usually consisted of cooked pieces of beef served in a dairy based cream sauce. Since it’s invention, variations can be found throughout the world. Many of you may remember growing up with a version typically made with canned mushroom soup served over noodles. In Russia this was actually served without a starch. But I can’t imagine it not being served with noodles!

Tips for Making Ground Beef Stroganoff:
- Beef Substitute- You can use Beef Tips or try ground turkey, pork or chicken. Using different ground meet will alter the deep richness beef brings to the meal however.
- Not a fan of Mushrooms-You add a different vegetable instead, try peas, peppers or zucchini
- Avoid the Curdle-Biggest complaint is the sour cream curdles, this is because your dish is too hot. Try removing your pan from the heat and slowly add in the sour cream and stir. Also add it in very last.
- Liquid– If you find you don’t have enough liquid to cook your noodles add half a cup of water at a time till desired amount. If you have too much liquid, let it simmer off by cooking an extra 5 or so minutes before adding the dairy.
- Storing-This doesn’t freeze well because of the dairy in it but it stores great in the fridge for up to 4 days. It’s even better the second day after the flavors really meld together.
