{One Pot} Beef Stroganoff Soup Recipe - Belly Full (2024)

FAQs

How do you make stroganoff less bland? ›

I suggest using a very flavorful broth or else your stroganoff will end up being bland. We use Better Than Bouillon to make our beef broth. Worcestershire Sauce & Dijon Mustard: Worcestershire sauce and Dijon mustard are added to the broth to add more dimension to the flavor.

Quartered mushrooms and a combination of pearl onions and shallots give the finished dish a more interesting texture and flavor. Adding gelatin to the chicken stock gives it more body, letting the sauce come together more tightly to coat the meat and noodles.

If too runny, add more flour-water mixture and if too thick, add more sour cream. Serve noodles with stroganoff mixture over the top.

Greek yogurt is a healthy alternative to the traditionally used sour cream in beef stroganoff recipes, so you can be confident that your family is getting a satisfying, healthy meal. Fresh dill and paprika will provide a sweet, slightly smoky garnish to top off the dish.

Add more salt and pepper to taste. Add some acidity. Acidity can help to brighten up the flavor of your sauce. You can add a splash of vinegar, lemon juice, or wine.

How do you keep sour cream from curdling in beef stroganoff? Remove some of the liquid from your stroganoff and allow it to cool. In a small bowl, take several tablespoons of the sour cream (or however much you require) and then add a teaspoon of the cooled liquid from the stew.

And if you want to make it spicy, you can either use the Mexican flavors (ancho & poblano peppers), or use horseradish. To use so many different things together seems like a “kitchen sink” approach. I would cut down the horseradish to about 2/3 of the original amount.

What thickens stroganoff? ›

Cornstarch: Cornstarch is an ingredient that comes in handy if you want your sauce a little thicker. Sour cream: Full-fat sour cream is what we used, but feel free to substitute a lower-fat sour cream if you choose. However, some picky eaters will be able to tell the difference if you use a lower-fat sour cream!

Leave quicker-dissolving fine sea salt or table salt for times when you want it to meld into the finished dish. Salt-forward pantry staples are another way to go and can add other dimensions of umami-rich flavor. Contenders include soy sauce, fish sauce, parmesan cheese and Worcestershire sauce.

If your dish tastes too sour try to add sweetness—think sugar, honey (it's healthy!), cream or even caramelized onions. You can also dilute the dish (same as you would with a dish with too much salt). As a last resort, add a pinch of baking soda to make the dish more alkaline.

Adjust the seasoning with salt, acid, and herbs. A squeeze of lemon juice can make nearly any dish better (we always add a few dashes to cream of broccoli soup, for example, to help balance the richness). And don't forget the fresh herbs!
