Ropa Vieja to Save a Roast

Ropa vieja is considered the national dish of Cuba, though its name—meaning “old clothes”—might not exactly hint at just how delicious it is.

Will the Real Goulash Please Stand Up?

If you are a Midwesterner, you may have grown up having something called “goulash.” For me it looked suspiciously like chili, maybe a bit soupier and a bit blander, and it definitely involved some form of pasta, likely elbow macaroni. Outside the Midwest, the same dish, or something very similar, appears, but with different names….
