Beef Stroganoff Recipes
One of the first meals I ever made for my husband after we got married was beef stroganoff. What I didn’t realize at the time was that he was not really a fan of mushrooms. Given that he had grown up on his family’s mushroom farm, I assumed he ate them often! He let me know that evening that he actually didn’t like mushrooms, but he was a good sport and gave my cooking a try. He liked it so much that he’s been eating mushrooms ever since!
Since that early attempt, I’ve tried many beef stroganoff recipes and our family has a few favorites. No matter which type I decide to make, we all agree that it needs to be served with extra sour cream and served on egg noodles.
If you’re like my husband used to be and mushrooms aren’t really your thing, you can try omitting them, but I think you ought to give them a try and see if this classic comfort food can make you a mushroom believer too!

What is Beef Stroganoff?
It is a dish made with beef and mushrooms in a creamy sauce. Now while it originally used “beef”, beef stroganoff recipes now incorporate different cuts of beef from steak to stew meat to hamburger. It can also be made with ground round for vegetarians. You also incorporate sour cream either in the meal itself or served alongside.
Beef Stroganoff is traditionally served over egg noodles and this is one thing you won’t want to stray from. They make the perfect pairing. If you don’t like the texture of egg noodles, you could choose another pasta, but it just won’t be the same. A little chopped parsley on the top finishes things beautifully!
Can Beef Stroganoff be frozen?
Yes! In fact, I always make ours as a freezer meal. It freezes beautifully. Plus, when I make it ahead, it means that I always have one in the freezer ready to be pulled out on a day when comfort food is of the essence.
Which wine goes best with Beef Stroganoff?
I am far from a sommelier, but for this question, I turned to the experts in this area. According to them, a red wine is what you want to pair with beef stroganoff. In particular, a rich, fruity wine such as a Shiraz. You can also go with a heavily oaked Merlot. If neither of those meet your fancy, a fruity Pinot Noir will stand up to the mushrooms and hold its own.
