J Allen Hynek, Traditional Czech Beef Goulash, UFOs and UAPs

Joseph Allen Hynek was an American astronomer, professor, and ufologist who made significant contributions to science and advanced our understanding of UFOs.  Born to Czech parents in 1910, we make traditional Czech goulash and discuss an Origins of Unidentified Aerial Phenomena map by Twitter user Berlinghoff Rasmussen. 

Bonus: Amateur tips on survival versions of goulash, what do you do when all you have is roadkill?

https://www.viewfromprague.com/czech-goulash-recipe/

INGREDIENTS 
800 g beef cheaper cuts
2 onions finely chopped
2 cloves garlic crushed
2 tbsp tomato puree
1 cube beef stock
1/2 tsp sweet paprika
1/4 tsp caraway seeds/marjoram/chilli
1/4 tsp salt & black pepper mixed
2 tbsp plain flour

INSTRUCTIONS

•  Cut up the beef in to bigger chunks
• Mix together the plain flour, pinch of salt and freshly ground pepper and put it in a deeper plate or bowl
• Coat the beef pieces in the flour mix
• Heat a large frying pan with some oil and leave until it's medium hot
• Fry the beef from both sides until it's golden brown and the meat is 'sealed' and place on a new plate. Do this in several batches if your pan is small.
• Next fry the onions until see through and flavor them with caraway seeds, pinch of chili, some marjoram and also add the garlic.
• Put the beef back to the frying pan (or swap it for a large stock pan or soup pot).
• Add the beef stock cube and about 500 ml hot water
• Add the tomato puree
• Reduce the heat to medium low, cover with a lid and let the whole thing to simmer for about 2 hrs.
• Check regularly to make sure that the stock doesn't evaporate too much and check the beef. Depending on what cut of beef you buy, the dish might be ready sooner or longer than the recipe.
• Serve with traditional Czech dumplings or with a thickly cut sourdough bread.
