Golden brown Lángos topped with sour cream and grated cheese

Lángos

Lángos is a true Hungarian staple that has been a part of our cuisine for centuries. This deep-fried flatbread is most often topped with garlic sour cream, grated cheese, and various other toppings. The result is crispy and fluffy. A real experience for every bite. Lángos is a true street food, and many families make it together as a shared activity.

This classic dish is a staple at summer festivals, markets, and other events. Making lángos is simple, but using high-quality dough and fresh ingredients highlights the flavors. There is no single 'correct' version of lángos, as everyone prepares it according to their own taste, but the basic ingredients and crispy exterior always remain.
