LOL I'll add sour cream to stew (gulash, goulash, however you want to
spell it). There's no rule against it no matter which chefs say it's a
no-no. If you like it, add a little at the end of cooking as you would
for stroganoff. Or, set out some sour cream. Guests can add it to
their bowl of stew if they're so inclined. No big deal, really.
