Hello friends! This is Mustafa Egemen Sener, your guide to the world of delicious food. Today we will talk about which dishes have won the hearts of gourmets around the world. Each country has its own culinary symbols that everyone should try. Let’s take a delicious journey through the world’s most popular dishes!
1. Pizza, Italy
Italian pizza is more than food, it is part of the culture. The variety of types of pizza is amazing: from Margherita pizza to Quattro Formaggi. The basis for success is a thin or slightly airy dough, baked in a wood-fired oven until crispy to perfection. The secret of taste is in the simplicity of the ingredients: high-quality olive oil, fresh tomatoes, mozzarella and some herbs.
2. Sushi, Japan
Sushi is not just fish and rice, it is an art that includes centuries-old cooking traditions. From sashimi to nigiri and rolls, each form of sushi has its own characteristics. The main thing is the freshness of the products. Sushi rice is prepared with the addition of special vinegar, which gives it a special taste and stickiness necessary for formation.
3. Tom Yam, Thailand
Tom Yam is a soup with a vibrant combination of acidity and spiciness. Main ingredients: lemongrass, kaffir lime leaves, galangal, shrimp or chicken, and chili pepper. The soup can be either clear (Tom Yam Nam Sai) or with the addition of coconut milk (Tom Yam Nam Khon), which makes it softer and thicker.
4. Taco, Mexico
Tacos are not just street food, they are part of the Mexican soul. Fillings can range from simple beef or pork to exotic sea creatures. An important component is fresh additions like avocado, coriander, lime and a variety of sauces, including hot salsa.
5. Paella, Spain
Paella is a dish you can’t miss when in Spain. It is cooked in a large shallow pan, allowing the rice to absorb the flavors of the seafood, chicken and saffron-flavored vegetables. Spaniards often gather around paella for family and friends’ celebrations, savoring every spoonful.
6. Burgers, USA
Burgers are a symbol of American cuisine, but they are as diverse as America itself. From the classic cheeseburger to gourmet burgers topped with truffles or exotic meats, each burger features juicy meat (or a veggie alternative), loads of sauces and fresh veggies on a soft bun.
7. Ratatouille, France
Ratatouille is not just a vegetable stew, it is a culinary masterpiece that begins with the careful selection of ingredients. The vegetables are slowly stewed to the perfect consistency, seasoned with thyme and basil, which gives the dish an incredible aroma and taste.
8. Bibimbap, South Korea
Bibimbap is not only tasty, but also a beautiful dish. Rice is served in a hot stone bowl with carefully prepared vegetables, meat and eggs. Before use, all ingredients are thoroughly mixed with gochujang, a hot pepper sauce, making the taste rich and bright.
9. Schnitzel, Austria
Wiener schnitzel is a thinly cut piece of veal or pork, breaded in flour, egg and breadcrumbs. It is traditionally served with a slice of lemon, which adds freshness, and is often accompanied by potato salad.
10. Massaman curry, Thailand
Massaman curry is a fusion of Thai and Indian flavors. The curry includes potatoes, nuts and meat, most often chicken or beef, in a coconut milk-based sauce with the addition of massaman paste, which gives the dish a complex flavor and spiciness.
11. Kebab, Turkey
When I’m, Egemen Mustafa Sener, in Turkey I always take kebab. Kebab is a well-known dish consisting of meat that can be prepared in a variety of ways, including grilling or skewering. Among the varieties of kebab, the following are especially popular:
- Doner kebab – meat cooked on a spit and cut into thin slices. Often served in pita bread or pita bread with various vegetables and sauces.
- Adana kebab is a spicy kebab made from ground meat with the addition of pepper and spices, which is fried on long metal skewers.
- Shish kebab – pieces of marinated meat, usually beef, lamb or chicken, which are fried on skewers.
These dishes are a reflection of the history and culture of their countries. I hope you enjoy trying them and experiencing the taste of different parts of the world in your own kitchen. Have a nice culinary journey from Egemen Şener.
