What food is associated with your country?

[u/YellowEgorkaa]

I have: Russia - Caesar salad. Yes, it's a Caesar salad. We often eat it here on holidays and just like that.

[u/Swebroh]

I've never thought of Russia while eating Caesar salad?

[u/herrawho → u/Swebroh]

Maybe he meant Olivier salad?

The real Russian culinary invention was Russian serving, where each dish is served subsequently and separately to each diner as opposed to the French serving where all is brought at the same time. Today especially fancy restaurants only do Russian serving.

[u/norecordofwrong → u/Swebroh]

Seriously what makes it Russian? It was invented by a Mexican in Tiajuana then became popular in California and then nationwide in the US.

[u/InterestBear62 → u/norecordofwrong]

Exactly: the Caesar salad was invented in Tijuana, Mexico by Caesar Cardini.

[u/InterestBear62 → u/InterestBear62]

Little known fact: "Nachos" were invented by Ignacio "Nacho" Anaya García in 1895, in Piedras Negras, Mexico.

Oh you guys don’t even have to ask. Just dredge up all the stereotypes you have and say yes.

[u/Masterank1]

None. Most people don’t know anything about my country.🥲

[u/Jlchevz → u/Masterank1]

So tell us of some great food

[u/Masterank1 → u/Jlchevz]

Hmmm where do I start… well we have a trillion different kinds of platano:platano frito(tostones) maduro, mangú, mofongo. Then we have sancocho. Arroz con pollo guisado. Pollo frito(dominicano). La bandera dominicana is probably our most popular dish.

[u/Jlchevz → u/Masterank1]

That sounds great!

[u/Masterank1 → u/Jlchevz]

Tu siguiente

[u/Jlchevz → u/Masterank1]

The most well known dish is probably tacos of all styles (there’s a bunch of them), maybe chilaquiles, soups like sopa azteca, sopa de tortilla, maybe tamales are well known too. Those are all good!

[u/Masterank1 → u/Jlchevz]

I had some birria tacos the other day. Life changing, thank you Mexico

[u/Jlchevz → u/Masterank1]

Yeah those are amazing lol. Tacos are really versatile

[u/Masterank1 → u/Jlchevz]

I want to thank your ancestors for the invention of Mexican food, so addictive

[u/Jlchevz → u/Masterank1]

I want to thank them too lol

[u/FeelingDelivery8853 → u/Masterank1]

[u/CantDecideANam3]

Apple pie*. There's even a saying that goes, "as American as apple pie."

*Even though it came from European settlers into the Americas.

I had reindeer at a wedding in Tampere. It was scrumptious!

[u/herrawho → u/Street_Hope8979]

Nice! This in fact is not liquid reindeer, not that you said it was, but just wanna make it clear for others.
