Exploring famous food from all over the world

Churro   The origin of churros is unclear. One theory suggests the concept was brought to Europe from China by the Portuguese. The Portuguese sailed for the Orient and as they returned from Ming-dynasty China to Portugal, they brought along with them new culinary techniques, including altering dough for youtiao, also known as yóuzhágu ǐ in southern China which bears a resemblance to the churro. The new pastry was soon introduced to Spain, where it was modified to have the dough extruded through a star-shaped nozzle rather than pulled. today’s churro is not that different from a recipe for a flour and water  fritter  that you find in  Apicius , a  Roman  cookbook dating from the 1st Century AD. And there are recipes from the  Ancient Greeks  but it’s probably even older than that. In the  Mediterranean basin  it’s basically been around forever. Churros are fried until they become crunchy, and may be sprinkled with sugar. The surface o...

  Bunny Chow The bunny chow was created in Durban, South Africa. It is home to a large community of people of Indian origin. The precise origins of the food are disputed, although its creation has been dated to the 1940s. It was also sold in Gwelo, Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe), during World War II and is still sold in the snearby town of Kadoma, formerly known as Gatooma. This was also useful as they would be able to take it out into the plantation. Meat-based fillings came later. The use of a loaf of white bread can also be ascribed to the lack of the traditional roti bread as well as its weak structure; thus the cheap loaf, widely available at local stores, would be an optimal substitute vessel for the curry.   If you really want to see a live example of the saying ‘’Sharing is Caring’’, then you should try Bunny Chow. Often referred to as a bunny, it is the most iconic Durban (South Africa), street food that is at heart a communal, working-class dish and is meant to be sha...

  Baklava A layered pastry delicacy called baklava, also known as Ottoman Turkish, is formed of filo dough, filled with chopped nuts, and sweetened with syrup or honey. One of the most well-liked sweet pastries in Ottoman cuisine was this one. The term "baklava" was first used in English in 1650 and was a Turkish loan from the Ottoman Empire. With slight phonetic and spelling differences, the name "baklava" is used in a variety of languages.Although the origins of baklava are obscure, it is likely that the current version was created in the imperial kitchens of Constantinople's (now Istanbul) Topkap Palace. Every 15th of the month of Ramadan, the Sultan led a ritual parade known as the Baklava Alay in which he distributed trays of baklava to the Janissaries. History :- Although the origins of baklava are obscure, it is likely that the current version was created in the imperial kitchens of Constantinople's (now Istanbul) Topkap Palace.Every 15th of the...

  Yaki udon, with its thick and chewy noodles, super savory sauce, crisp vegetables, and slices of seared pork is my idea of pure comfort food. It’s super easy to put together and I can’t imagine a better one pan meal. I LOVE yaki udon. It reminds me of long lazy nights, huge piles of noodles steaming on a flat top grill, and the sounds of happy people chatting and enjoying festival food in Japan. What is yaki udon? Yaki udon, literally translated, is fried udon. Thick and chewy udon noodles are fried with pork, cabbage, onions, and carrots, in a slightly sweet, super savory soy and mirin based sauce. It’s usually topped off with seaweed and bonito flakes that gently dance in the heat of the noodles. It’s almost just the same as yakisoba, but with udon noodles. Yaki udon is super popular at Japanese festivals, at izakaya (Japanese pubs), and just about anytime.   Yakiudon vs yakisoba If you asked me to choose between yakiudon and yakisoba, I would choose yakiudon every t...
