what is the tranditional food in your country?

I've heard of zongzi and the dragon-boat festival - zongzi sounds delicious!! In the UK we have many different traditional dishes, and many of them are from different regions of the UK. I'm in Lancashire, and here some of our traditional dishes are: Lancashire hot-pot (a kind of mutton stew cooked in a big pot in the oven, which has a topping of thinly-sliced potatoes on top), fish and chips with mushy peas (this is eaten all over the UK, but we believe that the first fish and chip shops originated here, because of so many people working at the factories and mills) - the fish is usually a big piece of cod or haddock, dipped in batter and deep-fried, with potatoes sliced into long thick finger-shapes, and deep-fried, served with marrowfat peas which are cooked for hours with water, salt and lemon-juice (and a pinch of bicarbonate of soda to speed up the cooking), until they turn mushy and start to disintegrate, making a kind of pea sauce for the fish and chips. We also have things like trifle (a dessert with a layer of fruit, sponge cake, fruit jelly, cold set custard, cream, and often with nuts, glace cherries and hundreds and thousands (brightly coloured sugar strands). In the South-West, in Cornwall, they have something called "cornish pasties", and this is made with a circle of pastry, which has meat and vegetables put in the centre, then the edges are sealed together, and it's baked. These are very filling, and used to be eaten by workers for their lunch. I could go on for hours describing the different regional traditional foods in the UK, because every region is so different!

Hi there! I'm from the philippines and adobo is famous here. Adobo is also term used as the name for a common dish in the philippines, typically made from pork or chicken or a combination of both. It is slow-cooked in soy sauce, vinegar, crushed garlic, bay leaf, and black peppercorns, and often browned in the oven or pan-fried afterwards to get the desirable crisped edges. It is actually one of the first dishes Filipinos learn to cook, as it is simple and requires just a handful of ingredients. Adobo is a common packed food for Filipino mountaineers and travellers because of its relatively long shelf-life. This stems from the vinegar content which inhibits the growth of bacteria. Like many Filipino dishes, there are many variations of adobo. The most widely preferred traditionally is pork adobo, followed by chicken adobo, although chicken adobo is very popular these days for health reasons. Other ingredients such as squid, beef, lamb, game fowl like quail and snipe, catfish, okra, eggplant, string beans, and water spinach are also made into adobo, using a variety of recipes. Squid adobo (adobong pusit), for instance, is quite different. While most adobos have a brownish sauce, squid adobo, due to its ink, has a deep, purplish-black sauce, not unlike the Spanish dish calamares en su tinta. The standard accompaniments to adobo, and ultimate comfort meal for many Filipinos, are mung bean stew (monggo guisado)and lots of white rice. Unless adobo is eaten for breakfast, in which case fried or scrambled eggs, garlic-fried rice, chopped tomato & onion salad, and atchara (green papaya pickle) are the tradition. By the way, adobo is the Spanish word for seasoning and marinade. I hope this discussion interests you. :)

In my country, we also eat zongzi during the Mid Autumn Festival. The zongzi has different filling in it,such as meat,red bean,peanut,etc. I love the ones with meat and salted egg yolk and chestnut in it. How about you?

Hi there. In New Zealand, our traditional food is the "Hangi", food that is cooked in an eath oven... Really beautifully cooked and soooo tasty...

My family is from Poland, and the traditional food varies, though it mostly consists of meat. I love perogi, which are basically dumplings with filling inside. But unlike the usual mushrooms or meat as fillings, I prefer fruits such as raspberries or blueberries in my perogi, topped off with sour cream. There's another food I love as well, called bigos. It's basically sauerkraut (vinegared cabbage) with meat. I hated it as a child, but now I love it.

Hey there!I'm from Malaysia so there's actually a whole lot of traditional food from our country. I think the most famous though would have to be 'Nasi Lemak'. Have you heard of it? It's actually rice cooked in coconut milk and served together 'sambal' which is a really spice gravy. and also with different types of side dishes depending on your preference. Some people like it with chicken curry, or lamb curry. 'Nasi Lemak' is definitely one of my favorite traditional food from my country.. :) I linked a photo for you to see what it looks like..

Since my family comes from Mexico. I would have to say that Tacos and Enchiladas the our main food. I also like to eat other types of food. But these are my favorite by far.

In my country, India, there are lot of traditional foods in different parts of the country. In the Northern part, I think Chappathi and other foods made of Wheat are the traditional food. In the Southern part, food made of Rice are the traditional foods.
