Food from other cultures

Not everyone in the world puts the same on the table. In one country they like pasta a lot, in another country they prefer rice. Dutch families do not all eat the same meals either. Although many Dutch people are fond of potatoes, vegetables and meat. That combination even has its own abbreviation: AGV. Also typically Dutch: a sandwich with cheese.

Every country has traditional recipes. You have the French "kitchen" with quiches, ratatouille, many meat dishes and typical desserts such as crème brûlée or chocolate mousse. Chinese cuisine is completely different. These dishes contain a lot more herbs and often taste spicy. A lot of fish is eaten in Surinamese and Moroccan cuisine. And Turkish food contains a lot of fruit and legumes.

People in the Netherlands with a different cultural background often make different recipes than potatoes, vegetables and meat. They cook in the tradition of their country. They sometimes take their faith into account, which is why they do not eat pork, for example. They also eat vegetables that are not well known in the Netherlands. Such as bitawiri, which is a Surinamese leaf vegetable, or long beans, a type of green beans. Have you ever heard of Ayran? That's a popular Turkish yogurt drink.

All those different flavors, recipes and eating habits are of course very interesting. You can learn a lot from each other in the kitchen. How about a tasting afternoon with dishes from different countries at school? Ask your teacher!
