What is your underrated cuisine that you think people should try before they die?
For me, it’s Ethiopian food. I’ve mentioned it before, but I don’t eat meat, and Ethiopian cuisine naturally has a lot of vega(n) dishes. I discovered it when I randomly went to an Ethiopian restaurant in the city.
You’re served these big plates with pancake like bread called Injera. They have a soury-sweet taste and are a delicious side dish to your meal.
You’re supposed to rip a piece of the Injera and use it as a tool to pick up the food on the plate.
The meal consists of lentils, chickpeas, kale, pepper, cabbage, veggies and fruits, which does not sound special at all to be honest, The real magic is in the spices, which are probably something you have never tasted before if you haven’t eaten Ethiopian food yet.
It looks like this:
What is your favourite, underrated cuisine?
The lady where I eat Ehtiopian food makes sure that you never run out of injera. I’m a bit scared to turn it down actually. But at least I get to take home a bag of leftovers that can feed you for multiple days somehow.
My cooking lacks a good South-American cuisine, so I might give Peruvian food a shot
