Seafood and egg-yolk sweets; Portuguese sailors spread chillies to India.
Port, vinho verde, Madeira
Loading…
Sweet fortified wine: brandy is added during fermentation, stopping it and keeping sugar. Styles: Ruby, Tawny, Vintage.
Fortified wine deliberately heated during ageing, making it nearly indestructible; an opened bottle lasts for months.
Custard tarts created by monks of Jerónimos Monastery.
Portugal's 'faithful friend', said to have 365 recipes.
Not one cuisine but dozens: wheat and dairy in the north, rice, coconut and curry leaves in the south, mustard oil and fish in the east, and sweet-sour vegetarian food in the west. Ayurveda's six tastes and religious traditions (Jain, vegetarian) shape it.
China's eight regional cuisines range from fiery numbing Sichuan to delicate, fresh Cantonese. Rice dominates the south, wheat noodles and dumplings the north.
Washoku is UNESCO heritage: seasonality, umami from dashi, and the 'one soup, three sides' meal structure. Presentation matters as much as taste.
Rice, soup and many small side dishes (banchan) with fermentation at the core: kimchi, soy and chilli pastes.
Every dish balances sweet, sour, salty and spicy. Isan in the northeast loves sticky rice and grilled meats; the south uses turmeric and coconut.
Fresh, herb-heavy and light, with French colonial touches like baguettes and coffee.
