Once you master eating chicken feet you mastered french kiss. It's all about the tongue.

Chocolate sprinkles on a sandwich

Nice try, CIA

What do you think second would be? Tourtière?

I think Taiwanese Bubble tea is probably best known.

There could be more, but that's the only one off the top of my mind that started in Taiwan not China.

But actually eating in Taiwan. Beef noodle soup, Mapo Tofu, Lu Rou Fan, sweet potato balls, fantuan, tea eggs, so many delicious things.

My culture as in ethnicity? Probably hainanese chicken riceball, even though hainanese chicken rice originated from Singapore but the chinese here in Melaka just made it into a riceball, and riceball is delicious in ever culture.

My culture as a Malaysian? its kinda hard to choose, but Nasi Lemak, Roti Canai, and Hainanese Chicken Rice is basically the triforce of malaysian food. There's also nyonya laksa, spicy thick curry broth topped with sambal, cockle, and tofu puff; prawn noodle where the broth are made from prawn shell(i think) and topped with more prawn; asam pedas, spicy and sour broth made from chili and asam keping, and cooked with various type of fish.

Those are just some of my fav, kinda hard to list down all of it

How about taiwanese fried chicken? That giant piece of fried chicken is probably my favourite fried chicken.

I tried Gordon Ramsay's recipe, and i can see why some of them is bland. Fnc basically are lightly seasoned because you're supposed to taste the freshness and sweetness of the fish, just like how sashimi are. So if your fnc taste bland it's usually the fish.

So go back to the ramsay's recipe, i did that, it isn't as crispy as it should be because i opt out of using beer(i don't drink), but it still a really nice fnc.

Hear me out: vegemite fried crab.

Haha yeh I get you, it is definitely used more in the US as here the general populace tend to know what the bigger genres such as dnb, house etc are so dont need a catch all concept.

Ah Dom Whiting, yeh I know that guy. I remember seeing his videos years ago when he only had a few people following around. He was in my city this year and I joined in the ride for a bit. Absolute chaos but mad vibes! Definitely need more of that in the world these days!

Ah shit. This bring back memories and I love the white pepper. Zha Pai Gu is also way up there for me.

I was going for things strictly Taiwanese. That being said Korean fried chicken is also top tiered.

SO MUCH FUCKING CHEESE

Vegemite I suppose, or BBQ shrimp, beer or roo maybe. Pretty sad. Australia has a pretty great multicultural food scene, but the external perception sucks.

that looks amazing

Bread with tomato

It is the simplest thing there is, a tomato rubbed on a slice of bread.
It is usually done with a specific variety of tomatoes but it can be done with almost any variety as long as they are ripe enough. Sometimes if they aren't ripe enough or I'm short on tomatoes I put them in the blender and spread the puree instead (it is important in this case to apply some pressure on the bread to simulate the rubbing).
Add some salt and olive oil and it is done. Then this is accompanied with all kinds of cured meats and cheese.

You know how little that narrows it down?

Damn caught in 4k

Idk if it's specifically from taiwan but my favorite snack from taiwan is the fried chicken cutlet you get from the night market

When i visited i drank 2 milk teas a day LOL

It was hitting like 38C when I was there so I was dying everyday

Since I'm literally from the namesake city, Peking duck? Basically it's duck meat wrap with some veggies, almost like a Chinese taco wrap so to say. It's not something you can easily make at home and is typically quite pricy for how much meat you'd get, but it is quite good

Fun fact, the ducks used for Peking ducks (including in Beijing) are no longer bred in China for a long time

The real one that should have been famous is the Douzhi. Trust me it tastes even worse than it reads, Beijingnese ppl are weird

Goudse kaas is much more well known. Also stroopwafels.

That's so absurdly simple it almost sounds like a joke, except I'm salivating thinking about it. Neat.

Probably meatballs,

… or Surströmming.

pierogi

Nanaimo bars I suppose?

No to the French it doesn't.

Gehaktbal met stamppot!!!

Basque cheesecake. It's fucking everywhere with Brits claiming they know how to do it better. Fuck off.

I also love blood sausage (morcilla) and Spanish omelette. Toss up between those, you decide which is the most famous.

You forgot the part where they grind a garlic clove in the bread itself before putting the tomato and oil, although idk if that's done in your region too.

Fish and chips

For Slovakia its Bryndzové halušky - dumplings with special type of sheep cheese and sprinkled bacon on top

I’ve found some decent fish and chips in Oz too, though of course I have a bottle of malt vinegar at home to complete my lore accurate fish supper.

Or beans on toast

Maybe niche then? Didn't realize exotic had a negative connotation

I don't remember the last time i saw cacti for sale in a supermarket. Though in all fairness I go to asian ones maybe 70% of the time and standard american ones for the rest

I don't think exotic is negative, it's just too commonly available for me to think of it as strange or foreign. Even the Asian groceries around me carry it.

It is done, yes. I have friends that grind the garlic to the bottom of the slice to make it more prominent.

I always forget because I forget to buy garlic too.

Lutefisk, probably. But doing it well from scratch will take you half a year, and it's easy to fuck up.

I hear Brunost somehow became very popular in South Korea, but that's not really a dish on its own.

Fårikål is less known, but easy as hell to make. Traditionally the only spices are whole black pepper and salt, but I stumbled across a persian dish that wasn't that different, so I'd think whichever spices and herbs you normally use with lamb would work well.

i think kimchi

Maple syrup is pretty high up there. How about bannock, or butter tarts?

But more internally I think. Outside of Germany, it's sauerkraut.

I’m from Valencia (Spain), one of our mainly known food is Paella.

The other is Horchata with fartons

Döner :)

Fondue or Raclette

Those all sound delicious. I think the insects and larvae might be a weird texture for me but I'd still give it a try.

The alcohol in the batter burns off during cooking. But if you're still opposed to using it, substitute club soda.

The flavour of the fish is extremely important. Cod, haddock or halibut are the only acceptable options, anything else isn't fish and chips. Personally I always go haddock. But I also find that when people say it tastes bland it's because they're treating the salt and vinegar as optional; they're not. That's like sushi without wasabi. Liberally season the finished result with both. Not just the chips, the fish too. And it must be malt vinegar. Do not substitute.

Or something like that

Ja, dieses Kommentar hier, Herr Officer

The issue not with the alcohol i might consume when i eat it, the issue lies with...what the heck am i supposed to do with the rest of the beer after cooking fnc, i sure as hell won't drink it.

Biscuits and gravy - the way I do it - make American breakfast sausage crumbles, add flour and butter to pan to start roux, add milk to make roux, pour over southern American biscuits.
