Hungry? The answer is: Always, if it´s worth it! We have researched and conclude these are the best 7 specialties by country in Europe:
7. Pierogi: Yes, Poland! Very tasty dumplings made with delicate dough stuffed with potato filling, sauerkraut, meat, cheese, and sometimes fruit. Perfect for winter!
6. Waffles: Belgium chocolate is known worldwide, but these guys also know how to cook other desserts. There are several kinds of waffle, including the Brussels and the Liège waffle. Sometimes with whipped cream, some with ice-cream, always yummy!
5. Goulash: This meat based Hungarian dish will make you ask for more. A stew of meat and vegetables it´s after seasoned with paprika and other spices. Originating from the medieval Hungary, goulash is a popular meal predominantly eaten in Central Europe but as well as in other parts of the old continent.
4. Salad: We know, this might sound too general, but we want to tell you about Greek salads: fresh vegetables, olives, feta cheese…there´s nothing nicer in a warm summer night!
3. Bacalhau: Portugal has other fishes too (sardines!) but cod –Bacalhau- is just the best. Try it in a restaurant by the sea, with a good bottle of cold white wine. You won´t regret.
2. Paella: Spanish national pride, you can take it with meat or sea food, saffron or squid ink. For a premium recipe go to Valencia!
1. Pizza & Ice-cream: we could not make up our minds and decide just one. The Italian combo just comes together. Best thing is you can find good versions or both anywhere around the boot!
