What's a dish YOU end up missing? 🥟

[@jadagreenleaf8238]

I’ve been gone a lot this summer for camp and stuff, so I’ve been without good food for a long time, but every time I get back I literally have ramen for lunch like for 4 days straight 😂 I think it’s a problem but I love it so much it really is my comfort food

[@ehmha3641]

Papaya Salad...for some reason the (actually great) thai restaurant in my neighbourhood crossed it off the menu -.-' I luckily live in a neighborhood where I can get pretty much anything even the rare Georgian cuisine (country not the state) which is the best cuisine ever

[@welpyes]

as a Filipino. i can't live to a place without asian food. NOODLES, FRIED RICE, ADOBO IS GOLD!!.

[@melissamayhaps8990]

I always have my mind blown by every kind of adobo. Filipino, but also Mexican adobo which is very popular, Puerto Rican adobo, and the -colonizers- Spanish adobo are all great. Lol

[@myyou7335]

I think it's spice for me. Yung mama ko nagluluto dito, konti lang spices. May konting spices sya dito pero minsan di rin ginagamit. Yung pancit na walang paminta, nilalagyan ko nalang sa serving bowl ko. If paminta is not a good choice dapat may sili.

Homemade Mexican food. The restaurants I've tried all usually make the food unbelievably salty (additionally, the beans are super hard some times and the tamales are so dry that they crumble. The menudo is also something from the restaurants I don't like because I've grown so used to the taste of family recipes.)

i grew up in a mexican household that made a lot of mexican food, but i can honestly not imagine only eating one kind of cuisine like this, like to the point where you are desperate for it after a week. i crave something different probably every day of the month! i can’t stand to eat the same type of food everyday, it’s so boring lol. i NEED to eat something different constantly or it’s unappetizing LMAO

[@minx_moca2530]

For me , it’s a common Hispanic breakfast(it consists of scrambled eggs sometimes covered in chorizo or a sort of Hispanic tomato sauce. And some boiled beans. This can be paired with Hispanic cream,queso fresco or queso duro,avocado, a hand made tortilla and a nice cup of coffee/other. After that,if you’re not full, you can have some pan dulce of your choice.)😊

As someone who is German (Bavarian) to be exact, I wouldn’t be able to eat just German food for long XD There are so many dishes from different European and Asian foods that I love and wouldn’t be able to live without. But there is one type of food Germany got all of the other countries beat: ✨bread✨ (and bread rolls but mostly bread) We have over 300 recipes for just bread and that’s not even counting bread rolls… it’s just the taste of home that I‘d miss after a while

I can't go over a week without eating Mexican food. I grew up eating it and it's such a major part of my palate that almost anything else I cook becomes southwest influenced in some way. I know in my family we can't go more than a couple months without making Colorado style chili verde, or, green chili in English. Growing up we would make a huge pot of chili verde and eat it for breakfast, lunch and dinner because you can eat it with eggs and a tortilla, you can make a smothered burrito, you can even make what my dad calls a Mexican hamburger which is just a hamburger in a tortilla smothered in chili verde. Mexican food is so universal and you can make something quick like a quesadilla or nachos or you can spend days making menudo, or like I am now just a couple hours making pinto beans and rice for beans and rice burritos the rest of this week! That's why I love Mexican food, it's accessible and if you're latino and can't make your own kind of chili, are you even latino?
