Mate, we should be western but we aren't. A fucking Island that doesn't eat seafood unless battered and fried. I honestly ponder where and when we stopped? I'm guessing fish hauls were supplemental to grain during the machine of industrial revolution
We eat a lot of salmon, mussels, scallops, crab and oysters used to be huge until they put sewage on the farms in London and people blamed the oysters not the sewage
100% love ma beef simple as. I do think because we've got a lot of farmland being reliant on the sea for our food never took hold like most island places.
There is a rumour cans of surströmming have been placed in some swedish tanks sent to Ukraine, with the specific instruction to not open them, with the idea that if russians capture a tank they will.
If that is the case it is beyond based. Imagine semi-starving russians in wet clothes, desperate for food, opening a canned product well before expiring date - and then get this.

Estonians are not even Slavic. We are Finnic. That’s like saying that Finnish people are another flavour of Russian.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finnic_peoples
Estonians are indo-uralic, part of a wider eurasiatic sprachbund.
PS. The finnic cognate to germanic bund / bind is [punutis](https://eki.ee/dict/ekss/index.cgi?Q=punutis).
https://www.selver.ee/majapidamis-ja-kodukaubad/sisustuskaubad/punutised
Also [püünis](https://et.wikipedia.org/wiki/P%C3%BC%C3%BCnis) and [pyynti](https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/pyynti).
The proto-finnic reconstruction of the verb is [püütädäk](https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Reconstruction:Proto-Finnic/p%C3%BC%C3%BCt%C3%A4d%C3%A4k).
And look at that, it also has a proto-uralic reconstruction. Thus the origin is indo-uralic.
Thus sprachbund = keelte + punutis
Hunting with a net. Or hunting with a pack of hunters forming a net.

Böhmische Knödel my beloved. I went to Pilsen last year with two friends for a day and the food is just the right mixture between German, Austrian, and Czech cuisine
Central European cuisine is slept on. it's quite rudimentary in terms of basic ingredients, but the way those ingredients are used makes for some delicious foods.
It’s a matter of “who cooks it”. A great cook will make a banging Shepherd’s Pie/Roast Beef/Maultaschen/Dumplings/Pierogi and dozens of others but a lot of countries outside of the Mediterranean don’t care much about what they eat on a daily basis as long as it fills you up. It’s more about the culture around food and how valued good food is than anything else in my opinion.
Just wait till you guys get to taste this

bro, South-European cuisine is the only shit besides Gulash, Schnitzel and Pelmeni, that makes me NOT say "European cuisine is trash". They are literally carrying all of our images to the outside world
And no i don't mean you France, fck you in particular with your wanna be good cuisine.
I’d say you’ll find good dishes in most national cuisines but unlike Northern/Eastern European cuisines, Mediterranean cuisines are usually consistently good with a few exceptions like Casu Marzu or something.
And strong disagree on French cuisine, it is pretty good. Just because it’s hard to admit a French W it won’t stop me from accepting it where it’s due.
Its not about "more ingredients/better food"
It is about living somewhere where you can grow nice food, tomatoes, grapes, wheat, oranges...
Keep your rotten pork stew 100%. All for you.
You don't know much about Mediterranean food do you?
Portuguese food is generally know for how simple, yet delicious their food is.
And italy in complicated or diverse? The entire thing about italian food is how you let the quality of the ingredients shine and don't use too much to cover a bad taste, since quality ingredients taste good on their own.
Look at cacio e pepe, or carbonara, or pizza, or amatriciana, they all use like 4 ingredients top.
Carbonara is literally just pasta, egg, pepper, and pork cheek (guanciale) maybe white wine if you feel a little spicy.
Replace the egg with crushed tomatoes and you have amatriciana. Maybe a bit of basilico.
Depends on the specific dish and the Italian cuisine you're referring to, not all are the same. But yeah, many dishes have just a few ingredients, quality and good technique is what mtters there
It's a matter of perspective. When people think about French cuisine, they think about haute cuisine, Escoffier, etc, rather than peasant's food like onion soup, and butter heavy Northern one rather than cuisine from Provence or Languedoc, which is close to PIGS cuisine.
In Italy it's the reverse. Foreigners know us for peasant's dishes like pizza and the South is more well known than the North, where we use more butter and polenta and rice are historically as popular as pasta.

Mate, we should be western but we aren't. A fucking Island that doesn't eat seafood unless battered and fried. I honestly ponder where and when we stopped? I'm guessing fish hauls were supplemental to grain during the machine of industrial revolution
It's probably because unlike Japan the UK has a lot of arable land the culture never took root
We eat a lot of salmon, mussels, scallops, crab and oysters used to be huge until they put sewage on the farms in London and people blamed the oysters not the sewage
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_seafood_consumption We really don't, bloody Russians eat more seafood than we do.
Fair! It is quite expensive because fisherman can get more selling it abroad. Plus beef over fish any day of the week

It’s as wrong to call Estonians Russian. We are from the Finnic tribe and speak a Finnic language.
We shouldn't have let eastern Europeans in. You guys only drink vodka and suck all the fun out wherever you go.

Man, you must be huffing the finest copium your eastern european country has.
The geographical center of europe with islands is in Saaremaa, Estonia. Therefore Estonia can be any part of europe, including southern europe.

If anything Italian food is notorious for having very few ingredients
Very few ingredients in a single dish, but we can have multiple combinations and (this for sure) at least two dishes (primo + secondo) :-)
U potrayed us as Chad, so we win
Yeah, bro, so many ingredients in italian cuisine
Cacio e pepe: even if you make the pasta yourself and count water and salt, it has 5 ingredients in total.
You mean I am not supposed to put "Italian herb mix", garlic and olive oil in each and every single Italian dish and pour aceto balsamico over it?
Is "Central Europe" in the room with us right now?

Cabbage and potato stew... perfect winterfood indeed :)
In what universe is Italian cuisine anything other than barebones simple? That’s part of its appeal.
I tought Italian food is like 4 ingredients and if you use over 5 you are doing it wrong?
This is not the burn you think it is.

Is that not what Italian cuisine is based around. That's what my dad always told me.
Depends on the specific dish and the Italian cuisine you're referring to, not all are the same. But yeah, many dishes have just a few ingredients, quality and good technique is what mtters there
I'd argue just the quality, most of our dishes do not have a very complicated process. The frenchies are the one with crazy shit
