More About Worldwide Cuisines (& Recipes)

Italian.Italian is one of the most consistently popular cuisines worldwide! Expect to see plenty of pizza, pasta, delectable sauces (like pesto, marinara, and alfredo), cheeses, tomatoes, and meats (like seafood and sausages) in Italian cuisine. Popular dishes include lasagna, pasta alfredo, chicken parmesan, and Margherita pizza. You’ll also see many herbs like basil and oregano—plus desserts like tiramisu or gelato.

Japanese.Japanese cuisine is known for being fresh, simple, balanced—and, of course, flavorful. Many Japanese recipes include various types of fish, pickled vegetables, or deep-fried veggies with rice. While there are many well-known Japanese dishes, from ramen, tempura, and teriyaki to miso soup, the most popular is absolutely sushi!

Recipes:


Indian.Indian cuisine is incredibly diverse, varying across the different regions of India—which is why there are so many flavors to choose from when you prepare Indian food. Indian cuisine often consists of hot, zesty, very flavorful food, usually accompanied by several spices and herbs. Popular Indian dishes include tandoori chicken, curry, samosas, biryani rice, and naan.

Recipes:


Mexican.Mexican cuisine is consistently colorful, spicy, and full of flavor. Traditionally, Mexican cuisine blends ingredients from that region of the Americas with Spanish flavors to create famous dishes like tacos, enchiladas, burritos, and guacamole. Mexican cuisine is a common street food—but also popular around the world because of how easily customizable it is.

Recipes:


Chinese.Chinese cuisine (like Indian) is extremely varied—though some staple dishes are known and loved worldwide. For example, Chinese dumplings are extremely popular, along with dishes that include stir-fried vegetables, rice, and meats. Chinese cuisine has been the inspiration behind various foods from other countries, including the Philippines, Thailand, and Vietnam.

Recipes:


Greek.Greece is one of the world’s oldest cultures—so naturally, Greek cuisine has been well-known (and loved) for a long time worldwide. Because Greece is heavily influenced by its proximity to the sea, Greek food typically involves a lot of fish, squid, mussels, and lobster. However, it’s also got plenty of other foods, including the popular eggplant-based moussaka, tzatziki (which is a type of dip), and a sweet pastry with nuts and honey called Baklava.

Recipes:


French.French food is considered some of the best in the world! French cuisine utilizes ingredients like butter, cream, wine, herbs, vegetables, and chocolate. Classic dishes include ratatouille, bouillabaisse, onion soup, and steak tartare. French pastries—including the iconic croissant—are also known worldwide, along with various wines, bread, and cheeses.

Recipes:


Traditional American.It’s not always obvious what counts as American cuisine because American cuisine blends together all the different flavors, ingredients, and cultures of people who have immigrated to the United States over many years. Often, American chefs adapt regional versions of a dish—and that’s what defines it as American. For example, burgers, fries, fried chicken, and deep-dish pizza are all examples of foods that have been adapted and brought into the fold of “American cuisine.”
