National Dishes of Countries around the World

What are the national dishes of the world? A national dish is a culinary dish that has a strong connection to a specific country.

National dishes are an important part of a country’s identity and self-image.

Furthermore, because national dishes are so interconnected with a nation’s sense of identity, choosing a country’s national dish can elicit strong emotions and conflicts.

However, some countries do not have an official national dish. Some dishes have become extremely popular in such countries.

In some cases, organizations have decided on national dishes through general public voting.
