Any dish is authentic "Israeli" cuisine as long as it is cooked in a kitchen you stole from someone else.

[–] propter_hog@hexbear.net 11 points 7 months ago

If it wasn't cooked in a stolen kitchen it's not really isr*eli, it's just sparkling apartheid

ooooooh so the shitty food comes from being a settler

[–] dannoffs@hexbear.net 56 points 7 months ago (1 children)

White culture is subjugating the world for its spices and then still making the most shit food you've ever seen.

Australia is deeply evil for many reasons, but I’m very glad that somehow we fucked up our food less than the other Anglos, by assimilating foods wholesale from other cultures (Italians in particular).

Hot take: Italian food is shit and derivative

Like yeah you can put a billion tons of garlic and cheese on anything and say its Italian

[–] Huldra@hexbear.net 20 points 7 months ago (1 children)

People get really fucking goofy about Italian food.

Like oh, this cuisine unlike any other is based on having fresh and high quality ingredients?

Sorry, British food also gets better if you have top quality ingredients and spend endless hours making sauce or stock for them.

[–] hotcouchguy@hexbear.net 14 points 7 months ago (1 children)

They're very serious about "authenticity" but much of it was invented post-WW2. It's an intentional national cultural project more than some ancient tradition.

[–] Huldra@hexbear.net 11 points 7 months ago

Genuinely absurd fascist shit going on with that, like you have random bumfuck towns issuing public denouncements about how a michelin star chef broke the papal edicts by placing a single mildly smashed clove of garlic in his recipe for a tomato sauce named after bumfuck lombardy.

And in their denouncement they cite that their special tomato sauce has over 1000 years of unbroken tradition and history, and adding garlic is spitting on that.

Adding tomatoes like over half the way through those 1000 years does not count however.

Now thats a spicy meataball

[–] Farvana@lemmygrad.ml 9 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Take this with a huge grain of salt, but I read that Italians only claimed pasta as a national dish because Mussolini pushed it- some kind of effort towards a national identity.

dont forget schnitzel!

[–] Lussy@hexbear.net 11 points 7 months ago

Masoor Dal

Is this an affront to Masoor Dal? Not sure how to take this.

[–] keepcarrot@hexbear.net 11 points 7 months ago

I think I remember fish and chips being a Jewish import to Britain after some pogrom in Spain.

[–] joaomarrom@hexbear.net 41 points 7 months ago (1 children)

at this point the only thing that's keeping israelis from claiming feijoada as their traditional black bean stew is the fact that it's made with pork

[–] propter_hog@hexbear.net 6 points 7 months ago

Feijoāo is still up for grabs, though

[–] KrupskayaPraxis@lemmygrad.ml 39 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I was once in a Jewish restaurant where they listed Shakshuka as an Israeli dish on the menu. And Cholent, an Ashkenazi European dish that existed way before Israel, was also listed as Israeli.

[–] Evilsandwichman@hexbear.net 36 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (1 children)

If Israel had invaded Osaka:

"Try some authentic Israeli cuisine such as Sushi and cholent!"

[–] Hestia@hexbear.net 16 points 7 months ago

I just looked up if sushi was kosher and the rules for something being "kosher" is a bit ridiculous when it comes to fish.

That looks British and disgusting (redundant)

[–] TheLepidopterists@hexbear.net 29 points 7 months ago

It's a regional dish from New York (Rochester specifically) invented by a Greek immigrant in the early 1900s.

It does look disgusting though.

[–] Lemmygradwontallowme@hexbear.net 20 points 7 months ago (1 children)

British

Wdym, it's a New Yoka classic

It's apparently specifically Greek-New Yorker(Rochester)

[–] REEEEvolution@lemmygrad.ml 7 points 7 months ago

The name is honest at least.

[–] CliffordBigRedDog@hexbear.net 33 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (1 children)

The British tradition of eating fish battered and fried in oil may have been introduced to the country by the Chuts: Spanish and Portuguese Jewish immigrants, who had lived in the Netherlands before settling in the UK.

[–] Lemmygradwontallowme@hexbear.net 28 points 7 months ago

Jewish, not Israeli

[–] huf@hexbear.net 28 points 7 months ago (4 children)

soggy fries is something i will never understand. greek kebab, canadian poutine, whatever fresh hell this shit is.

fries is the one thing you dont want any sog on.

[–] Xavienth@lemmygrad.ml 24 points 7 months ago (1 children)

If your poutine is soggy then the fries were prepared poorly. Costco does it well, the fries retain their crispy exterior. There are a lot of ways to get poutine wrong, unfortunately. It's a very particular dish.

shouldn't the sog be added right before eating, so the fry is still crispy but blanketed in a nice saucy thing? if so i'll take it, but if it's been sitting in sog for more than 60 seconds and the fry has absorbed the sog and turned into shitty warm greasy potato salad, then no 3Q

[–] keepcarrot@hexbear.net 8 points 7 months ago

Really should be a dip then

[–] SoyViking@hexbear.net 19 points 7 months ago

Fries should never be served smothered in sauce. It will turn them soggy. Serve the dipping sauce on the side to minimise the contact time between fries and sauce

You can get away with pouring a mayo-based sauce on them but a water-based sauce like ketchup or gravy will absolutely ruin your fries.

I think if we can get this astroturfed into /r/casualuk we can get Keir Starmer to approve a trident strike on Tel Aviv by Christmas.
