For me it’s Indian food, but then… what else? Ugh… what a question.
Bah. My mind is a whirling blank right here. I mean, freshly-prepared tiradito right off the boat is like… ffff, like tasting heaven.
I mean, I’ve never had *truly* fresh, truly authentic sushi, but I imagine it would be like tiradito? (note: it’s a form of ceviche, i.e. latino lime-cooked fish slices)
If Indian qualifies as one single cuisine - then Indian. I’ll have enough dishes to try out in my lifetime and that’s after considering I am vegetarian.
I guess you’re probably right. India is a large country, with roots, cultures and traditions like an ancient sequoia tree’s vast, extensive roots in the ground.
So just out of curiosity (especially as an ignorant Westerner), just how many distinct cuisines would you say there might be across India and the India-adjacent regions?
Note: let’s try to avoid going ‘regional’ if possible, because any nation can be broken down in to heaps of regional variations, yeah?
