How to Cook dishes from Belgium
Belgium
has is famous throughout the world for a number of food and drink products
that come from the country, including
Ardennes pâté, Belgian beers, Belgian chocolate, and of course waffles.
Additionally, Belgium is also
well known for its
French fries (Dutch: Frieten;
French: Frites),
and some people are of the opinion that the best
French fries in the world come from
stalls,
known as "frituur" or "frietkot"
(Dutch), or
"friture" (French),
inn many Belgian squares.
Cooked Belgian food is also very good too, and has a very good reputation.
It has been said that
say that Belgian cuisine offers the quality of
French cuisine but with the portion sizes that you get in
German cuisine, and there is in fact a certain truth to that.
Some of the most popular Belgian recipes and dishes include:
- Gegratineerd witloof (French: Chicon Gratin) - Endives (a bitter-tasting form of chicory) cooked in melted cheese.
- Kippenwaterzooi (French: Waterzooi de poulet) - A chicken stew, with carrots, leeks and potatoes. Butter, cream and eggs are used in the recipe, enriching the dish.
- Konijn in Gueuze (French: Lapin á la Gueuze) -
Rabbit cooked in Belgian Gueuze beer.
- Luikse sla (French: Salade Liégeoise) - This is a green bean salad, with onions and bacon, and flavored with vinegar.
- Mosselen-friet (French: Moules frites) - Mussels with
French fries.
- Paling In 't Groen (French: Anguilles au vert) - Eel soup, flavored with mixed herbs.
- Stoemp - Mashed potatoes (and sometimes other root vegetables) with bacon and cream, and flavored with herbs and spices.
- Viszooitje (French: Waterzooi de poissons) - A fish stew (eel, bass, carp or pike may be used), with carrots, leeks and potatoes. Butter, cream and eggs are used in the recipe, enriching the dish.
- Vlaamse stoofkarbonaden (French: Carbonnades Flamandes) - A beef stew, somewhat similar to Beef Bourguignon (French: Bœuf bourguignon). However the stew is cooked in Belgian beer rather than red wine.

Belgian food and drink, often overshadowed by the those of powerhouse neighbors France and Germany, receive much deserved attention in this thorough overview, the most comprehensive available in English. Belgian waffles, chocolate, and beer are renowned, but Food Culture in Belgium opens up the entire food culture spectrum and reveals Belgian food habits today and yesterday. Students and food mavens learn about the question of Belgianness in discussions of the foodways of distinct regions of Flanders, Wallonia, and Brussels. Packed with daily life insight, consumption statistics, and trends gathered from the culinary community on the Web, this is the ultimate source for discovering what has been called the best-kept culinary secret in Europe. Scholliers thoroughly covers the essential information in the topical chapters on history, major foods and ingredients, cooking, typical meals, special occasions, eating out, and diet and health. He is keen to illuminate how Belgium's unique food culture has developed through time. Before independence in 1830, Belgian regions had been part of the Celtic, Roman, Spanish, Austrian, French, Dutch, and German empires, and Belgium's central location has meant that it has long been a trade center for food products. Today, Brussels is the European Union administrative center and a cosmopolitan dining destination. Readers learn about the ingredients, techniques, and dishes that Belgium gave to the world, such as pommes frites, endive, and beer dishes. A timeline, glossary, selected bibliography, resource guide with websites and films, recipes, and photos complement the essays. |
