The staple food of Afghans is pancake pilaf, which is made by grinding and baking wheat, barley, corn, dried mulberries and peas. There are two kinds of cakes with and without stuffing. But no matter which kind, the baked cake smells delicious, and it has a unique taste when it is torn and eaten with roast mutton. Pilaf is to heat oil in a pot, stir-fry shredded carrots and chopped green onion, add water, sheep oil and salt, boil the rice, put it on a plate after cooking, and mix with lemon juice, pepper or other seasonings. Afghans often drink a kind of yogurt soup boiled with proper amount of yogurt, salt and cucumber slices in summer. They like sour, spicy and fragrant. Milk, beef and mutton are important foods on the table. Of course, we also eat chickens and ducks, but we don't eat pork and seldom eat fish. They often use roast leg of lamb to roast whole sheep on important festivals or when entertaining VIPs. Its production method is: firstly, the sheepskin and internal organs are removed, washed (sometimes rice, salt and other ingredients are stuffed into the belly of the sheep), strung on an iron bar specially used for barbecue, fixed with brackets at both ends, and then lit with charcoal for barbecue. After roasting, cut the meat with a knife and dip it in salt, pepper or other seasonings. Afghans also eat "horse sausage". "Horse intestines" means putting horse meat and salt in horse intestines, cooking them and drying them in the sun. Afghans often use milk as a drink, and they also like to drink tea. The types of tea are milk tea and brick tea. When you invite someone to drink tea, you often have to drink three cups in a row. The first glass stops drinking, the second glass shows friendship, and the third glass is polite. If you really don't want to drink any more, you can cover the cup with your hand to show your refusal. Afghans believe in Islam. Men and women don't sit at the same table, and male and female guests can't eat in the same room. Be sure to wash your hands before meals, guests should wash their hands first, and hosts should wash their hands afterwards. When eating, use the tray with your left hand and grab the food with your right hand. The order of eating is to serve food first, grab rice in the middle, and then serve food and fruit. Guests also have a good hand after dinner. The characteristics of Iraqi diet The eating habits of Iraqis have the following characteristics: 1 Pay attention to the freshness and fragrance of dishes, and pay attention to the quality and quantity of meals. 2, the taste is generally light, preferring sweetness. 3, the staple food is noodles (scones) as the staple food, and loves to eat desserts. 4.

Fruits like peaches, watermelons, honeydew melons, olives and bananas. Dried fruits like candied dates, almonds and raisins. Like most Arab countries, the staple food in Iraq is rice, and the most widely used recipe is fried rice. Of course, I also like to eat white bread. Every household in Iraq will pickle a large jar of olives and chew a few before each meal. Iraqis don't like green vegetables very much. The most common are cucumbers and tomatoes, which are usually chopped and eaten raw with olive oil and lemon juice. Sometimes you can bake vegetables a little. It is customary to mix jujube juice with milk and goat's milk as a delicious dish. Many traditional dishes are very close to Syrian and Lebanese dishes, such as roast sheep, kebabs and some fried meat cooked in the stove. Iraqi food is very strong, with a lot of peppers, onions, garlic and various horseradish and spices. It is quite common to eat pasta such as sweets and fruit pies, as well as yogurt, yogurt residue and cheese. Iraqis don't eat concentrated dishes and rarely drink alcoholic beverages. It is more common to drink yogurt with a lot of foam and various fruit juice drinks, such as almond juice. Gus: A pan-Arabic food in which rice is fried in oil, stewed and mixed with many seasonings. Some sprinkle ground rice flour, beans, raisins or dried fruits on the rice, then add a large piece of roast mutton or roast chicken to the rice, and give you two bowls of thick soup before serving. It's delicious. Grilled fish: The fish in Tigris River are very fat. Not too fat, 1 kg to 67 kg, scary. There seems to be only one way for Iraqis to eat fish, "Masguff", which is the Arabic name for grilled fish. It's a pity that all the people who come to Iraq have never eaten this kind of grilled fish. The fish in the Tigris River are big and fat, and they are most suitable for grilled fish. Iraqis generally like to use local materials. After washing the fish, they don't have to scrape the scales. They put some wooden stakes on the ground with strong branches, hung the whole fish, and then made a fire with wooden blocks or dry branches cut from date palms. Let the fish roast in hot air. When it is almost finished, put the fish in an iron plate, and then reheat the whole plate in the embers of the fire. Add sauce, tomatoes, tomatoes. Dolmai: Blanch fresh grape leaves in boiling water, wrap them with cooked rice and meat stuffing, make them into rectangles and circles, add lemon juice and spices, and bake them in the oven for a while. Some people use zucchini, green pepper and eggplant to make it, such as hollowing out zucchini and stuffing it with materials. Some locals will do this very sourly. It is said that there is also Dolmai in Iran. Kuba: Steam the rice, mash it, wrap it with meat, and then fry it in oil until it is golden yellow, round or oval. This is a very common family food in Iraq. It is said that Kuba is from Syria. Black tea: Iraqis like to drink black tea with a special small glass teacup called Ashtar. It is said that black tea comes from Turkey, because Iraq was ruled by the Ottoman Turkish Empire for quite a long time. Iraqis especially like to add a lot of sugar to black tea. When some people drink tea, they will put half a cup of sugar in a cup of tea, which will make their throats ache. Hookah: "Nalakiri", the traditional hookah that Arab men like to smoke after meals. You can see hookahs in the streets and alleys. Most men like to sit quietly and smoke thoughtfully, so it is always quiet in the Arab hookah. Date: "God's Gift to Iraq", and everyone in Iraq is deeply proud of it. 80% of the date palm trees in the world are in Iraq. Date palm trees are everywhere in Iraq. In the suburbs of Baghdad, the scenery of date palm trees is unmatched by any other country. Every time the dates are ripe, you can see a large cluster of ripe dates rotting on the ground, because there are too many dates, and only ants patronize their rich sugar. But now thanks to the date palm tree, it has helped many poor Iraqis live a hard life of sanctions. Arabian cake: It is one of the staple foods of Iraqis, similar to beef tongue cake in China. When eating, tear it into small pieces by hand and eat it with beef, mutton or tomatoes and raw cucumbers. No matter what you order, people will give you some cucumbers and tomatoes first, and then some big cakes, all of which are free. There is also a staple food called "Smna", a big bread in the shape of the Yangtze River Delta. Iraqis generally like to buy this kind of bread to go home, and it is very cheap.
