But what about this: bortsch flavoured instant noodles - barszcz czerwony - courtesy of my local Polish deli*:
Most interesting. Not comparable to the real (soup) thing, obviously, but as far as instant noodles go, it's no worse than the more common varieties.
Culinary multiculturalism rules?

Culinary multiculturalism rules, big time!

I don't think so. You need a gallon of the best LAPHROAIG to wash this down!
ReplyDeleteReally interesting :-)
ReplyDeletePaz - I wonder what other interesting multiculti/multiculinary combinations can we think of:)
ReplyDeleteRoxy - well, not sure you want to precede a good whisky with fast food noodles in the first place, but you might be just right here..
Dagmar - yep, the Polish shop is full of interesting revelations. But I'm happy to live close to it, as it does stock lots of basic stuff (milk curd, rye bread, good sour cream etc)
In Toronto, where I used to live, there was a Hungarian-Thai restaurant. Most of the dishes were emanating from a single culture but I remember reading about a few interesting combinations of flavours on the menu.
ReplyDeleteHungarian-Thai restaurant!?!? That's even weirder than Polish-Mexican fusion!
ReplyDeleteI wonder what Zsofi thinks of that:)
