Æbleflæsk

Æbleflæsk (danish pronunciation: [ˈeːpləˌflesk], apple-pork) is a traditional danish dish consisting of cured or salted pork belly (known as flæsk), fried with apples, thyme and sugar. chopped onion is often fried with the apples. there are many versions, ranging from a sweet apple mash with small cubes of bacon, to larger slices of lightly salted and fried pork, arranged with the fried apples and onions on a dish. in a version common today, the pork belly is fried first in a skillet, and then followed by pieces of tart apples. while the apples are frying, they are mixed with spices and sugar. the apples should soften up before they are done. when ready to serve, either cold or hot, the pork and apples are mixed and rugbrød is offered on the side. in alternative versions, the apples are cooked in water instead and the pork belly is prepared in the oven. æbleflæsk is often enjoyed with beer and snaps. it is a popular dish for pre-christmas buffets (julefrokost). it is not clear where the dish originated. it is beloved in some regions, such as funen, while less common in other parts of the country.

Aioli

Aioli, allioli or aïoli ( or ; provençal occitan: alhòli [aˈʎɔli] or aiòli [aˈjɔli]; catalan: allioli [ˌaʎiˈɔli]; spanish: alioli [ˌaliˈoli]) is a cold sauce consisting of an emulsion of garlic, salt, olive oil, and often egg; it is found in the cuisines of the northwest mediterranean, from andalusia to calabria. the names mean "garlic and oil" in catalan, provençal and italian. it is found in the cuisines of the mediterranean coasts of spain (catalonia, the valencian community, the balearic islands, murcia and eastern andalusia), france (provence), italy (sicily and calabria), and malta. some versions of the sauce are closer to a garlic mayonnaise, incorporating egg yolks and lemon juice, whereas other versions are without egg yolk and have more garlic. this gives the sauce a pastier texture, while making it more laborious to make as the emulsion is harder to stabilize. there are many variations, such as adding lemon juice or other seasonings. in france, it may include mustard.like mayonnaise, aioli is an emulsion or suspension of small globules of oil and oil-soluble compounds in water and water-soluble compounds. in spain, purists believe aioli should not include egg, but in france and elsewhere, egg or egg yolk is the usual emulsifier. since about 1990, it has become common in the united states to call all flavored mayonnaises aioli. purists insist that flavored mayonnaise can contain garlic, but true aioli contains garlic and no other seasoning (except salt).

Asti

Asti (also known as asti spumante) is a sparkling white italian wine that is produced throughout southeastern piedmont but is particularly focused around the towns of asti and alba. since 1993 the wine has been classified as a denominazione di origine controllata e garantita (docg) and as of 2004 was italy's largest producing appellation. on an average vintage more than ten times as much asti is produced in piedmont than the more well-known piedmontese red wine barolo.made from the moscato bianco grape, it is sweet and low in alcohol, and often served with dessert. unlike champagne, asti is not made sparkling through the use of secondary fermentation in the bottle but rather through a single tank fermentation utilizing the charmat method. it retains its sweetness through a complex filtration process. another wine called moscato d'asti is made in the same region from the same grape, but is only slightly sparkling (frizzante) and tends to have even lower alcohol.on 22 june 2014, vineyard landscape of piedmont: langhe-roero and monferrato was declared a unesco world heritage site. this landscape covers five distinct wine-growing areas and the castle of cavour, an important site both in the development of vineyards and in italian history.

Bacon

Bacon is a type of salt-cured pork made from various cuts, typically the belly or less fatty parts of the back. it is eaten as a side dish (particularly in breakfasts), used as a central ingredient (e.g., the bacon, lettuce, and tomato sandwich (blt), or as a flavouring or accent (as in bacon bits in a salad). bacon is also used for barding and larding roasts, especially game, including venison and pheasant, and may also be used to insulate or flavour roast joints by being layered onto the meat. the word is derived from the proto-germanic *bakkon, meaning "back meat". meat from other animals, such as beef, lamb, chicken, goat, or turkey, may also be cut, cured, or otherwise prepared to resemble bacon, and may even be referred to as, for example, "turkey bacon". such use is common in areas with significant jewish and muslim populations as both religions prohibit the consumption of pork. vegetarian bacons such as "soy bacon" also exist.

Drink

Beer

Beer is one of the oldest and most widely consumed alcoholic drinks in the world, and the third most popular drink overall after water and tea. it is produced by the brewing and fermentation of starches, mainly derived from cereal grains—most commonly from malted barley, though wheat, maize (corn), rice, and oats are also used. during the brewing process, fermentation of the starch sugars in the wort produces ethanol and carbonation in the resulting beer. most modern beer is brewed with hops, which add bitterness and other flavours and act as a natural preservative and stabilizing agent. other flavouring agents such as gruit, herbs, or fruits may be included or used instead of hops. in commercial brewing, the natural carbonation effect is often removed during processing and replaced with forced carbonation.some of humanity's earliest known writings refer to the production and distribution of beer: the code of hammurabi included laws regulating beer and beer parlours, and "the hymn to ninkasi", a prayer to the mesopotamian goddess of beer, served as both a prayer and as a method of remembering the recipe for beer in a culture with few literate people.beer is distributed in bottles and cans and is also commonly available on draught, particularly in pubs and bars. the brewing industry is a global business, consisting of several dominant multinational companies and many thousands of smaller producers ranging from brewpubs to regional breweries. the strength of modern beer is usually around 4% to 6% alcohol by volume (abv), although it may vary between 0.5% and 20%, with some breweries creating examples of 40% abv and above.beer forms part of the culture of many nations and is associated with social traditions such as beer festivals, as well as a rich pub culture involving activities like pub crawling, pub quizzes and pub games. when beer is distilled, the resulting liquor is a form of whisky.

Drink

Black coffee

Coffee is a brewed drink prepared from roasted coffee beans, the seeds of berries from certain flowering plants in the coffea genus. from the coffee fruit, the seeds are separated to produce a stable, raw product: unroasted green coffee. the seeds are then roasted, a process which transforms them into a consumable product: roasted coffee, which is ground into fine particles that are typically steeped in hot water before being filtered out, producing a cup of coffee. coffee is darkly colored, bitter, slightly acidic and has a stimulating effect in humans, primarily due to its caffeine content. it is one of the most popular drinks in the world and can be prepared and presented in a variety of ways (e.g., espresso, french press, caffè latte, or already-brewed canned coffee). it is usually served hot, although chilled or iced coffee is common. sugar, sugar substitutes, milk or cream are often used to lessen the bitter taste or enhance the flavor. it may be served with coffee cake or another sweet dessert, like doughnuts. a commercial establishment that sells prepared coffee beverages is known as a coffeehouse or coffee shop (not to be confused with dutch coffeeshops selling cannabis). clinical research indicates that moderate coffee consumption is benign or mildly beneficial as a stimulant in healthy adults, with continuing research on whether long-term consumption has positive or negative effects.though coffee is now a global commodity, it has a long history tied closely to food traditions around the red sea. the earliest credible evidence of the drinking of coffee in the form of the modern beverage appears in modern-day yemen from the mid-15th century in sufi shrines, where coffee seeds were first roasted and brewed in a manner similar to current methods. the yemenis procured the coffee beans from the ethiopian highlands via coastal somali intermediaries and began cultivation. by the 16th century, the drink had reached the rest of the middle east and north africa, later spreading to europe. in the 20th century, coffee became a much more global commodity, creating different coffee cultures around the world. the two most commonly grown coffee bean types are c. arabica and c. robusta. coffee plants are cultivated in over 70 countries, primarily in the equatorial regions of the americas, southeast asia, the indian subcontinent, and africa. as of 2018, brazil was the leading grower of coffee beans, producing 35% of the world total. coffee is a major export commodity as the leading legal agricultural export for numerous countries. it is one of the most valuable commodities exported by developing countries. green, unroasted coffee is the most traded agricultural commodity and one of the most traded commodities overall, second only to petroleum. despite the sales of coffee reaching billions of dollars, those actually producing the beans are disproportionately living in poverty. critics also point to the coffee industry's negative impact on the environment and the clearing of land for coffee-growing and water use. the environmental costs and wage disparity of farmers are causing the market for fair trade and organic coffee to expand.

Bouillabaisse

Bouillabaisse (french: [bu.ja.bɛs]; occitan: bolhabaissa, bullabessa [ˌbuʎaˈβajsɔ / ˌbujaˈbajsɔ]) is a traditional provençal fish stew originating in the port city of marseille. the french and english form bouillabaisse comes from the provençal occitan word bolhabaissa, a compound that consists of the two verbs bolhir (to boil) and abaissar (to reduce heat, i.e., simmer). bouillabaisse was originally a stew made by marseille fishermen, using the bony rockfish which they were unable to sell to restaurants or markets. there are at least three kinds of fish in a traditional bouillabaisse, typically red rascasse (scorpaena scrofa); sea robin; and european conger. it can also include gilt-head bream, turbot, monkfish, mullet, or european hake. it usually also includes shellfish and other seafood such as sea urchins, mussels, velvet crabs, spider crab or octopus. more expensive versions may add langoustine or dublin bay prawn (norway lobster), though this was not part of the traditional dish made by marseille fishermen. vegetables such as leeks, onions, tomatoes, celery, and potatoes are simmered together with the broth and served with the fish. the broth is traditionally served with a rouille, a mayonnaise made of olive oil, garlic, saffron, and cayenne pepper on grilled slices of bread. what makes a bouillabaisse different from other fish soups is the selection of provençal herbs and spices in the broth; the use of bony local mediterranean fish; the way the fish are added one at a time, and brought to a boil; and the method of serving. in marseille, the broth is served first in a soup plate with slices of bread and rouille, then the fish is served separately on a large platter (see image at top); or, more simply, as julia child suggests, the fish and broth are brought to the table separately and served together in large soup plates.

Brioche

Brioche (, also uk: , us: , french: [bʁijɔʃ]) is a bread of french origin whose high egg and butter content gives it a rich and tender crumb. chef joël robuchon described it as "light and slightly puffy, more or less fine, according to the proportion of butter and eggs." it has a dark, golden, and flaky crust, frequently accentuated by an egg wash applied after proofing. brioche is considered a viennoiserie because it is made in the same basic way as bread, but has the richer aspect of a pastry because of the extra addition of eggs, butter, liquid (milk, water, cream, and, sometimes, brandy) and occasionally sugar. brioche, along with pain au lait and pain aux raisins—which are commonly eaten at breakfast or as a snack—form a leavened subgroup of viennoiserie. brioche is often cooked with fruit or chocolate chips and served on its own, or as the basis of a dessert with many local variations in added ingredients, fillings or toppings.

Brisket is a cut of meat from the breast or lower chest of beef or veal. the beef brisket is one of the nine beef primal cuts, though the definition of the cut differs internationally. the brisket muscles include the superficial and deep pectorals. as cattle do not have collar bones, these muscles support about 60% of the body weight of standing or moving cattle. this requires a significant amount of connective tissue, so the resulting meat must be cooked correctly to tenderise it. according to the random house dictionary of the english language, second edition, the term derives from the middle english brusket which comes from the earlier old norse brjósk, meaning cartilage. the cut overlies the sternum, ribs, and connecting costal cartilages.

Brownies

A chocolate brownie or simply a brownie is a square or rectangular chocolate baked confection. brownies come in a variety of forms and may be either fudgy or cakey, depending on their density. brownies often, but not always, have a glossy "skin" on their upper crust. they may also include nuts, frosting, cream cheese, chocolate chips, or other ingredients. a variation made with brown sugar and vanilla rather than chocolate in the batter is called a blond brownie or blondie. the brownie was developed in the united states at the end of the 19th century and popularized there during the first half of the 20th century. they are typically eaten by hand, often accompanied by milk, served warm with ice cream (a la mode), topped with whipped cream, or sprinkled with powdered sugar and fudge. in north america, they are common homemade treats and they are also popular in restaurants and coffeehouses.

Caffè macchiato (italian pronunciation: [kafˈfɛ mmakˈkjaːto] (listen)), sometimes called espresso macchiato, is an espresso coffee drink with a small amount of milk, usually foamed. in italian, macchiato means "stained" or "spotted", so the literal translation of caffè macchiato is "stained coffee" or "marked coffee".

Drink

Cappuccino

A cappuccino ( (listen); italian pronunciation: [kapputˈtʃiːno]; italian plural: cappuccini) is an espresso-based coffee drink that originated in austria with later development taking place in italy, and is prepared with steamed milk foam (microfoam).variations of the drink involve the use of cream instead of milk, using non-dairy milk substitutes and flavoring with cinnamon or chocolate powder. it is typically smaller in volume than a caffè latte, with a thicker layer of microfoam.the name comes from the capuchin friars, referring to the colour of their habits, and in this context referring to the colour of the beverage when milk is added in small portion to dark, brewed coffee (today mostly espresso). the physical appearance of a modern cappuccino with espresso créma and steamed milk is a result of a long evolution of the drink. the viennese bestowed the name "kapuziner", possibly in the 18th century, on a version that included whipped cream and spices of unknown origin. the italian cappuccino was unknown outside italy until the 1930s, and seems to be born out of viennese-style cafés in trieste and other italian areas in austria-hungary through the kapuziner coffee in the early 20th century. the drink spread from trieste, the main coffee port in central europe, throughout italy, especially after world war i and later worldwide, and can be found at a number of establishments.

Breakfast

Cereal

Cereal, formally termed breakfast cereal (and further categorized as cold cereal or warm cereal), is a traditional breakfast food made from processed cereal grains. it is traditionally eaten as part of breakfast, or a snack food, primarily in western societies. although warm cereals like porridge and grits have the longest history, ready-to-eat cold cereals appeared around the late 19th century, and are most often mixed with milk (traditionally cow's milk), but can also be paired with yogurt instead or eaten plain. fruit or nuts are sometimes added. many cereals are produced via extrusion. some companies promote their products for the health benefits that come from eating oat-based and high-fiber cereals. in the united states, cereals are often fortified with vitamins but can still lack many of the vitamins needed for a healthy breakfast. a significant proportion of cereals have a high sugar content ("sugar cereals" or "sugary cereals" in common parlance). some cereals are marketed primarily towards children, feature a cartoon mascot, and may contain a toy or prize. between 1970 and 1998, the number of different types of breakfast cereals in the u.s. more than doubled, from about 160 to around 340; as of 2012, there were roughly 4,945 different types (estimate based on the mass customization of online shopping). in this highly competitive market, cereal companies have developed an ever-increasing number of varieties and flavors (some are flavored like dessert or candy). although many plain wheat-, oat- and corn-based cereals exist, many other varieties are highly sweetened, while some brands include freeze-dried fruit as a sweet element. the breakfast cereal industry has gross profit margins of 40–45%, 90% penetration in some markets, and has had steady and continued growth throughout its history.

Chia pudding

Chia seeds are the edible seeds of salvia hispanica, a flowering plant in the mint family (lamiaceae) native to central and southern mexico, or of the related salvia columbariae of the southwestern united states and mexico. chia seeds are oval and gray with black and white spots, having a diameter around 2 millimetres (0.08 in). the seeds are hygroscopic, absorbing up to 12 times their weight in liquid when soaked and developing a mucilaginous coating that gives chia-based foods and beverages a distinctive gel texture. there is evidence that the crop was widely cultivated by the aztecs in pre-columbian times and was a staple food for mesoamerican cultures. chia seeds are cultivated on a small scale in their ancestral homeland of central mexico and guatemala and commercially throughout central and south america.

Chocolate

Chocolate is a food product made from roasted and ground cacao seed kernels, that is available as a liquid, solid or paste, on its own or as a flavoring agent in other foods. cacao has been consumed in some form since at least the olmec civilization (19th-11th century bce), and the majority of mesoamerican people ─ including the maya and aztecs ─ made chocolate beverages.the seeds of the cacao tree have an intense bitter taste and must be fermented to develop the flavor. after fermentation, the seeds are dried, cleaned, and roasted. the shell is removed to produce cocoa nibs, which are then ground to cocoa mass, unadulterated chocolate in rough form. once the cocoa mass is liquefied by heating, it is called chocolate liquor. the liquor may also be cooled and processed into its two components: cocoa solids and cocoa butter. baking chocolate, also called bitter chocolate, contains cocoa solids and cocoa butter in varying proportions, without any added sugar. powdered baking cocoa, which contains more fiber than cocoa butter, can be processed with alkali to produce dutch cocoa. much of the chocolate consumed today is in the form of sweet chocolate, a combination of cocoa solids, cocoa butter or added vegetable oils, and sugar. milk chocolate is sweet chocolate that additionally contains milk powder or condensed milk. white chocolate contains cocoa butter, sugar, and milk, but no cocoa solids. chocolate is one of the most popular food types and flavors in the world, and many foodstuffs involving chocolate exist, particularly desserts, including cakes, pudding, mousse, chocolate brownies, and chocolate chip cookies. many candies are filled with or coated with sweetened chocolate. chocolate bars, either made of solid chocolate or other ingredients coated in chocolate, are eaten as snacks. gifts of chocolate molded into different shapes (such as eggs, hearts, coins) are traditional on certain western holidays, including christmas, easter, valentine's day, and hanukkah. chocolate is also used in cold and hot beverages, such as chocolate milk and hot chocolate, and in some alcoholic drinks, such as creme de cacao. although cocoa originated in the americas, west african countries, particularly côte d'ivoire and ghana, are the leading producers of cocoa in the 21st century, accounting for some 60% of the world cocoa supply. with some two million children involved in the farming of cocoa in west africa, child slavery and trafficking associated with the cocoa trade remain major concerns. a 2018 report argued that international attempts to improve conditions for children were doomed to failure because of persistent poverty, absence of schools, increasing world cocoa demand, more intensive farming of cocoa, and continued exploitation of child labor.
