What kinds of foods are American?

Answer 1

20 DISHES TO EAT IN THE UNITED STATES

A few days ago we told you that, although you may not believe it, you can eat healthy in the United States , be careful, you can also eat too badly. But that sure you already knew. The offers to put on a few pounds are always there, in front of your eyes, and resisting the temptation is an (almost) impossible mission.

If you don't want to spend your trip between a hot dog cart and some hamburgers that drip sauce all over the place, we propose 20 dishes to eat in the United States to get the most out of American cuisine, we never thought we would write this sentence! you're not going to get rid of hot dogs and hamburgers ... And why should you?

Burger

Rare is the American restaurant that does not offer hamburgers on its menu: they are usually eaten both in crappy beach bars and in luxury restaurants, and the hamburger is, without a doubt, the most characteristic dish in the United States.

If you are a gourmet, do not discard the idea of ​​greasy fast food at all: in some, such as Five Guys or In 'n out, you can eat a great burger (and cheap!)

Jambalaya

It is a Cajun dish, typical of New Orleans, a city that knows a lot about gastronomy and fusion cuisine. It is basically rice with chicken, prawns, sausages, and a few spices. It has a spicy touch, so if you don't like the spicy roll ... well, almost ask for something else.

In the past it was a "poor" dish since it was prepared with the remains of previous meals. Today it is one of the most famous in the state of Louisiana.

Reuben Sandwich

The ingredients for this sandwich are simple: corned beef (similar to pastrami), Swiss cheese, sauerkraut, and Russian sauce (finely chopped mayonnaise, ketchup, spices, bell pepper, radish, and chives).

Sloppy joe

Another light-light dish, the Sloppy Joe is a sandwich filled with minced meat, onion, bell pepper, tomato, garlic, vinegar, brown sugar and paprika (among others). Warning: you are going to smear up to your ears but anyway, take it away! I ate it!

Chicken and waffle

We know what you're thinking, but don't judge us. The waffle fried chicken sounds very strange but we assure you that it is a good pass ... especially if you add a good splash of maple syrup. Hmm, we can't wait to eat it again!

It is a 100% southern recipe although you will have no problem finding it in major cities throughout the United States.

Clam chowder

We discovered this dish in Boston (it is typical of New England) and we tried it again in San Francisco and it is WOW. The clam chowder is a soup made with potatoes, clams, onion and celery. Creamy, flavorful and delicious. The best thing is that in many places they serve it inside a bread that is delicious (probably the only good bread in the United States).

Buffalo wings

Buffalo chicken wings are one of the most famous dishes in America (and they have crossed a few borders). Preparing them is also quite easy: you just have to season the wings with a hot sauce, pepper, white vinegar and butter. If you add a pinch of bbq sauce, even better 🙂

Lobster Roll

It is a sandwich on a doggie-like bread stuffed with lobster meat garnished with mayonnaise, lemon, salt and pepper. It is a light dish, perfect for summer days. It is found mainly on the East Coast (New England and New York mainly) although there are several chains, such as Luke's Lobster that have stores spread over several sites.

Pan de maiz

Cornbread is a bun made with corn flour, the truth is that it is very rich and is a perfect companion for barbecues or meat-based meals. Anyway, eaten alone it is very nice too, eh. Apparently the Native Americans were the first to prepare it and look, to this day J

Mac and cheese

We could define them as macaroni and cheese, but hey, you have to make a point: there are two types, the homemade, which is prepared with real cheese (gouda and cheddar normally) and the canister, where the cheese is simply an orange powder phosphorito (the same as risketos) that, with milk and butter, becomes a somewhat rare cream.

It is also the dish for which I was almost withdrawn from Italian citizenship XD when, in an Instagram Stories I said that we liked it.

Stuffed Turkey

We do not live Thanksgiving, nor did we try the stuffed turkey, but this list could not miss one of the most typical dishes of the United States. But ... what is it filled with? The traditional recipe says that you can not miss onion, celery, bread (better if it is cornbread), aromatic herbs, chicken broth, margarine, salt and pepper.

Or you can do like Ted:
