From 2008 - 2022, I set out to discover one recipe from each country in the world. Needless to say, internet resources increased dramatically during that time frame, and if I had time, I would love to go back and re-discover more recipes from each country. Maybe one day! Note: One recipe per country is inadequate to judge a country's cuisine properly. I also claim no credit or blame for the results of these recipes.
