]]> If you like simple, straightforward, yummy food, you’ll love Dutch cuisine, which is traditionally quite rustic, focused on ingredients like vegetables, cheese, potatoes, and meat. If you’re curious to try it out for yourself, here are three dishes we recommend starting out with.

Poffertjes

Poffertjes are a traditional Dutch mini pancake. True to the Dutch style, they’re rather simply topped with a little butter and a light sprinkling of powdered sugar. And they’re super yummy and easy to eat with your hands due to their small size. They’re usually made in a specialized poffertjes pan, but you can also just make them on a normal griddle.

Kapsalon

The Netherlands’ answer to poutine, kapsalon is a popular Dutch fast food consisting of a layer of french fries topped with döner, melted slices of Gouda cheese, and iceberg lettuce. It’s just as yummy (and unhealthy) as it sounds.

Stamppot

The comfort food of the Netherlands, stamppot is basically just potatoes mashed with a leafy green vegetable like kale and topped with meat. Not only is it hearty, filling, and delicious, but it’s also actually a great way to sneak your veggies into your meal if you’re a picky eater.

]]> Meatballs are a food staple that is common in many diets. Foodies from different countries put their own spin on the dish, altering it to reflect local ingredients and difference in tastes.

You can find lots of unique meatball varieties throughout the world. Here are some of the neatest.

Swedish Meatballs (Sweden)

Swedish meatballs are known worldwide, thanks largely to furniture chain IKEA. They are made with ground beef and served with lingonberry jam and mashed potatoes. The perfect dish to combat a cold winter day.

Bitterballen (Netherlands)

The most popular Dutch version of meatballs are, believe it or not, actually fried! Bitterballen are very similar to regular meatballs, with the exception that they’re breaded and fried. They are a popular snack in the Netherlands.

Lion’s Head (China)

Lion’s head meatballs are popular in the Chinese city of Shanghai. They’re made with ground pork and water chestnuts. These give the meatballs a unique crunch and a distinctly Chinese touch.

Tsukune (Japan)

The Japanese chicken meatball is a popular snack and street food. Typically served on a wooden skewer, they’re coated with a sweet soy sauce and are generally prepared on a charcoal grill.
