Balık-Ekmek

Did you know that fish sandwiches are an incredibly popular street food in Istanbul? Fishermen in the Bosporus often sell their fresh-caught fish in sandwich form, grilling them and serving them in between two slices of bread with vegetables.

View this post on Instagram

Balık Ekmek (literally translates as “Fish Bread”) for dinner tonight, and Istanbul’s most popular street food, sold on boats off the Bosphorus. I promised you a fish recipe yesterday, but this here is less of a recipe, and more of an idea; I did, of course, make the bread today using my Cypriot bread recipe and just shaped the dough into small baguettes. I cheat by using peppered smoked mackerel fillets and heating them under the grill, but pan-frying fresh mackerel fillets is the official way to do it. Tomato, red, onion, parsley, summak salad with olive oil, lemon juice, salt and red wine vinegar, and here you have Istanbul’s truly satisfying, cosmopolitan answer to the fish finger sandwich (er, not quite). Absolutely beautiful. – – – #balıkekmek #smokedmackerel #fishsandwich #freshbread #turkishbread #turkishfood #mediterraneanfood #istanbul #turkishfood #turkishcuisine #cypriotfood #fishsupper #dinnerideas #fishrecipes #beautifulcuisines #familyfood #f52grams #foodstagram #london #londonfood #cook #healthyeating #thenewhealthy #feedfeed #foodwinewomen #onmyplate #kitchenstories #melizcooks #beautifulcuisines

]]> YouTube channel The Food Ranger recently published a video showing how Chinese chefs prepare their famous noodles. Trevor James reports from Lanzhou, China, the home of hand-pulled noodles. James and his crew are headed straight to a kitchen where they’re filming the noodle masters in action.

In the video below, you can see the men kneading and stretching the noodle dough until it becomes smooth and flexible, perfect for making fresh, thin noodles. The giant mountains of dough are turned into small bricks, which are then pulled until they are thin enough. The noodles go straight to the cauldron in front of which we see a big line of customers waiting for their portions.

The noodles are served with beef stock, vegetables, sauce, and some beef on the side. After having a meal there, James goes to another noodle place where he shows us another typical style of noodles prepared with lamb stock. Watch the video below to see everything.

]]> Describing what balut is can be a bit difficult because we want to make it appetizing. Balut is a traditional dish in many Asian countries and a staple of their street food, but it may seem odd to those who’ve never tried something similar. What is exactly balut? It’s a partially developed duck (or other bird) embryo that was incubated for two to three weeks before cooking.

✨Balut✨ We who are about to die[t], balut you 🐣🙋🏻‍♀️ #LimrEats »fertilized duck egg; a delicacy from the Philippines . . This has been on my bucket list for the longest time and I'm so glad I tried it. First, you boil them like you boil eggs. When they're done, you crack the shell a bit and drink the broth which tastes like a fatty chicken broth and I'd say that was my favorite part of the experience. The actual duck fetus is very soft, and tastes like bone marrow. Most people eat the yolk but not the whites because the white part is hard and rubbery. I bought 2 of these and ate both of them in one sitting because I liked it so much the first time. . . . #balut #filipinofood #eastcoastfoodies #nyceats #eqdailypic #queenseats #queensny #homecooked #buzzfeast #buzzfeedfood #travelchannel #fooddiary #foodbaby #foodbeast #foodblogger #foodie #foodagrammerz #eeeeeats #huffposttaste #gladiator #tryitordiet #tastethisnext #yougottaeatthis #eaterny #forkyeah #eatingnewyork #foodstagram #foodilysm #foodgasm

The name of the dish translates to “wrap” in Tagalog and Malay, but it’s nothing like your regular wraps. It’s more similar to a boiled egg, but on another level. Balut is considered a delicacy and some even believe it has aphrodisiac-like properties.

Even though the idea of eating a fertilized egg may seem strange if you’re not used to it, we encourage you to try it if you get the chance. After all, there’s a reason it’s so popular and celebrated in countries like Vietnam, the Philippines, Cambodia, and Thailand. If you get to one of these countries, it shouldn’t be hard to find balut in some street food carts.

One of the greatest countries in the world for street food lovers is Thailand. This Southeast Asian island nation serves up a wide variety of street foods that visitors to a city such as Bangkok find absolutely delicious.

Here are some Thai street foods that you absolutely must try if you visit.

Sai Ua

This pork sausage is commonly sold on the streets throughout Thailand, although it originated in the north of the country. It contains red curry paste and is slightly spicy.

Guay Teow

Thai food is famous for its noodles, and guay teow is a great dish that you can try to sample them. This pork noodle soup is perfect if you’re looking for a hearty snack.

Gai Tod

This list wouldn’t be complete without a dessert entry, which merits the inclusion of these delicious fried bananas. They’re the perfect ending to a street food feast.

In Mexico’s largest cities — such as Mexico City, Guadalajara, Oaxaca, and Puebla — visitors and locals alike enjoy food from street stands. Although it isn’t fancy, this is some of the country’s most beloved cuisine.

Here’s a look at some of the most popular street foods in Mexico.

Tacos

Did you know that tacos started out as a street food? Although now they’re well-known due to Mexican restaurants over the world, it’s still common to buy tacos on the street in Mexico.

Tlayudas

If you’ve ever heard of something called “Mexican pizza,” tlayudas are what inspired them. This food is most common in the city of Oaxaca and is made of fried dough and topped with mole sauce, meat, cheese, and veggies.

Tortas

Tortas are the Mexican equivalent to a sub sandwich, and are very common in street stands. Different regions have their own spins on the dish, which is a hearty mid-day snack for many.

Elotes

Do you love grilled corn as much as I do. This Grilled Street Corn on the Cob at Epcot's Flower and Garden Festival is one of the hits of the festival. This is served at the Trowell and Trellis both in world show case. This corn is so popular they sold over 2000 ears on the 1st day. This isnt the only tasty vegan/plant based dish at the Trowell and Trellis. They also serve a meatless meat ball and a pudding made of avacodo, pomegranate, matcha and cacao. Definitely given vegans a few more options at the Flower and Garden Festival this year. . .

Finally, elotes are a well-known street delicacy in Mexico. This consists of a cob of grilled corn which is then basted with mayonnaise, lime juice, and powdered chili. Yum.

]]> YouTube channel The Food Ranger recently published a video showing how Chinese chefs prepare their famous noodles. Trevor James reports from Lanzhou, China, the home of hand-pulled noodles. James and his crew are headed straight to a kitchen where they’re filming the noodle masters in action.

In the video below, you can see the men kneading and stretching the noodle dough until it becomes smooth and flexible, perfect for making fresh, thin noodles. The giant mountains of dough are turned into small bricks, which are then pulled until they are thin enough. The noodles go straight to the cauldron in front of which we see a big line of customers waiting for their portions.

The noodles are served with beef stock, vegetables, sauce, and some beef on the side. After having a meal there, James goes to another noodle place where he shows us another typical style of noodles prepared with lamb stock. Watch the video below to see everything.

]]> Describing what balut is can be a bit difficult because we want to make it appetizing. Balut is a traditional dish in many Asian countries and a staple of their street food, but it may seem odd to those who’ve never tried something similar. What is exactly balut? It’s a partially developed duck (or other bird) embryo that was incubated for two to three weeks before cooking.

✨Balut✨ We who are about to die[t], balut you 🐣🙋🏻‍♀️ #LimrEats »fertilized duck egg; a delicacy from the Philippines . . This has been on my bucket list for the longest time and I'm so glad I tried it. First, you boil them like you boil eggs. When they're done, you crack the shell a bit and drink the broth which tastes like a fatty chicken broth and I'd say that was my favorite part of the experience. The actual duck fetus is very soft, and tastes like bone marrow. Most people eat the yolk but not the whites because the white part is hard and rubbery. I bought 2 of these and ate both of them in one sitting because I liked it so much the first time. . . . #balut #filipinofood #eastcoastfoodies #nyceats #eqdailypic #queenseats #queensny #homecooked #buzzfeast #buzzfeedfood #travelchannel #fooddiary #foodbaby #foodbeast #foodblogger #foodie #foodagrammerz #eeeeeats #huffposttaste #gladiator #tryitordiet #tastethisnext #yougottaeatthis #eaterny #forkyeah #eatingnewyork #foodstagram #foodilysm #foodgasm

The name of the dish translates to “wrap” in Tagalog and Malay, but it’s nothing like your regular wraps. It’s more similar to a boiled egg, but on another level. Balut is considered a delicacy and some even believe it has aphrodisiac-like properties.

Even though the idea of eating a fertilized egg may seem strange if you’re not used to it, we encourage you to try it if you get the chance. After all, there’s a reason it’s so popular and celebrated in countries like Vietnam, the Philippines, Cambodia, and Thailand. If you get to one of these countries, it shouldn’t be hard to find balut in some street food carts.

Did you know that tacos started out as a street food? Although now they’re well-known due to Mexican restaurants over the world, it’s still common to buy tacos on the street in Mexico.

Tlayudas

If you’ve ever heard of something called “Mexican pizza,” tlayudas are what inspired them. This food is most common in the city of Oaxaca and is made of fried dough and topped with mole sauce, meat, cheese, and veggies.

Tortas

Tortas are the Mexican equivalent to a sub sandwich, and are very common in street stands. Different regions have their own spins on the dish, which is a hearty mid-day snack for many.

Elotes

Do you love grilled corn as much as I do. This Grilled Street Corn on the Cob at Epcot's Flower and Garden Festival is one of the hits of the festival. This is served at the Trowell and Trellis both in world show case. This corn is so popular they sold over 2000 ears on the 1st day. This isnt the only tasty vegan/plant based dish at the Trowell and Trellis. They also serve a meatless meat ball and a pudding made of avacodo, pomegranate, matcha and cacao. Definitely given vegans a few more options at the Flower and Garden Festival this year. . .

Finally, elotes are a well-known street delicacy in Mexico. This consists of a cob of grilled corn which is then basted with mayonnaise, lime juice, and powdered chili. Yum.

Try these street foods if you find yourself at a Mexican food stand or in Mexico!
