Regarding yesterday's question on your country's most typical foods, I'm a little overwhelmed by all the replies! Thanks to everyone! I tried to collate your suggestions on this page

https://sternaparadisaea.net/europe-on-a-plate/

Europe has 49 countries + I'm still missing suggestions for 23 of them, would love to hear your favourite foods from Estonians, Bulgarians, Montenegrans, Azeris, Armenians, Moldovans etc, etc.

Do you know @ThunderHoney? She's eating her way through dishes from all countries in the world, and the two of you seem to have things to talk about. Bon appetit.

@Ruth_Mottram not sure what a classic vegetarian Belgian dish might be - the national dish is Moules Frites (mussels and fries)

@http_error_418 I remember having a delicious endive in a white (Bechamel?) sauce in Brussels once. Not sure what it was called but it was delicious - any idea what I'm describing? (It may have had ham with it originally?)

@Ruth_Mottram I can ask my Flemish friend but she has just suggested "stoofvlees", traditionally a Carbonnade a la flammande meat stew, but she makes it with a meat substitute https://www.devegetarischeslager.nl/p/kipstuckjes.html/08718692788978

@Ruth_Mottram well had you included Scotland I would have suggested soup as our typical national dish. We are apparently the largest consumers of soup in Europe and it is excellent quality.

@peterbrown soup and not haggis? Though saying that, Cullen Skink would definitely be my (non-veggie) choice for Scotland!

@Ruth_Mottram yup, definitely soup not haggis.
The only reason haggis got on the billing was because people who came here from England hadn’t heard of it.
