The gastronomic

The gastronomic culture is one of the most striking aspects that tourists observe on their trips to
Egypt. The identity of typical Egyptian food has also been strongly influenced by African customs.

-Ful medames is considered the national dish of Egypt. It is not surprising that it is consumed
during fasting periods, since it is a dish that has a great protein power that leaves the feeling of
fullness. This is a dish that, in addition to being very rich, is very complete and simple. Within
Egyptian gastronomy itself, it is very typical to accompany this dish with a variety of pita bread
called shami. Its main base is dried beans.

-Kushari is a very Egyptian dish. In an unusual combination, kushari blends lentils, short pasta,
noodles and rice into a single dish, topped with a tomato sauce that uses a blend of Middle
Eastern spices, a tangy sauce, a hot sauce, fried chickpeas and onions, a little strange, but yummy.
As the kushari man spoons ingredients into the dish, he bangs the metal spoon against the rims of
the pots, creating a kushari symphony heard nowhere else.

-The baba ganoush is precisely a dish that, in addition to being delicious, has one or another
unique power. It is known that the mixture of various spices. That is why this dish is so peculiar in
the typical food of Egypt. It is very similar to hummus because of the use of tahini. Baba ganoush is
also a vegetable paste used as an appetizer. The traditional ingredients are roasted eggplant,
garlic, tahini, lemon and pomegranate
.

-The fatteh is a classic dish of typical Egyptian food. It usually consists of pieces of bread that are
toasted or fried, either dry or fresh, and then covered with other ingredients. The name is derived
from the Arabic word fatteh meaning "crushed crumbs". In the fatte there are no rules, what's
more, each home makes its fatteh differently, each one with its own unique touch depending on
their personal preferences.

-Fattoush or Fatush (‫ )فتوش‬is an Arab salad of Lebanese origin, which was transferred to

content. This rich appetizer is made mainly of vegetables, toasted bread and a mixture of spices
