That is fucking vile.
I just made some fucking french onion soup, it was great. How about you make some, you should have pretty much everything you need;
4 Medium onions, sliced julienne style in moderately sized chunks.
2 tablespoons of butter and 2 of olive oil.
700 ml of Beef, chicken or vegetable stock, or both mixed together. You can use stock cubes if it's easier.
A glass or so of dry white wine, or red who gives a shit.
Two cloves of garlic.
Two bay leaves.
Some thyme.
Some salt, sugar and pepper.
A baguette.
Some gruyere or mozzerella.
Worcestershire sauce.
1. Chop onions, heat up butter and oil, put the onions in.
2. Add some sugar, salt and pepper, salt should be added to taste.
3. Are they brown yet? (If yes:) Good, pop wine in to deglaze the pan, when the wine and onions are at the same temperature add the stock. (If no:) Wait until brown, then answer yes to the inital question.
4. Add some minced garlic, worcester sauce, the bay leaf and some thyme.
Let it sit for about 40 minutes on a simmer.
Cut your baguette into about 3 thin slices for each bowl, brush with oil, grill until brown on both sides, then rub with garlic.
Have 40 minutes passed yet? (If yes:)Great, serve in a heat proof bowl, put your croutons on top with some gruyere and grill until the cheese is brown. (If no:)Wait the applicable amount of time.
Eat, how was it? (If good:) I know that already, you don't need to tell me (If no:) You have failed to correctly follow my instructions.
I made snickerdoodles last weekend. :)

This food of the gods will cure any ilnesses. Just add a little pepper and your good to go. It's made by leaving chicken i water for a few hours (with a little heat) and if a little tomato powder is added it can be used to make the tomato soup you ever eat. It's nearly always eat with spaghetti/noodles. If you don't want to use the chicken method you can just crumble a chicken stock cube.

Technically the aern't dumling but i've had to use it for lack of a better term. These are mostly savoury and are stuffed with anything from cabbage ,to cheese and potato (called pirogi ruskie) ,to meat. Served with fried onions and bacon this is a firm favorite among poles. Not that pierogi ia alreasy plural so don't go asking for "Pierogi's" or you'll look a tit.

Gołąbki are a form of cabbage roll. They are a traditional Polish dish consisting of boiled cabbage leaves stuffed with ground pork or beef, chopped onions and rice or barley; most often baked and refried in a spicy tomato sauce. The name directly translate to "Pidgeon" don't worry, it has nothing to do with the ingresients but rather the shape of the roll.

There are so many trpes of polish sasuage it's untrue. So let's talk about the most popular.Kabanos , also known as Kabana in Australia is an Eastern European sausage made from pork. They are most commonly dry to very dry in texture and smoky in flavor. Typically they are quite long - 30-60 cm (12-24 in) but very thin, with a diameter of just over 1 centimetre (0.39 in), giving them a very characteristic appearance.There's even a song about Tenatous D about it! Even if it is for the wrong reasons.

Man, I love pierogi, my grandparents (ukrainian and polish) used to make them every now and then, but just recently Tesco started selling them, pre made (you still have to boil them), fucking beautiful. We get them like every week, and eat them with sour cream. Never seen them with bacon before though.
Also pro-tip: fry them in butter after boiling, they're so much better fried.
Thread delivers.

Great work! I'm adding you to the OP and you will be credited.
I'll be honest I swear I haven't even seen most of the foods listed in the OP. They all seem pretty foreign to me, and the only thing I've ever eaten that I would consider foreign would be a Chinese Yum Cha. Shit's pretty good.
Where's the sausage in bread? I've had that for dinner for the last week.
I can't belive it! You left "mämmi" out of finnish foods, the most traditional finnish easter meal. But for the love of god don't do it your self or it looks like shit literally, buy it from your local store (whitch will most likely never have it).
I've had sushi before, but that's it.
Someone should make a restaurant chain specializing in foreign foods.
One of you Britons should send me some of your chocolate that you boast about so often.
Filipino Food:
Adobo
[img]http://bp3.blogger.com/_KC0IeKPFNMo/RrDcKVbELNI/AAAAAAAAAK4/ragjh4F7aPY/s400/P1000110a.jpg[/img]
pork or chicken, or a combination of both, is slowly cooked in soy sauce, vinegar, crushed garlic, bay leaf, and black peppercorns.
Sinigang
[img]http://www.filipino-food-lovers.com/site-images/pork_sinigang/pork_sinigang5.jpg[/img]
Sinigang (e.g., fish, pork, shrimp, or beef) is stewed with tamarind, green pepper, tomato, and onion. Other vegetables cooked in sinigang include okra, taro corms (gabi), labanos, kangkong, sitaw and eggplant. Another variety is prepared with guava and is less sour than those with tamarind. Raw mango, calamansi and bilimbi can also be used. However, vinegar is not used for making sinigang sour, soups made with vinegar are called paksiw.
Pea soup:

My dream is to travel the world and to taste and learn how to cook various different types of food like the ones talked about, recording different recipes in a notebook when I can.
Would be great.
DO CUBAN FOOD,

Polish Food:
Pierogi:
Pierogi are a dish of Polish origin, consisting of boiled dumplings of unleavened dough stuffed with varying ingredients. They are usually semicircular, but are square in some cuisines.
[img]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/c/cd/Ruskie.jpg[/img]
Bigos:
A savory stew of cabbage and meat, there is no standard recipe, as recipes vary considerably from region to region and from family to family. Typical ingredients include fresh and fermented white cabbage (sauerkraut, kapusta kiszona in Polish), various cuts of meat and sausages, often whole or puréed tomatoes, honey and mushrooms. The meats may include pork (often smoked), ham, bacon, beef, veal, sausage, and, as bigos is considered a hunters' stew, venison or other game; leftover cuts find their way into the pot as well. It may be seasoned with pepper, caraway, juniper berries, bay leaf, marjoram, pimento, dried or smoked plums and other ingredients.
Bigos is usually eaten with rye bread and potatoes.

kotlet schabowy - a breaded pork chop, similar to the Austrian Wiener Schnitzel but usually thicker, served with boiled potatos and cabbage stew
[img]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/4/40/Wiener_Schnitzel.jpg[/img]
Kaszanka is a traditional blood sausage in Polish cuisine, called krupniok in Silesia. It is made of a mixture of pig's blood and buckwheat kasza stuffed in a pig intestine.
Kaszanka may be eaten raw, but traditionally it is either grilled or fried with some onions and then served with potato and sauerkraut.
[img]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/c/c3/Krupnioki...jpg[/img]
pączek
A pączek is a deep-fried piece of dough shaped into a flattened sphere and filled with confiture or other sweet filling. Pączki are usually covered with powdered sugar, icing or bits of dried orange zest.
pączki are made from especially rich dough containing eggs, fats, sugar and sometimes milk. They feature a variety of fruit and creme fillings and can be glazed, or covered with granulated or powdered sugar. Prunes and rose-petal jam are traditional fillings, but many others are used as well, including lemon, strawberry, Bavarian cream, blueberry, custard, raspberry and apple.

Sernik

Borscht
The Polish borscht (barszcz) recipe includes red beetroot, onions, garlic, and other vegetables such as carrots and celery or parsnip. The ingredients are cooked for some time together to produce kind of clear broth (when strained) served as boullion in cups or in other ways. Some recipes
include bacon as well, which gives the soup its distinctive, "smoky" taste.
[img]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/3/38/Russian_borscht_with_beef_and_sour_cream.jpg[/img]
Czernina
Czernina is a Polish soup made of duck blood and clear poultry broth. In English it is referred to as Duck Blood Soup.
Generally the sweet and sour taste of the soup comes from the addition of sugar and vinegar.
[img]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/5/5d/Czernina.zupa.jpg[/img]
Kompot
Kompot is a traditional drink in Eastern European countries, especially in Poland and in Bosnia (where it has been a tradition since Ottoman times). It is a light refreshing drink most often made of dried fruit (raisins, prunes, apricots, etc.) boiled in water with sugar and left to cool and infuse.
