Unusual Foods According to the Alphabet!

Along a similar line as the “What are you thinking??” post that @Tinywhisper11 made <3

Post foods according to the alphabet! But not just the typical “apple, bacon, chips” kinda foods. Go BIGGER. When I say unusual, I don’t mean weird or anything. I mean… Foods most people don’t think of, haven’t tried, are from different countries than your own, etc.

Googling, etc., is absolutely allowed!

If possible, please tell us about the food. What is it? How is it cooked? Have you tried it? Where is it from?

I’ll start us off with A:

Aguachile

This is a Mexican dish made with shrimp, raw fish fillet, chiltipin peppers, lime juice, salt, slices of cucumber, and slices of red onion.

Now I’m hungry. ;)

@jesusredeemedme2425 French Lentils With Garlic and Thyme. But why does it look so goooood, i want to try it now

vwwspt1487394060_1757374627.jpg

Ingredients:
- 3 tablespoons of olive oil
- 1 onion
- 2 cloves of garlic
- 1 carrot
- 2 1/4 cups of french lentils
- 1 teaspoon of thyme
- 3 bay leaves
- 1 tablespoon of salt
- 2 sticks of cellery

Instructions:
Place a large saucepan over medium heat and add oil.
When hot, add chopped vegetables and sauté until softened, 5 to 10 minutes.
Add 6 cups water, lentils, thyme, bay leaves and salt.
Bring to a boil, then reduce to a fast simmer.
Simmer lentils until they are tender and have absorbed most of the water, 20 to 25 minutes.
If necessary, drain any excess water after lentils have cooked.
Serve immediately, or allow them to cool and reheat later.
For a fuller taste, use some chicken stock and reduce the water by the same amount.
