I'm doing it for you, white man's burden and all. Good night.
What pisses me off today

Thats true but not my point, Asia has a shit load of disposable income now right across the continent, cities like Tokyo, Shanghai, Bangalore and Seoul are massive cosmopolitan metropolises who's range of cuisine rivals Australia's and im sure the US and Canada's. You should visit some time, my last boss told me that South Korea is all rice paddies lol no dude no...
But I was talking about indigenous cuisine, lets get back to that, Asia's indigenous cuisine is MUCH more diverse than that of Europes (Now now as "no-hope") do you disagree? Ive got all night here no drinky no sleepy lol
As if, you'd try that in a heartbeat. Delicious Gulasch.
Also, isn't steak like your favourite dish? Where do you think that comes from?
What do you eat and drink weekly and where did everything originate? I don't know, but think about it.
Gulasch. And wrong. Don't hate on shit you never tried.
You can't be serious. Don't be a spice-racist.
A shame, hopefully you can eat a good one sometimes.
Sure a lot of spices came from the outside, but you just can't say what you said before, the saltmines as best example disagree with you quite a bit. And spices are not just small grains but a whole lot of other stuff.
In any case, if you wanna go like that, then delete every Asian dish that has chilli in it (which I assume is a lot), because those didn't originate in Asia.
Fine delete them but we can just use indigenous spices instead of chilies, chilies are better/easier to grow/cheaper but India had hot (masala) food since the Indus Valley so there is that. Lets leave salt out of this since the ocean covers 80% of the earth.
Besides salt and rosemary what else did you have?
I shoudl qualify my position by saying I eat a rare steak about 3 x per week and thats very european no doubt
Fiji Also has indigenous chili type fruit so there!
Northern and Middle Europe:
Allium ursinum
Artemisia vulgaris
Borago officinalis
Nasturtium officinale
Artemisia abrotanum
Myrica gale
Armoracia rusticana
Carum carvi
Trigonella caerulea
Allium schoenoprasum
Apium graveolens
Myrrhis odorata
Juniperus communis
Tuber melanosporum & Tuber magnatum
Angelica archangelica
Asarum europaeum
Sambucus nigra
Glechoma hederacea
Humulus lupulus
Alliaria petiolata
Populus alba
Sanguisorba minor
Tanacetum vulgare
Rumex acetosa
Ledum palustre (wild rosemary)
Sedum reflexum
Galium odoratum
Do I need to do Southern Europe too?
Fiji is not Asia.
You should ask that an expert, better if I tell you is what I use a lot or think is important, which has European origins except salt and and rosemary:
olives, sage, saffron (most expensive one or something, right?), thyme, wild garlic, caraway seed, chives, celeriac
That's unlikely, given how many different kind of peoples live in Asia.
1) Diversity =/= better
2) A lot of Asian food sucks. Just because it varies more across the continent doesn't make it good.
Away from geography, fucking horseflies piss me off.
One bit me the other day and now I have old woman cankles.
Bastard thing.

Bastard thing.
A lot of European food sucks too, there are still way more Asian dishes.
