After a long hiatus, the sub-par board-shattering phenomenon has returned:
Amazing Race: Veeky Forums Edition.
For those who weren't around for season 1, the rules are simple:
> go to randomlists.com/random-country > set number of countries to 1 > press the "refresh" button 5 times > you must now make a proper meal/dish from that nation's cuisine within a reasonable amount of time (within the week is preferred)
ADDITIONAL RULES > you may re-roll if you land on your own country, but do not have not > you may reroll if you land on a nation someone has already been assigned, but do not have to if you think you can outshine them > you may play multiple times
Of course, I myself will be participating (though I might not be able to deliver within my own "week rule"), and will tell you soon what I landed on.
>Goat water stew, perhaps the country's most well-known dish, mixes goat, breadfruit, green pawpaw (papaya), and dumplings (also known as "droppers") in a tomato-based stew. Another favorite dish is cook-up, or pelau, which combines chicken, pig tail, saltfish and vegetables with rice and pigeon peas.
poof
Wyatt Hernandez
That unironically sounds amazing.
Ethan Cooper
Fried breadfruit with some fresh garlic spread on it is GOAT.
Jordan Lopez
I only have a single ripe jackfruit and breadfruit is both hard to find and probably fucking expensivo Think I can pull it off or will this be an "homemade coconut/deconstructed pb&j" situation?
Eli Harris
Goddammit, fuck me. The 4th refresh was fucking Poland.
Jose Russell
Not really sure, never tried it with a jackfruit. It is from the same family thougj so theoretically it might work. Fry it like tostones
Sebastian Morales
noice
Robert Brooks
>rice okay
Josiah Cook
Since I got easy mode what should I make? I already cook quite a bit of French food
Blake Rodriguez
obviously the hardest thing you can think of and accompany it with a separate cook-along thread.
Christian Powell
Something like pic related? Choron sauce by itself is kind of complicated to make, I'll have to see about getting my hands on some sea bass though
OK, I got Congo I can do this >ngl would not have participated if i got a shitty country like Marshall Islands or some shit
Levi Foster
yeah, i rolled last round and got some shitty country that i can't even remember and instead of just pretending like it didn't happen and rolling again i just closed the thread and forgot it ever happened
I got brazilians all over my town like white on rice so manioc is dead easy to get, I just need to hunt up that palm butter sauce or whatever it is fortunately my neighbor is from Ghana so if i can catch him between the 3 fucking jobs he works I'll ask him where to get that shit
Lucas Stewart
OP delivered on Zambia. How bad could it have been?
Mason Murphy
Then a three course menu it shall be!
Soup is done and perfected... Main course will either be tested tomorrow or later tonight. Probably tomorrow, I've been up for 18 hours and need sleep. Not very confident on the dessert because I don't really bake, but hey, this seems like a hell of an opportunity to learn.
Luxembourg!
Jackson Hughes

Joseph Lee
Just realized they have one dish that's originally theirs... fml "Slovenian spaghetti it is"
Ayden Thomas
Since this is an actual somewhat iconic cuisine, what should I make? When I can get around to it, I'll do a separate cook-along thread.
Michael Sanchez
wat No idea. Internet says it's a nice place if you want a break when transporting drugs to the western hemisphere by sea.
Jaxson Edwards

Brandon James
I got pic related.
If you are not in Turkey and try to replicate my recipe, whatever it may end up being, please make sure to leave out the Cyfluthrin. It is meant only for roaches.
Benjamin Martinez
WTF? Cuban food is much much closer to Spanish than Mexican. Seriously, dude, just make vaca frita or paella.
Eli Adams
What's that?
Brayden Mitchell
Insecticide.
Jace Gray

Easton Brooks

Omitting dessert from this because I'm moving to another house and won't have any more free time until a couple of weeks from now and this will probably be over by then. Posting processes tomorrow in a new thread, will link to this one.

I should make it clear that once you are done, you post a picture in this thread to show that you delivered.
Jonathan Baker
Thing one...
Thomas Perry
...and Thing two.
Jordan Flores
I used to work with a Columbian chef, might hit him up for some recipe inspo
Michael Ward
that's not true my boss' wife is slovenian. He said the food is heavy and hearty; like winter food all year round. Specifically I can only recall mention of sauerkraut but I'm sure there's more
Hunter Martin
I got Lebanon. I will report back in a couple of days with my effort. Should be a fun one to do.
Jace Taylor
so....rice with nothing?
Wyatt Hall
>Bhutan
I'll give it a shot, senpai.
John Phillips
I'll forgive you if you just go with normal Korea
Side note, what should I make for Cambodia? I'm unironically considering "rat on a stick" because I live in a breadbasket with big ass ones. That said, that's only half a plate. What else?
Blake Kelly
I've, uh, never had rat before senpai, but if it's bitter you might serve it with a native veggie for sweetness. In contrast, if it's succulent/sweet you could do a rice side.
Bentley Perry
"Macanese cuisine is unique to Macau, and consists of a blend of southern Chinese and Portuguese cuisines, with significant influences from Southeast Asia and the Lusophone world. Many unique dishes resulted from the spice blends that the wives of Portuguese sailors used in an attempt to replicate European dishes.
Fucking stoked to try this.
Evan Hughes
Good call. It should also be noted that this isn't me trying to be dumb and make the whole thing a joke- "rat on a stick" is legit Cambodian commoner food and is apparently pretty good.
Aaron Anderson
Rice with plutonium, seasoned with civilian tears and topped with some VX gas.
You'll be fine
Charles Russell
One sad grain of rice, be grateful for the grand emperors gift
Henry Clark
Guessing a lot of rice, fish and coconuts.
Oliver Garcia
