Egyptian cuisines may not be available in every international restaurant in the world, but are highly estimated in Africa. The food items of Egypt are highly specialized and in the later times, the influence of the Muslim cooking is also evident in some cases. The contribution of Egyptian food is not just about tossing up delicious recipes. They gave to the world the first oven, which could be used at home. Moreover, the honey, which they made, was highly esteemed. It is not possible to categorize Egyptian food items as entirely spicy or otherwise. There is something to suit the palate of one and all.
Among the most sought after Egyptian recipes, there are Flava bean recipes such as Ful Mesdames and Ful Nabed, okra and mutton stew, Moloukhiya or Egyptian green soup and Umm Ali. The Egyptian cuisines make use of a number of vegetable items, herbs and spices but the food value is high without compromising with the taste factor. This apart, the Egyptians were also the first to make mayonnaise and pastas, which are still hot favorites the world over.
