Lithuania
Potato-rich farm cuisine famous for cepelinai and pink cold beet soup, with rye and mushrooms. That is the short version of what Lithuania cooks. Look for Cepelinai (zeppelin-shaped potato dumplings stuffed with meat, bacon-cream sauce; national dish), Šaltibarščiai (shocking-pink cold beet-kefir soup with hot potatoes) and Kugelis (dense baked potato pudding with bacon, sour cream). Potato dumplings named after the zeppelin airships that flew over Lithuania in the early twentieth century, which their shape resembles.
