Traditional Food

Food, like hospitality, is an important component of Pakistani culture. Pakistani cuisine is well-known for its creative use of herbs and spices. Every traditional dish is a unique mixture whose recipe has been passed down through generations to ensure the best flavor. Each food, whether lentils, chicken roast, or lamb, must be seasoned and cooked to perfection, so that when the dish is finished, it is a delight to eat every single bite. The country is also known for its distinctive sweets known as 'Mithai,' which are sweet delicacies created with traditional recipes and topped with a variety of nuts.

Agriculture is well-known in Pakistan. In contrast to the rest of the globe, the fruit is seasonal, so you can only eat what's in season, and it's quite fresh. Food is cooked in apricot oil in Hunza, the land of apricots; if you visit, make sure to try the pancakes at Cafe De Hunza. Along with employing local ingredients, Pakistani recipes incorporate techniques and flavors from other influences. Northern food is less spicy and relies on Afghanistan (for example, Kabuli pulao), Lahori cuisine is more robust with traditional Punjabi features (rich gravies produced from dairy and butter), and Kashmir has its unique cooking style.
