Entry7:The best project i made?
The best project is when we recently learned how to duplicate it. We did it ourselves and it created several problems for us. It was difficult for us to fail, but we did it. Each of us shared our work. Thanks to this project, we got to know each other better.

Entry1: My First Impressions and Expectations of the University Classes?
 I really liked the question because I was waiting for a lot of things from the university. Of course, first of all I was very glad that I entered this university, but my first impressions were not what I was waiting for, but classmates were and became the joy of my life with them always fun and convenient. at the expense of teachers, I was pretty but certainly not from everyone, but still I would say that they are still the best of the best. university is good; we are bad students; we don’t learn because of this there are various misunderstandings. From the bottom of my heart, I would like to thank all the teachers who taught us good and sometimes bad. I hope God forbid such cool teachers and in the second year we will expect.

1. POPULAR ISRAELI FOOD

The list of 10 most popular Israeli dishes goes from famous Middle Eastern spreads like Hummus and Tahini, delicious Israeli Falafel, divine Israeli Shakshuka to popular Middle Eastern salad Tabbouleh and wholesome Israeli salad. The Israeli foods list ends with appetizing bread from Israel.

1.1 HUMMUS

HUMMUS is a Levantine spread usually prepared of mashed chickpeas. Sometimes hummus is made of other beans too. Mashed beans are blended with tahini, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and garlic. Where to find the best hummus in Israel is a never-ending debate in Israel.
If you want a perfect treat for your palate, I would suggest to try out hummus with pine nuts. After trying roasted pine nut hummus, there is a great possibility of becoming addicted to it. Thus, please beware of hummus with pine nuts in Israel!

1.2 FALAFEL

FALAFEL is a traditional Middle Eastern food, and inevitably traditional Israeli food. In Israeli cuisine, falafel takes a special place as it is considered to be an Israeli national dish. Falafel is also the ultimate street food in Israel you can find on every street corner in Israel. While falafel originates in Egypt, today is commonly eaten everywhere in the Middle East.

FALAFEL BALLS are made of deeply fried chickpeas, fava beans or both. Falafel is often wrapped in a pita sandwich or eaten alone as a part of the meze (the Middle Eastern palette of appetizers)

1.3 SHAKSHOUKA

To talk about typical Israeli food and not to mention Israeli Shakshouka is impossible. SHAKSHOUKA is an Israeli dish made of poached eggs in the sauce of tomatoes, chili peppers, and onions spiced with cumin or zaatar, paprika, cayenne pepper, and coriander. Shakshouka is one of the most Israeli loved dishes of Israeli cuisine and for a good reason. Unambiguously, Shakshouka is divine. Israelites usually eat Shakshouka for their breakfast. It was introduced in Israel by Jewish immigrants from North Africa, more precisely from Tunisia.
The word Shakshouka comes out of the Arabic word Shakka, meaning ‘to stick together‘. After tasting Shakshouka you find out how good poached eggs, tomatoes, chilies, paprika, onions, cumin, pepper, and coriander stick together. And as a result, you stick to Shakshouka for the rest of your life!

1.4 TAHINI

TAHINI is a creamy and savory paste made of sesame seeds usually found in hummus, baba ganoush spread (an eggplant dip), falafel sandwich or as a salad dressing. Authentic Israeli tahini is made with sesame paste, lemon, olive oil, and garlic.
Let me point out here that tahini is an ancient food tracking down sesames seeds cultivated in India 5.000 BC. If you want to find out why people have been adoring sesame seeds for the past 7.000 years, you should try tahini in Israel.

1.5 SABICH WITH AMBA

SABICH, or SABIH, is a popular Israeli sandwich. Basically, Sabich is a pita bread filled with fried eggplant and hard-boiled eggs, tahini sauce, hummus, Israeli salad, and amba (a piquant mango dressing). Sabich was brought to Israel by Iraqi Jews. Traditionally, it was eaten on Shabbath.
Sabich with amba was the first famous Israeli food I have tried in Tel Aviv on my arrival to Israel and I was literally screaming: ‘What’s this?! This is soooo good!! What’s this?! What am I eating? This is so perfect!’

In Israel, all coffee addicts, like me, can find their pleasure in sipping Arabic coffee prepared with cardamom, saffron, and rose water.

My sweet morning sin in Israel was treating myself with Arabic coffee accompanied with some toothsome dates cakes and anise cakes.

SAHLAB or SACHLAV (or Salep) is a popular creamy Middle Eastern beverage made of hot milk and a pudding powder from the orchid plant. Most commonly is topped with cinnamon and pistachios. Salep should be drunk while it is warm. Warmness and sweetness are what you get when drinking Sahlab!

Indonesian cuisine

Indonesian cuisine is influenced by Chinese cooking

Indonesian food carries a lot of influence in its own right, but Chinese immigrants contributed a great deal in making Indonesian cuisine what it is today. As Chinese immigrants settled in Indonesia, every wave of arrival saw its traditions and recipes integrate with local culture. Even the famed nasi goreng was adopted from a Chinese tradition of frying leftover rice in the morning. A lot of Chinese-origin dishes in Indonesia have been assimilated so deeply that many people don’t even realise their roots. This includes popular street food dishes like siomay, bakso meatballs, and bakmi.

Indonesia and halal food

Indonesia is home to the largest Muslim population in the world, a reality that extends to the realms of food. Since the arrival of Islam in the archipelago, many traditional recipes have been modified to comply with the principles of halal, most evidently by substituting pork with other meat. Nowadays, pork dishes are rather hard to come by – except in non-Muslim regions and Chinatowns.

Everything tastes better with sambal and krupuk

There are dozens of sambal (spicy condiment) recipes known in Indonesia. If the French pair their meals with wine, you’ll learn that dishes in Indonesia go with a certain sambal to make it complete. The same goes with krupuk or crackers. Sambal and krupuk may come with the dish you order or provided as a condiment on the restaurant table. Indonesians can be content with really simple food as long as there is sambal and krupuk to accompany it.

Some popular sambal recipes include the Balinese sambal matah with its fresh chilli, lemongrass, and lime; sambal terasi with the local favourite shrimp paste; and sambal kacang, which uses peanuts and 

Indonesians love their spices

Indonesia is home to the Moluccas archipelago, known as the fabled ‘Spice Islands’ sought out by 16th century European nations. The country is credited with introducing the world to a tapestry of new flavours and sensations. Indonesia remains one of the world’s top producers of spices, giving us nutmeg, clove, galangal, pandan leaves, and others which are incorporated into many traditional recipes. These native spices soon mix with other herbs introduced from India and China, such as turmeric, lemongrass and scallions. An authentic traditional recipe may list almost a dozen herb and spice ingredients to make one dish, resulting in a remarkable and distinctive taste loved by many.

Eating is better together

Many Indonesian meals were originally created as communal dishes, served during traditional ceremonies, rituals, or gatherings. The Sundanese, for example, have a tradition called ngaliwet, which started by pooling money together to buy ingredients, followed by cooking together and then eating the dish as a group, as communal portions are laid on one big banana leaf. This sense of togetherness is still an important part of a local dining experience, no matter what meal you’re having.
