Lithuanian cuisine : ウィキペディア英語版 | Lithuanian cuisine
Lithuanian cuisine features products suited to the cool and moist northern climate of Lithuania: barley, potatoes, rye, beets, greens, berries, and mushrooms are locally grown, and dairy products are one of its specialties. Since it shares its climate and agricultural practices with Northern Europe, Lithuanian cuisine has much in common with its Baltic neighbors and, in general, northern countries. It also shares some traditions with Polish and Ukrainian that date back to the grand duchy times. Also, Hungarian, German, and Georgian cuisines as well as Ashkenazi cuisine. Nevertheless, it has its own distinguishing features, which were formed by a variety of influences during the country's long, difficult and interesting history. German traditions have had a big influence on Lithuanian cuisine, introducing pork and potato dishes, such as potato pudding (''kugelis'' or kugel) and intestines stuffed with mashed potato (''vėdarai''), as well as the baroque tree cake known as ''Šakotis''. Because of their common heritage, Lithuanians, Poles, and Ashkenazi Jews also share some dishes and beverages. Thus there are similar Lithuanian, Lithuanian Jewish, and Polish versions of dumplings (''koldūnai'', kreplach or pierogi), doughnuts ''spurgos'' or (pączki ), and ''blynai'' crepes (blintzes). The most exotic of all the influences is Eastern (Karaite) cuisine, and the dishes ''kibinai'' and ''čeburekai'' are popular in Lithuania. Torte Napoleon was introduced during Napoleon's passage through Lithuania in the 19th century. Despite the apparent richness of the cuisine, Lithuania has a very low prevalence of obesity.〔Lissau, I., et al., (Body mass index and overweight in adolescents in 13 European countries, Israel, and the United States ) (Abstract), ''Archives of pediatrics & adolescent medicine'', 2004 January; 158(1):27-33.〕 ==Staples==
