Tom yum or tom yam  is a Lao and Thai clear, spicy and sour soup. Tom yum is widely served in neighbouring countries such as  singapore and has been popularised around the world.
Literally, the words "tom yum" are derived from two thai words: "tom" and "yam". "Tom" refers to boiling process, while "yam" refers to a kind of Lao and Thai spicy and sour salad. Thus, "tom yum" is a Lao and Thai hot and sour soup. Indeed, tom yum is characterised by its distinct hot and sour flavours, with fragrant herbs generously used in the broth. The basic broth is made of stock and fresh ingredients such as lemongrass, kaffir lime leaves galangal, Lime juice,fish sauce, and crushed chili pepers.
In neighbouring countries like Malaysia and Singapore, the name tom yum is used widely for various spicy soups which can differ greatly from true Lao and Thai tom yum soup. As a result, people are often confused by the disparities.
Commercial tom yum paste is made by crushing all the herb ingredients and stir frying in oil. Seasoning and other preservative ingredients are then added. The paste is bottled or packaged and sold around the world. Tom yum flavoured with the paste may have different characteristics from that made with fresh herb ingredients. The soup often includes meats such as chicken, beef, pork, or shrimp.

Sushi ,Japan

The original type of sushi, known today as narezushi (馴れ寿司, 熟寿司, fermented sushi), was first developed in Southeast Asia and spread to south China before introduced to japan sometime around the 8th century.Fish was salted and wrapped in fermented rice, a traditional lacto-fermented rice dish. Narezushi was made of this gutted fish stored in fermented rice for months at a time for preservation. The fermentation of the rice prevented the fish from spoiling.3 The fermented rice was discarded and fish was the only part consumed. This early type of sushi became an important source of protein for the Japanese.
The Japanese preferred to eat fish with rice, known as namanare or namanari (生成, なまなれ, なまなり, semi-fermented). During the muromachi  period namanare was the most popular type of sushi. Namanare was partly raw fish wrapped in rice, consumed fresh, before it changed flavor. This new way of consuming fish was no longer a form of preservation but rather a new dish in Japanese cuisine.
During theedo period a third type of sushi was introduced, haya-zushi (早寿司, 早ずし, fast sushi). Haya-zushi was assembled so that both rice and fish could be consumed at the same time, and the dish became unique to japanese culture. It was the first time that rice was not being used for fermentation. Rice was now mixed with vinegar, with fish, vegetables and dried food stuff added. This type of sushi is still very popular today. Each region utilizes local flavors to produce a variety of sushi that has been passed down for many generations.

Rendang from indonesian

1top delicous food in the world

In 2011 CNN International viewers voted Beef Rendang the Top among “The World’s 50 Most Delicious Foods”
A culinary presentation unique to the Minangkabau ethnic group of West Sumatera, RENDANG is a spicy Indonesian beef dish originally prepared for special festive occasions. Today, however, its popularity has spread across the country and can easily be found in any Padang Restaurant all throughout Indonesia.
Rendang has also become a  favorite dish in neighbouring Malaysia and Singapore, Brunei, the Southern Philippines, Southern Thailand, and even as far as Australia, Europe and the United States. 
Although some consider Rendang to be a curry, and others a stew, real, authentic Rendang is nothing like either of the above.  If you have not yet had the pleasure, the complex flavours of Rendang could only be described as a tender, savoury, dry beef stew, layered in the rich spices of lemongrass and ginger, with a burst of chilli and immersed in creamy coconut milk.Ultimately though, you’ll have to taste it for yourself.
In the Minangkabau tradition, Rendang was served to honoured guests, and on ceremonial occasions such as births, weddings, Al Quran recitals, and much more.  In the Minangkabau culture, Rendang also has spiritual connotations since the four main ingredients symbolize each essential part of Minangkabau society. Meat, as the elders and nobles. Coconut as the teachers, poets and writers. Chilli as the religious leaders. The hotness representing the strictness of religious law.  And the spices as everyone else.
In the days before refrigeration, when wealthy Minangkabau farmers slaughtered a cow for a feast, it was often made into Rendang. Garlic, ginger and shallots, some of the main spices used in in the dish, are known to have strong anti-microbial properties and therefore serve as preservatives. If cooked properly, the rich spices and low moisture of the dish will ensure that the meat will stay good for up to four weeks, despite the country’s tropical heat. And yet another point that must be mentioned – the taste only improves with time. 
For the culinarians out there, itching to give this dish a try, bear in mind that it’s not your everyday beef stew that can be cooked up in a few moments.  Au contraire, concocting this explosively flavourful dish demands a great deal of patience, several cooking techniques, and the better part of four hours.
First, an assortment of aromatic spices are ground into a thick paste, which is then fried to bring out the flavours. Next, the meat is slowly cooked in coconut milk and the spices on very low heat, allowing the meat to tenderize and absorb the seasonings. As the liquid slowly evaporates, the cooking process is changed from a boil to a fry in the oil released by the meat during the boiling stage. The meat must be carefully stirred and monitored, so as not to be burnt or ruined until all the liquid and spices are absorbed perfectly. This technique is known as caramelizing, but using coconut milk in the place of sugar. This creates an extraordinarily flavoured coating around each piece of beef, giving it a delicious and unparalleled taste. 
Rendang is usually served with steamed rice, boiled cassava leaves, young jackfruit and sambal.
