Bangladesh

Bangladeshi cooking is built on rice and river fish, sharpened by the sting of raw mustard oil and the seeds ground into it. Hilsa in mustard gravy, khichuri on a rainy afternoon, and bhorta mashed at the table run through Dhaka kitchens and Sylhet villages alike, while Mughal-inherited biryani and milk-based sweets mark the feast days.
