List of Foods That End With H

    1

    Amaranth

    An ancient pseudocereal seed that was a staple of the Aztec Empire, packed with complete protein and gluten-free, popped like popcorn or simmered into porridge.

    2

    Challah

    Enriched Jewish braided bread — a Shabbat and holiday loaf made with eggs, oil, and a touch of honey, with a characteristic plaited shape and glossy egg-wash crust.

    3

    Goulash

    Hungary's national dish — slow-braised beef with paprika, onions, and caraway, originating as Hungarian herdsmen's trail food and evolving into the definitive expression of Hungarian paprika cuisine.

    4

    Kibbeh

    The national dish of Lebanon and Syria — a blend of minced lamb, bulgur wheat, and spices shaped into oval torpedoes and fried, or served raw as a steak tartare equivalent.

    5

    Labneh

    Strained yoghurt cheese from the Levant — yoghurt hung in cloth until thick enough to roll into balls or spread; drizzled with olive oil and dusted with zaatar or dried herbs, a cornerstone of the mezze table.

    6

    Parrotfish

    A vividly colored tropical reef fish eaten across the Pacific and Caribbean — firm white flesh with a slightly sweet flavor, controversial because of its ecological role.

    7

    Rogan Josh

    A Kashmiri slow-braised lamb curry of Persian origin — deep red from Kashmiri chillies and Ratan Jot bark rather than from turmeric, mildly spiced relative to much Indian cooking.

    8

    Sourdough

    Bread leavened by wild yeast and lactic acid bacteria captured from flour and air — a 6,000-year-old technique with a 2020 pandemic-era revival, producing complex flavor unobtainable from packaged yeast.

    9

    Tabbouleh

    A Levantine salad of finely chopped parsley, mint, tomato, onion, and fine bulgur — bright, herb-forward, and contrary to most non-Arab versions where bulgur dominates.

    10

    Tempeh

    An Indonesian fermented soybean cake bound together by white mycelium — meatier and more textured than tofu, with a nutty, mushroomy flavor that improves with cooking.

    11

    Yellowtail Kingfish

    A large, fast-swimming Pacific game fish prized for its firm, slightly fatty flesh — eaten raw as Japanese hamachi or cooked in Australian and Mediterranean kitchens.
