Sorry I'm posting a listicle, and I didn't CW for FOOD because it's c/food

I just went down a rabbit hole reading about Uzbek food and saw this

Uzbek-style plov is found in the post-Soviet countries and Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region of China. In Xinjiang, where the dish is known as polu, it is often served with pickled vegetables, including carrots, onion and tomato.

Yeah I shouldnt be surpised, you can walk from Xingjang and Uzbekistan, and I did know this, I'm just excited about plov! Years ago my housemate and I made an amazing vegan rendition of Plov with apples and cashews, I wish I could remember what else we used...

It doesnt feel possible for me, but I like to imagine one day visiting Xinjiang

anyway, #plovposting is a much healthier late night activity that peeling through imperialist rags
