Most people have heard of Italian tagliatelle, English fish and chips, French souffl\u00e9 and German schnitzel, but what about those European cuisines that sit further under the radar? Here are the top five cuisines, from Croatian to Czech, that you might not have heard of. Proof that the most famous foods aren&#8217;t necessarily the best.<\/p>\n<h3>Croatian<\/h3>\n<h3><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-7553\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/2017\/02\/goulash-\u00a9-istock-Tuned_In-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"European Cuisine\" width=\"750\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/goulash-\u00a9-istock-Tuned_In-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/goulash-\u00a9-istock-Tuned_In-1536x1023.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/goulash-\u00a9-istock-Tuned_In-330x220.jpg 330w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/goulash-\u00a9-istock-Tuned_In-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/goulash-\u00a9-istock-Tuned_In-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/goulash-\u00a9-istock-Tuned_In.jpg 1698w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/h3>\n<p>If you&#8217;ve ever seen stuffed cabbage leaves in Croatia, you&#8217;ve most likely seen the delicious sarma. Packed with everything from vegetables to minced meats, everybody has their favourite type. Much like \u010dvarci, which is lard cut into little blocks and fried in pig&#8217;s fat, its buttery texture and intense pork flavour has long guaranteed popularity as a favourite local snack. More unusual menu items to be aware of include, gulas od puha, or dormouse goulash (a soup or stew of meat and vegetables), perhaps not to everyone&#8217;s tastes.<\/p>\n<h3>Finnish<\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-7556\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/2017\/02\/Trad-Easter-Food-istock-ElinaManninen-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"European Cuisine\" width=\"750\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Trad-Easter-Food-istock-ElinaManninen-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Trad-Easter-Food-istock-ElinaManninen-1536x1023.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Trad-Easter-Food-istock-ElinaManninen-330x220.jpg 330w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Trad-Easter-Food-istock-ElinaManninen-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Trad-Easter-Food-istock-ElinaManninen-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Trad-Easter-Food-istock-ElinaManninen.jpg 1698w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>A favourite Finnish treat, pulla is a cardamom flavoured bun scattered with walnuts, vanilla icing and raisins, and commonly washed down with tea or coffee. If you fancy trying some more unusual dishes too, order a plate of m\u00e4mmi. Made of black rye flour and molasses, but also heaped with layers of sugar and surrounded by cream, this sticky black island (that could pass for Christmas Pudding), is Finland&#8217;s ubiquitous Easter dessert. On the savoury side of the equation, make sure to sample leip\u00e4juusto, a giant piece of baked or grilled cheese that comes drenched in jam and has a signature squeak when bitten into.<\/p>\n<h3>Icelandic<\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-7552\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/2017\/02\/Fresh-rye-bread-istock-Magone-1024x681.jpg\" alt=\"European Cuisine\" width=\"750\" height=\"499\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Fresh-rye-bread-istock-Magone-1024x681.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Fresh-rye-bread-istock-Magone-1536x1022.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Fresh-rye-bread-istock-Magone-330x220.jpg 330w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Fresh-rye-bread-istock-Magone-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Fresh-rye-bread-istock-Magone-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Fresh-rye-bread-istock-Magone.jpg 1698w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The Scandinavians have a fun habit of burying food like treasure in their frozen lands. Perhaps the best example of this is hot spring rye bread. Placed underground in special wooden casks close to hot springs, people customise their rye burials with butters, cheeses or sweeter things in a sort of subterranean version of a marinade. Eaten on its own or slapped on a smorgasbord of smoked meats or salmon, the bread rarely plays second fiddle to its trimmings.<\/p>\n<h3>Scottish<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-7554\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/2017\/02\/haggis-istock-blackjake-1024x681.jpg\" alt=\"European Cuisine\" width=\"750\" height=\"499\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/haggis-istock-blackjake-1024x681.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/haggis-istock-blackjake-1536x1022.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/haggis-istock-blackjake-330x220.jpg 330w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/haggis-istock-blackjake-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/haggis-istock-blackjake-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/haggis-istock-blackjake.jpg 1698w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Scotland is the land of the square sausage (lorne); the deep-fried Mars Bar; and perhaps the most famous of them all is haggis. The savoury pudding is made of the liver, heart and lungs of a sheep and despite its gruesome ingredients most visitors love the dish. Scotland&#8217;s dessert menu offers some unusual items, too, including cranachan (made from a mixture of whipped cream, whisky, honey and fresh raspberries with toasted oatmeal soaked overnight) and tablet, which is a big bar of sugary, milky, buttery sweetness that packs enough energy to fuel a small lighthouse.<\/p>\n<h3>Czech<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-7551\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/2017\/02\/czech-smelly-cheese-istock-PeteerS-1024x681.jpg\" alt=\"European Cuisine\" width=\"750\" height=\"499\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/czech-smelly-cheese-istock-PeteerS-1024x681.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/czech-smelly-cheese-istock-PeteerS-1536x1022.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/czech-smelly-cheese-istock-PeteerS-330x220.jpg 330w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/czech-smelly-cheese-istock-PeteerS-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/czech-smelly-cheese-istock-PeteerS-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/czech-smelly-cheese-istock-PeteerS.jpg 1698w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;ve all heard of Czech classics like dumplings, but who&#8217;s familiar with Trdeln\u00edk? A traditional pastry that&#8217;s been wrapped around a bar on an open flame and then dusted with sugar, nuts and cinnamon, this wintry sweet has become so popular that it&#8217;s now available all year round. Then there&#8217;s Olomouck\u00e9 tvar\u016f\u017eky cheese, which is so smelly that it often comes accompanied by a toothbrush!<\/p>\n<p>If some of these European cuisines have piqued your interest, why not sample them in person by booking a trip on Balkan Delight, Best of Finland, Russia &amp; the Baltic States or Ultimate Iceland?<\/p>\n<p><em>Image Credits: Goulash \u00a9 iStock\/Tuned_In.
