“Israel is a nation of immigrants, a cultural melting pot that is reflected in its cuisine, which consists of influences from the Mediterranean, Eastern Europe, Arabia and North African,” said Chef Ruthie.
“Its immigrant influences make Israeli food very dynamic,” she adds.
The lack of a uniform culinary tradition makes it a very easy cuisine to play around with and adapt to different dishes.
At the event, an exhibition of Israeli cuisine products was also on show. The participants were introduced to many interesting factors that make Israel a “food nation”.
Some of the country’s specialties include olive oil and dates.
The event was organised by the Economic and Trade Mission under the Embassy of Israel in Vietnam, who extended the invitation to Chef Ruthie Rousso.
Einat Halevy Levin, senior business development director at the Israel Economic and Trade Mission said that Israel wanted to present to Vietnam its unique and innovative food products.
“Their high quality is a result of extensive experience, R&D and investment by Israeli firms,” she said.
The event was also held in HCM City on May 10.
Chef Rousso is an international chef, food writer and TV personality who has been touring the world and participating in international TV shows, including Israel’s Iron Chef.
