Savor Kazakhstan's rich flavors rooted in Nomadic and regional influences.
Food found in Kazakhstan is heavily influenced by its Nomadic culture and even by Russia, Turkey, and the Middle East. The single most popular dish in Kazakhstan is Beshbarmak. The name Beshbarmak means five fingers. It is made from layers of pasta, horse meat, onions, and broth. At a restaurant, if the server serves you with the best cuts, it means you are a very important person. So, watch out for that.
Another popular dish to have is Lagman, which is originally from the Xinjiang region. The dish consists of thick noodles spiced with pepper along with onions and tomatoes. Additionally, a spicy vinegar-based sauce is added. In short, the dish satisfies your hunger.
When it comes to drinks, Kazakhstan offers a variety of drinks. Shubat is a traditional drink made from fermented camel's milk. It is considered a refreshing drink in summer. If you want to end your meals with a drink that helps with digestion, try Ayran. The drink is a blend of yogurt with water and salt.
