Until gathering all these recipes together, I didn't quite realize how far and wide we'd traveled this past year -- at least through our kitchens! We have a spicy noodle salad from Thailand and soft potato flatbreads from Norway. We learned how to stir-fry chicken in a wok and how to make stuffed grape leaves the traditional way. That's just the beginning! These are twenty recipes from all corners of the globe that you really have to try for yourselves.

Much as I love Thai food, and I really do love it, perhaps a more accurate title for this article would have been "20 Favourite recipes from Thailand and a few other random places".
