I may have misunderstod your comment, If this should be the case I apologize.

This thread is about national dishes. A dish which characteristic your country.

Let me give some examples.

Kidney pie -
If someone said to me:

If I say Kidney pie, what would you say ?
I would say Britain/England

If I said Haggis, what would you say ?
I would say Scotland.

In other words

Kidney pie is Britain/England
Haggis is Scotland.

Hope you understand.
