The recipes of Greenland are making their way into the international arena in recent years. The ingredients used in the Greenland recipes are unusual and rare. The recipes are mostly simple and made of seafood as Greenland is an island. Vegetables and fruits are almost absent from the menus of Greenland as those are mostly exported and are thus very expensive. Rice and potatoes are the two starch items that are used in the recipes of Greenland. The simplicity, healthiness, and usage of less spice in the recipes of Greenland food have made it popular among people around the world.
