Are you curious about what is eaten at state banquets all over the world?
Most state banquets in Ethiopia are raw beef banquets. Raw beef is tender, and blood beef is the most popular. There are two ways to eat it: one is to cut the whole skinned cow in half and hang it on a hook. The guest has a knife in one hand and a plate in the other. You can cut anything you like on the cow yourself, dip it in seasoning while cutting, and don't add staple food; The other is to grind beef into minced meat, mix it with spices such as Chili powder and serve it on a plate, or wrap it in a kind of "Ingila" pancake made of grain. When Emperor Haile Selassie was in office, he hosted a banquet for Ambassador Yu Peiwen of China, and later the Ethiopian Foreign Minister hosted a banquet for Ambassador Yang Shouzheng, all of which were hosted with raw beef. That was a real treat. But it really hurts our ambassador.
