Country Ham<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another popular food in Nashville that you must try is the country ham which is traditionally prepared by the locals of the city. Country ham is a high-quality and exquisite meat product that owes its recipe to the 5000-year-old history of food preservation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To preserve the meat that was obtained from the pork, people started to dry the meat to stock them for more extended periods. The first colonists also adopted this method, and they dried and stored the meat without spoiling or wasting it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This method is still in use, and the local businesses and cooks cure the ham in salt or other drying ingredients to reduce the water inside the meat up to one-third during a procedure that can last up to a year. This procedure intensifies the ham&#8217;s taste and flavor, which can be tasted with a country ham pizza in a restaurant in Nashville.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_Chicken_and_Sausage_Jambalaya\"><\/span>5. Chicken and Sausage Jambalaya<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Descending from Creole cuisine, Jambalaya also has widespread fame in the American South. Even though the recipe of this popular food in Nashville varies depending on where you eat, it primarily has two main features: Firstly, it consists of a protein ingredient, which can be chicken or meat, and secondly, it has toasted rice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The rice in Jambalaya is sauteed with pepper, onions, and tomatoes for a while, and later, it is seasoned with spices. Then, chicken thighs and smoked sausage are added to the mixture, giving the meal a deep and deliciously savory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"6_Grilled_Pimento_Mac_n_Cheese\"><\/span>6. Grilled Pimento Mac n Cheese<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Even featuring in TV shows, another taste to be tried in the city is grilled pimento mac n cheese. It has become one of the <strong>most popular foods in Nashville <\/strong>by combining the taste of macaroni, cheese, toasted bread, and butter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The preparation of this <strong>popular food in Nashville<\/strong> starts with a buttered dough on which macaroni with pimento cheese is spread. Then, tomato slices, American cheddar, and smoked bacon, which carry acid, flavor, and protein, come to the stage. Finished with bread and grilled for about two minutes on each side, Grilled Pimento Mac n Cheese is ready to go for your pleasure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"7_Fried_Catfish\"><\/span>7.
