Known as luandun in Chinese, this famous dish, which directly translates a "mixed stew," is a classic dish from northeastern China known for its rich flavors and abundant ingredients. It combines a variety of meat and vegetables – from pork, beef, lamb and chicken to potatoes, carrots and radishes – with tofu. With a hearty broth and a range of textures, the stew is a favorite among the people of northeastern China, especially during the winter months.

Feijoada is one of Brazil’s traditional recipes, considered the country's national dish. Feijoada features black beans, various pork products (pork meat, sausages, or trotters), beef, and an array of seasonings, simmered until the broth becomes thick and flavorful and served with rice. Known for its rich flavor profile and varied textures, feijoada is symbolic of Brazilian culinary culture and remains a favorite among many Brazilians.
Despite their geographical and cultural distinctions, the mixed stew and feijoada both consist of a variety of ingredients cooked together, offering rich flavors and nutritional value, making them ideal choices for hearty family meals.
