I need a really good recipe that is really popular in New York. Like in Florida it's Key Lime Pie, what New York's State Food?

thanks.... (:

Answer 1

I grew up in New York.  I NEVER heard of a "State Food".  

Apples grow well there, anything with apples in it would be good.  

Maple Syrup.  I remember visiting my sister and going out to a place where they actually, you know, harvested and made the sap into syrup (Most people think they only do that in Vermont).

Canteloupe is really widely grown in our hometown, but I can't think of anything that is particularly MADE with it.

Answer 2

hot dog

Answer 3

The closest I can find to an "official" state food is an apple muffin.  New York's official state fruit is the apple, the state beverage is milk, the state fish is the speckled trout.  There are several foods that would make a wonderful "official" state food.  Buffalo chicken wings, potato chips ("invented" in Saratoga, Long Island duckling, Waldorf salad, Jell-o was "invented" in New York, Manhattan clam chowder.  I'd also vote for egg creams, black and white cookies, Malomars, pizza and Orange Julius (I miss those).
