Chechen cuisine (Chechen: Нохчийн даар; Noxçiyn daar) encompasses the traditional cooking styles and dishes of the Chechen people of Chechnya (North Caucasus) and the Chechen diaspora. The mountainous geography of the region, as well as its history of warfare have had their influence on the traditional culinary practices of the Chechen people, as has a strong culture of hospitality. The bases of Chechen cuisine are meat, leeks, cheese, pumpkin and corn. The main components of Chechen dishes include seasonings such as onion, wild garlic, pepper and thyme. Chechen cuisine is known for having rich dishes, and is also typically simple to prepare and easily digestible. Many foods are boiled on an open stove, with boiled or steamed dumplings, called galnash, being a staple of Chechen cuisine.
