Stip is a regional dish in the Dutch provinces of Groningen, Drenthe, and Overijssel. It is served as buckwheat porridge with a hole containing fried bacon and a big spoonful of syrup.[1]
The traditional way to eat this dish follows two steps. First, a bite from the outside of the dish is dipped into the central hole with syrup. This is continued until the edge of the hole is breached. After the breach, the dish is mixed and continued until finished. Because of this playful eating style, the dish is popular among children.
