Breakfast ideas from around the world: every culture answers the morning differently, and breakfast sets the tone for the day. Vietnamese phở, French croissants with coffee, Japanese tamagoyaki with rice and miso, Mexican huevos rancheros — each is built to wake the body gently and keep it going until lunch.
Good breakfast recipes share a few qualities: they come together quickly, they balance protein with something fresh or warm, and they are forgiving before coffee. Eggs, bread, rice, fruit and yoghurt appear in almost every tradition, dressed up with local herbs, spices and sauces.
Browse the breakfast recipes below — from light and quick to slow weekend mornings — and find the one that fits your day.
