Hutspot is a Dutch variation of meat stew. It contains beef, potatoes, onions, carrots and spices - nothing unusual. But there is a legend: in order to lift the Spanish blockade of the city of Leiden in 1574, the Dutch opened the dams. The Spaniards were washed away by the water, and a huge cauldron of hutspot remained in their camp. The inhabitants of Leiden ate it until help arrived.
