Beef Stroganoff
Russia
Unlike the French, who name dishes after the chefs who devised them, the Russian have usually attached the names of famous households to their cuisine–the cooks were usually servants. The commonly accepted history of Beef Stroganoff is that a French chef who worked for a wealthy St. Petesburg family created the dish for a cooking contest in 1891. Following the Russian custom of the day, he named the prize-winning dish for his employer, Count Pavel Alexandrovich Stroganov.
