Culinary America – Regional Cuisines
The United States has long been viewed as a melting pot of many cultures. Nowhere is this diversity more apparent than in the foods we eat. Culinary America reflects the many cultures and histories that comprise this country. Historically, as immigrants arrived in this country, they brought their customs and recipes and combined them with the produce and livestock available in the regions where they settled. The results yielded foods that were distinctly American, while preserving traditions from Europe, Africa, Mexico, and other corners of the world. Culinary America truly encompasses global ingredients and recipes.

Cookies, Anyone?
Arlene of our staff shared the following delightful story with me the other day:
“I answered the quiet knock at my door, wondering who could be there. As an American attending a Spanish language school in Guadalajara, Mexico, I was very new to my neighborhood. A shy smile greeted me, and a 5-year-old little boy said softly, “My mother sent this over for you. She wanted you to try some special Mexican food.” The plate he thrust into my hands contained what I recognized as chiles rellenos, mild chilies stuffed with cheese and fried in a foamy egg batter. They’re delicious! Instead of simply acknowledging my appreciation for his mother’s kind gesture, I followed the local custom of saying, “Thank you, I’ll return the plate later.” I had learned that the one who receives the food should return the plate filled with a similar gift. Inwardly, I congratulated myself on how well I was learning about the culture.
