Extractions: Exotic-looking even on a map, the Mexican state of Veracruz stretches along the Gulf Coast like the graceful tentacle of a sea creature. Within the boundaries formed by the warm coastal waters to the east and the Sierra Madre Oriental to the west is an enticing pot-pourri of cultures. The indigenous, the Afro-Cuban and the Spanish have all contributed to the vibrant good looks, enchanting music and rich culinary traditions of the veracruzanos, or jarochos, as they often refer to themselves. Long before Europeans arrived in Mexico via what is now the port city of Veracruz, the area occupied by the modern-day state of Veracruz was populated by the Olmecs, common cultural forebears of many Mesoamerican ethnic groups, as well as Huastecs and Totonacs. The latter were famous for their cultivation of vanilla and curing the pods for culinary use, adding a unique flavor to many of their dishes. The use of acuyo, a herb also known as hoja santa , also characterized the indigenous cooking of the area.

Extractions: Conchobhar, the Bard of the Mists and Autocrat for this feast, at which his replacement is chosen, wanted food from different countries in each course. I used this opportunity to pick food cultures that had ties to each other, so the courses wouldn't be too jarring. I decided to begin and end the feast with courses that mixed dishes from all three cultures. Then each feast course would feature one culture. Because this was a bit ambitious, i kept the number of dishes in each of the middle courses to three. Bread - mix of sourdough bread and dinner rolls Sinab - Almond-Honey-Mustard Sauce - Anonymous Andalusian Cookbook Almond-stuffed Prosciutto-wrapped Dates - Catalan Steamed Asparagus - asparagus tossed with olive oil, vinegar, salt - Italian (Apicius, Anthimus, Platina) Salmon Casserole - salmon, orange juice, almonds, pine nuts, raisins, galingal, pepper, ginger, saffron, fresh parsley, fresh mint, fresh marjoram - 16th c.

I Inherited the Gossip Gene There is More Racism Against Arabs My Mother-in-Law First Visualized Me as Entirely Veiled My Mixed Culture Has Exposed Me to Prejudice ... My French Mother Adored my Father Has Your Arabic Name Prejudiced You? In France three Judges rule that the son of an Algerian father and French mother cannot take his father's name because he has blue eyes and light skin. Having an Arabic name would be prejudicial to him, they said. Read the story . Do you have a similar experience? Has your Arabic name prejudiced you in the West? We would like to hear your comments and experiences I INHERITED THE GOSSIP GENE My father is Palestinian, my mother Belgian. I was raised in the USA and am settled in Chicago. My mother language is English but I also speak Arabic and feel 200% Palestinian. My Arabic roots have given me a sense of belonging and pride although I have inherited "the gossip gene"! My parents have been married for 30 years and did not encounter any problems as a result of their cultural differences. We are lucky because my mom has "become" an Arab. She even says "we" when speaking of Arabs. The only problems I faced while growing up was that once in a while there would be idiots who would excuse my bad behavior because "her mom isn't an Arab". I think that the success of mixed Arab/non-Arab marriages depends on how willing the non-Arab is to adapt to the Arab culture. As for my children THEY MUST marry Arabs!

In my mind, cooking and eating should not be merely a way to provide sustenance, but a celebration of the bounty that God provides us. The Maque Chou is suh a celebration. While the local corn is readily available and sweet, we revel in it. I hope you enjoy these as much as we do. Grilled stuffed zucchini 1 8 oz pkg cream cheese (I use the fat free) In a large skillet, sautee the onions, garlic, artichoke bottoms, mushrooms and ham until the onions are clear and the mushrooms have renderd all their liquid. Strain then return to the skillet. Add the cream cheese and cook until combined. Add the Parmigiana Reggiano and stir well. Begin adding the bread crumbs, a little at the time until you have a mixture that is moist but ABSOLUTELY not runny. Spoon the mixture into the zucchini shells and place over INDIRECT heat on the grill for 20 minutes. NOTE: You may notice that I did not list salt in the recipe. That is because the cheese and the ham both contain enough salt for me and my family. You may wish to taste the stuffing and add salt.

Extractions: Return to Menu Mixed Feelings by David Lau Through university I felt an invisible tug to talk to other people who were raised within two cultures. I was not so surprised to find commonality in our mutual stories of rejection and dismissal. The pernicious thing about the human psyche is it's vulnerability to stray comments. As I stood in line today to sign a religious membership association form, an invigilator leaned aside to the man at his right. He said in Punjabi "Is this guy a Punjabi, he looks like a white guy?" The man to his right, an old family friend who knew my contributions to the community, looked at my disappointed face and realised that I had understood the slur, and snapped back a response, too quick for me to translate in my head. Last week, a trusted co-worker stood beside me and told my client to ignore my advice, inferring that I could not understand his problem of discrimination because I "identified myself as white," that "I didn't care." My client looked at me with new eyes. When I was growing up in a small Vancouver Island town, my father, over a span of years, broached the subject of my culture, or rather, my shared cultures. He told me that he had worried that I would receive poor treatment from both sides of my two cultures due to discrimination. He told me that one uncle of his had told him a very cautionary tale of a German man who married a `dark' woman. "Their child," this uncle said, "was born with

This past winter was disastrous for the Monarch population, and they really need our help. As always, if you do have questions, suggestions or ideas, do not hesitate to drop us a note. Rex Gregor gtt@goalsmint.com table of contents In the United States the term 'Stir-Fry' is misleading. Thousands of years ago, Chinese cooks learned that in preparing foods quickly, in small amounts, liquid was unnecessary. They would cut bite-sized pieces of ingredients for rapid cooking. This unique method became known as "Chow" (stir-frying in the United States) and was prepared with vegetables, meats, poultry and sea foods. Most of the "Baby" vegetable seeds that followed the Vietnamese people to the United States were a part of the Oriental Culture.

Extractions: Revered around the world for its pungent taste, ginger (Zingiber officinale) is a natural spice that is also widely prized for its medicinal properties. Since ancient times, traditional healers in a diverse array of cultures have used this plant primarily to help settle upset stomachs. Chinese herbalists have relied on ginger as a medicine and flavoring for more than 2,500 years. The early Greeks mixed it into breads (hence the first gingerbread), and North American colonists sipped nausea-quelling ginger beer, the precursor of modern ginger ale. Today, many cultures continue to rely on ginger for controlling nausea and also for reducing inflammation. A botanical relative of marjoram and turmeric, the ginger plant is indigenous to southeast Asia and is now also extensively cultivated in Jamaica and other tropical areas. It's the plant's aromatic rhizome (or underground stem) that's used for culinary and medicinal purposes. Ginger's long list of curative powers rival its infinite culinary uses. In ancient China, ginger was regarded as a healing gift from God and was commonly used to cleanse and warm the body. Ginger is a component in more than 50% of all traditional Chinese herbal remedies. Today, we are learning what the Chinese have known for 7000 years.

Each of the Australian cookery teachers has a different personality, a unique kitchen and of course, different recipes to share. Cooking classes - four in all - were part of the itinerary of a week-long food tour of Victoria, Australia, early last month organised by Malaysian food writer Rohani Jelani who has set up her own company, Foodworks Services. A group of nine, mostly Malaysians, joined the tour. Australian cuisine wasn't the only focus; we learnt to cook Vietnamese and Italian! Brugman, a great Australian chef, conducted a "hands-on" cookery lesson with many willing volunteers, including a few individuals who'd never cooked. At Sartori's cake shop, our lunch comprised two cakes, two tarts and a salad to go! The two males in the group, Datuk Kok Wee Kiat and Peter Abdul Razak Bostock, each sportingly took turns to caramelise the sugar on the banana and coconut brulee tart using a blowtorch. Apparently, the blowtorch is quite a common tool for quick searing in commercial kitchens Down Under.
