Matter-Eater Lad Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 For my anthropology class I have to make some kind of food from another culture that has meaning to that culture and talk about the food and the culture. I live almost 2 hours from school so it'll have to be something that doesn't need to be refrigerated or heated up. Any suggestions? Oh and something kinda easy to make. Thanks.

Mollyxyloto Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 Cucumber sandwiches, England. England apparently is known to many for its 'posh' cucumber sandwiches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NumbersGirl Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 naanramen noodles... important both to the (original) culture, and also the culture otherwise known as poor college students If I think of anything else I'll add it to this post.

Troxley Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 Boortsog (apparently how it's spelled) is a Mongolian doughnut type thing. Here's the Wikipedia page for it. http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boortsog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matter-Eater Lad Posted April 11, 2013 Author Share Posted April 11, 2013 Haha Ian. Coeurli-Like what? It has to have some cultural meaning behind it. And has to be able to be stored without refrigeration and reheating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reilly Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 For Frenchies bring one of those croissants and Nutella, I don't know how traditional the Nutella is but just pretend. I have to say Nick this does sound pretty silly and pointless, I had similar projects to do when I was a child. But whatever, alternative methods and that...

Coeurli Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 Haha Ian. Coeurli-Like what? It has to have some cultural meaning behind it. And has to be able to be stored without refrigeration and reheating. We have so many good stuff but right now i can't think of anything that would suit your assignment :disappointed: (because of the storage issue and that it has to be simple) Macarons are like the most delicious thing in the world but i think they're a bit long to make. Oh, silly me!!!!!!! You should make crepes!!!!! :cheesy: The best crepes in the world are from Brittany (Bretagne), the region I'm from. No need to refrigerate them, but don't wait too long before showing them off ~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coeurli Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 ^i know :awesome: Everyone would think you're a fuckin boss if you made croissants. I'm not sure of how easy/hard it is to make them tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Doctor Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 good crêpes are also hard to make just like good fries you should make fries! like we bake them them here in Belgium, best fries of the world Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coeurli Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 The secret to good crêpes is to make them as thin as possible :nod: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reilly Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 From Ireland just bring a bag of raw potatoes, and tell them it was a delicacy during the famine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
