Reminders of a childhood culture clash













Ok
folks
I have organised interviews with home cooks of the following cuisines:
  • Australian
  • American
  • British
  • Greek
  • German
  • French
  • Russian
  • Chinese
  • Malaysian
  • Indian
  • Lebanese
  • Italian

I am also including a a special chapter on Australian kid's parties. I remember my own childhood trauma of presenting a roast suckling pig (a delicacy in Chinese) to some 12 year old friends of mine who screamed in horror at the nose, feet and tail still attached to the animal. Or they could have been screaming at the sight of my cleaver wielding grandma. Nevertheless, as soon as I could cook, I started making "Aussie" treats for these kind of parties. Hopefully some of my readers get to make these too!!
