During this trip we were able to taste some typical regional and American dishes. Indeed, after visiting the university we were able to take an active part in the American cooking class. One of these famous dishes was cornbread. This typical American dish is not very famous in France which allowed us to discover quite a different taste from the typical French bread. Then we learnt to cook the White Lightning Chicken Chili. This fantastic spicy soup is amazingly simple and extremely fast to make. This preparation was probably the most appreciated one, along with the last dish. The last preparation is a famous chocolate brownie. This rather widespread dish is a delight for everyone, young and old alike and did not have time to cool down……to be eaten .
But one of the parts that everyone has probably enjoyed the most was tasting. The soup and corn bread mixed quite well and because the brownie was still hot and melting, it was quite a delight to our taste buds. Unfortunately, after eating our filling we moved on to the less popular part of any cook, cleaning, and storage.
To conclude we can say that this activity led by fantastic people was very interesting to discover new dishes unknown in France and the atmosphere was so pleasant that we could share a good laugh during the preparation of these different dishes.
