Originally, old dry low quality corn seed (Indonesian-Javanese: gronthol) is used. But of course, it is not possible to find this type of corn Germany, so the recipe needs slight adaption.

There is no single “American” flavor in the region from Canada to Mexico, Pacific to Atlantic. However, each region has traditional dishes, flavors, ingredients, and cooking methods. Each is worthy of attention. There are coastal zones with abundant seafood; Asian pockets with fusion influences; the vast mountains, plateaus, and plains with beef, wheat, potatoes, and corn; Southern cuisine with African influences; and Mexican food with both native and Spanish flavors, to name just a few. North American cuisine began with the Native Americans and soon fused with the first European settlers at Plymouth, so the Northeastern United

America-………………….15 Comprehension Questions…………………16 Glossary………………………………17 References…………………………………17 2 Introduction Hi, my name is Jessica Coulthard and I am the Author of this Ebook. During my spring 2014 semester I had the privilege to study abroad in Puntaranes, Costa Rica. While I was there I studied Spanish and took other classes like dancing, surfing, and cuisine! I had an amazing experience in Costa Rica and loved learning new things about the culture. One of my favorite things to do in Costa Rica was to cook and to try new foods! Most of the food in this book I was able to eat and cook while I was in Costa Rica, and it was delicious! 3 Food Introduction Food is very important to every culture and it plays a significant role in traditions. People around the world eat different things and have different traditional dishes that they eat. In this book I will have a brief preview of some of the food I ate and cooked in Costa Rica. 4 Rice and beans In Costa Rica you will rarely see a meal without rice or beans. It is served up for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Rice and beans these are the two ingredients used in many dishes. Costa Ricans prepare their rice and beans in various ways. One of their most famous way to serve it is in a dish called “Gallo Pinto.” Gallo pinto is a mixture of black beans and white rice sprinkled with onions, and spices! While in Costa Rica I usually ate Gallo pinto paired with eggs, tortillas and an avocado! It was one of my favorite dishes! 5 Traditional dishes: Casado The traditional Costa Rica dish is called a casado: which translated means “Marriage” and they described it as a little bit of everything.
