    Lesson 8 VALIDATION COPY 1.0 JUNE 2007 Eating Out evB‡i LvIqv baire khawa This lesson will introduce you to: - Eating out in a restaurant in Bangladesh - Various menu items - How to order menu items - Different table service items. “Eating Out” has recently developed in Bangladesh. Fast foods, restaurants, bakeries have sprouted in Dhaka and Chittagong in the last ten or fifteen years. However, the most popular restaurant is still Chinese, where the menu is in English and the waiters understand it. Another popular takeout is nan-kabab, tandoor bread-chicken/ meat. Thus, restaurants with indigenous food, like rice, lentils, fish, or biriyani, where families might eat out, are still rare. However, a traditional menu available throughout the country, but mostly accessible to men, is given at the beginning of this lesson to introduce the vocabulary. For the sake of continuity, the family outing in the end task takes place in this restaurant, which is still somewhat unrealistic as families would not go to such places. A family interaction in a Chinese restaurant would have been realistic, but not very useful, as the menu items there have English names, such as “soup,” “beef with chili,” “fried chicken,” “mixed vegetables,” and so forth. 124 1.

  • Flatbreads: Old World Meets New
    [Bakery/Cereal] Vol. 18 No. 10 October 2008 Flatbreads: Old World Meets New By Klaus Tenbergen, CMB, CEPC, ASBPB, MCFE, Contributing Editor During the past 100 years, we have seen many changes in the baking industry. Regardless of the many forms it takes, bread is still one of the oldest and most universal foods eaten today. And while some bread is baked to great heights, others are left flat. A flatbread can be described simply as a baked grain product often made without the benefit of adequate gluten or gluten development. It can be a single- or double-layer creation. It can be baked, fried, steamed or dried. It can be round, rectangular, square or of no regular shape. The dough can be from a sole type of flour or a mixture of several. The types vary by region, climate, holiday and culture. The world is flat The term “flatbread” means different things to different cultures, running the gamut from Hispanic tortillas and arepas to Mediterranean pitas, Asian roti and African injera. Tortillas. One of the most-familiar mass-produced flatbreads is the tortilla—now as much a household staple in the United States as white bread. Tortillas have been around an estimated 9,000 years and can be made from ground corn or wheat flour. In “Gourmet Tortillas: Exotic and Traditional Tortilla Dishes,” Karen Howarth notes corn tortillas are a staple of southern Mexico, while northern Mexico enjoys flour and corn tortillas equally. All tortillas are single-layer, unleavened products. Corn tortilla ingredients include corn treated with lime; this “nixtamal” is then washed and coarsely ground to produce masa, which is formed into flat cakes, and cooked.

  • The Immigration of Indian Food
    The Immigration of Indian Food By Emily Morgan, Anna Stukenberg, and Andrew Tolliver 4 August 2011 2 In today’s world, the international food scene is vast. The globalization of society has brought foods together from many different lands. Through such factors as trade and immigration, countries’ cuisine cultures have become altered by the new flavors brought to them via these means. This phenomenon has introduced cultures in one continent to the diets and dishes of those in another. Indian cuisine is one such example of a food culture that has travelled the globe. From the Punjab region alone, innumerable dishes such as Saag Paneer, Lassi, Tandoori Chicken, Curry, and Naan have migrated, joining the cuisine of cultures in such countries as Great Britain, Singapore, Malaysia, and America. Under the influence of new host cultures, Indian cuisine has undergone notable changes. Over time and through travel, Indian foods have adapted to the societies they encounter, often experiencing changes in flavor to suit a new society. Before a proper understanding of Indian food migration can be gleaned, it is first necessary to understand what defines Indian food. According to Lizzie Collingham, author of Curry: A Biography, Indian food is governed by certain principles which are based on what is known as Ayurvedic, or “science of life,” medicine. Historically, the ancient physician, Ayurveda, wrote two medical treatises around the first century B.C. which outlined principles necessary for maintaining a good diet. A good diet, in traditional Indian cooking, called for healthy food that was good for the body and was, at the same time, delicious.
