In previous book I have introduced my cookbook that I have using in the class which is called the trejo's tacos. Today I want to update what I have noticed by reading the book.  I have found that each tacos are very unique and original. For example in this book there are fish tacos, meat tacos, and vegetable tacos. Also the ingredients was affordable so I thought it was easy to get in local markets.  Also, I have found that there were some pages that Trejo appears. This book often uses fancy taco figures although I could see Trejo seriously cooking in his own restaurant. I do like the fancy figures more however I could see his potential against his food.

 In my class I was signed to analyze 2 poems which are “Ode to Pork” and “I too, sing America”. 1. Ode to Pork This poem was made by the man called Kevin Young. He is a director of the Smithsonian’s National Museum of African American History and culture. I wouldn’t be here without you. Without you I’d be umpteen pounds lighter  &  a lot less alive. You stuck round my ribs even when I treated you like a dog dirty, I dare not eat. I know you’re the blues because loving you may kill me–but still you rock me down slow as hamhocks on the stove. Anyway you come fried, cubed, burnt to within one inch of your life I love. Babe, I revere your every Nickname—bacon, chitlin, crackling, sin. Some call you murder, shame’s stepsister– then dress you up &  declare you white &  healthy, but you always come back, sauced, to me. Adam himself gave up a rib to see yours piled pink beside him. Your heaven is the only one worth wanting– You keep me all night cursing your four- letter name, the

 In my class I was assigned to review the video which introduces about the Beauty and the Beast themed restaurant in Florida Disney Land. https://youtu.be/x7jDJlE_iWM In this video it features a lavish dining experience in the elegant ballroom, delicate Rose Gallery and mysterious "West Wing" of the Beast's Castle. The magnificent space offers "great food fast" lunch service by day and full-service table dining at night. Both experiences — themed to the story of Disney's "Beauty and the Beast" — feature French-inspired cuisine. I thought this video review was partisan because it was presented by Disney Travel Professionals. Although it was just a video introduces new restaurants, food and 3 types of room you can eat in restaurant. This restaurant review was done by narrator using certain (key) words and phrases like "magic" because the restaurant was themed as Beauty and the Beast. Although the theme was fantasy however the base of this r

 Today I will be introducing how to make vegan oatmeal cookie.

  In class I was assigned to find a podcast related to the topic of my food book. As I mentioned on previous blog, I am reading the book called, Trejo’s Tacos. This book is a cookbook which deals with Spanish cuisine and the author Trejo’s eventful biography. I also found the podcast called, Food Aesthetics Barcelona. This podcast is about a Finnish-Mexican couple searching for the best quality and best value meals in Barcelona. Also it suggest people how good or bad the food was, their food experiences, and the spot in Barcelona. I thought the book and podcast is corresponding because it suggest delicious Spanish foods. Thus sharing their experiences that they had. However, it is different that podcast is more local; shares delicious restaurant spots in Barcelona. Adding to that, it is same Spanish food but the region is different. Although both book and podcast is very interesting and humorous, I love it very much. Podcast: Listen to Food Aesthetics Barcelona on tunein. TuneIn. (n.d.

  I had a assignment about researching the family and food culture in certain country. I researched about Australian family and their food culture. Australia seems familiar to me because I have been there and spent for 3 weeks with my host family. However, it was very different than I thought. In Molloy family which I have researched love sea food. Although, it is mostly cooked and they eat shrimp and spiny lobster, which are very big compared to Japanese shrimp and lobster. Also, they spend most of their money buying fruits. On the other hand my family spends most of their money with meat, fish and eggs because there are many food fighters in my family (like me).     I also researched about Australian cuisine like vegimite, lamington, fish and chips and Aussie beef burger. Like mentioned before I have been to Australia so it was familiar for me.
