Culture Note: potluck
In America, when friends or relatives get together, they meet at the house of one of them. Since they don’t want to cook there to make great trouble, each of them just brings some food or drinks to celebrate the reunion. In this case, the host’s pot doesn’t need to be used. It’s a “lucky” pot. And this dinner is a “potluck” one.

Script1.My favorite food has to be macaroni and cheese, like my mom
made, with lots and lots of cheese, so it’s really cheesy and really creamy.You have to bake it in a really hot oven so it gets a crispy crust. And it has to be hot…steaming. Then you put a lot of salt on it. Oh, man. I’m getting hungry just thinking about it…
2. What I really like is chirashi-zushi. I don’t know why. My aunt used to make it on my birthday when I was a kid. It’s really simple, just rice and raw fish, kind of like sushi but in a bowl. Maybe that’s why I like it. The rice is nice and soft and warm, you know, and the fish is just a little salty, and you put a little wasabi on it, too. And it’s so colorful if you use the right kind of fish. It’s so good. I think it’s pretty good for you, too.
3. When I pass a Chinese restaurant and smell the food, I
always think of how my grandma used to make
potstickers. She’d roll-out the dough into little circles
and fill them with just the right amount of ground meat
and veggies, mixed together and flavored with a few
spices. The trick to making them really good is to fry
them a little, then steam them in a bamboo steamer
(蒸笼 ). Then you just dip them in some soy and vinegar sauce, and they’re perfect.

4. Unless you’ve been to Mexico, you don’t know what good tortillas are like. Here they’re like cardboard! Back in Mexico, I’d be the one who went to the tortilla lady in the afternoon to pick up the tortillas for my family. Anyway, when they’re hot and fresh, they taste good by themselves, but with some beans or something … oh, yeah, they were good. I’d always eat one on the way home.

When people talk about making food, they use words to show time-order: “First, you… Then… After that…”.
“Hot” food in English can mean two things: spicy (hot-tasting), or high temperature. Compare “That burrito (墨西哥玉米煎饼) is too spicy hot” to “That soup is too hot on my tongue. I’ll wait till it cools down.”
Cajun [`keidn] refers to the culture of the French people who live in Louisiana. “Cajun” is used to describe their food, music, and dance.

Script Announcer: Maw-Maw is an authentic Cajun grandma
from Louisiana who has won awards for the best jambalaya in the world. She’ll share her secrets with you today, on the most popular daytime food show, “Maw-Maw’s Cajun kitchen!”
Maw-Maw: Welcome to “Maw-Maw’s Cajun kitchen.”
Today we’re going to make the most famous Louisiana Cajun dish, jambalaya! And if you’re far away from your own grandma, you can learn how to cook this from me, your TV Cajun Maw-Maw.
Script First, you’ve got to decide how many people you’re
feeding. The recipe I make will feed a big crew, say thirty people. If you don’t have that many people comin’over, just cut it down to size. You start with a mess of meat or seafood. We like pork in my house, but you can use crawfish, chicken, shrimp, or whatever you’ve got around. You fry it all up in some fat till it’s nice and brown. Well, all right, the doctor says I gotta use olive oil, ’cause it’s healthier.
Script
Now two cloves of garlic, chopped up. Then you throw in some peppers. Make ’em hot peppers if you can get the fresh ones, and some celery, and onion. We put onion, celery, and pepper in everything here in Louisiana. And some andouille sausage—— that’s nice ’n spicy, too——nice fresh tomatoes, some rice, and broth.
Now you let that boil, but just for a minute, then you
cover the pot and turn the heat way down to low. You wanna let that cook till the rice is soft, and dump some Tabasco on there. You folks from the North, that’s our Louisiana hot sauce, made from red peppers. We put it in nearly everything. So don’t be afraid.
Script
If it’s real Cajun cooking, your eyes should water when you take a bite. If they don’t, it ain’t hot enough. Let’s give it a taste test here. Whee-whoo! I guarantee that’s spicy! Throw some cayenne pepper(辣椒 ) in there, too, while you’re at it. All that pepper will keep you and your food healthy. So you simmer it all for thirty minutes, then serve with green onion on the top and a bit more tabasco sauce (塔巴斯科沙司 ). Take a bite of this and you’ll feel like you’re back home in Louisiana!
