US Food
Every summer, when I traveled back to my hometown during school breaks, one of the most common questions asked by the villagers was, “What do Americans eat?” Initially, it was difficult to pin-point what real American food is. Pizza? Hamburgers? Most of these are difficult to make in a rural village in Tibet, so I decided to use ingredients that the villagers have access to, such as potato, beef, barley, and so on, to show my community what “American food” is. In this film, my friend, Angela, showed viewers how to make simple homemade American food: mashed potato, beef and barley soup, and pork steak. A few other things are also shown in order to satisfy Khroskyabs speakers’ curiosity. It walksthe viewers through an American grocery store, and showcases an American kitchen, including utensils. The most surprising thing for both me and my community was the American way of making mashed potato by adding milk. A villager told me that they tried adding milk in their mashed potato, but did not like it.
