Arabic homework time! Here’s a picture of my notes — and translation below.
Assignment was to give a 5 minutes presentation on a special or unique food from your country. In our drills, when the topic of food arises, “hamburgers” is always given as an example of American food. I wanted to do something different, so I spoke about BARBECUE.
- barbecue is meat which is cooked over a low temperature for a long time
- it’s possible to cook all meats like: beef, goat and chicken
- but in southern America, when I’m from, where I was born, pork is considered one of the best meats for barbecue
- now, a history of pork in America!!
- Spanish people brought pigs from Spain to the new world
- and the people in the new world taught the foreigners about cooking with smoke and low temperature
- pork became important to the people because pork was cheap and the people were poor
- today, after five centuries, there are different styles from all places, but there are always three methods for cooking
- 1) smoking 2) baking 3) grilling
- and there is sauce sometimes and without sauce other times
- I love barbecue!!
