  Subject: [Sca-cooks] food question


  Last night at work.. while eating my tabouli and salad...
  (yeah they actually let me take a 10 minute supper break)
  something kept niggling at me until I deciced to ask outright..

  It all started with a visit to this tiny food market..  converted
  7-11/gas station
  that was bought a couple of years ago by two Jordanian
  brothers...
  we talk about the food in the middle east.  Great teachers.. they
  taste stuff
  I make.   sometimes they like it, sometimes they don't... same
  for me...
  man they eat some strange stuff.. and at times I am afraid to
  ask... (grins)

  the salad.. tomatoes, cucumbers, green onions, red, yellow and
  green peppers..
  made me wonder if there was, somewhere a list of what are
  considered
  'new world foods' I know tomatoes are.. but are green pepers or
  cucumbers?

  While watching Food Channel, there was this show about Morroco
  and Tajines.. and then one about India..   This chef cooked a
  'traditional' meal.. It looked like a giant paella to me.. but he
  had
  Tomatoes in it.  That got me to wondering how long a dish has to
  be cooked
  before It is called ''traditional' any ideas?
