Food for Thought
Cooking is love made visible. That is what my grandmother always
told me. Thanks to her, I love cooking. It's a great way for me to share my
love with others. Every time I sit at the table, after cooking for my family,
we create memories. The smells and the food's taste, along with our
conversations, connect us to each other. What wonderful memories I
have!
One of my favourite memories is my grandmother's pumpkin pie. She
always made it in autumn, when the weather got colder. Her friendly
kitchen was the perfect place to warm up and enjoy a taste of the
changing seasons. I still remember the days, when the smell of cinnamon
filled the room with sweetness. Now, every time I smell cinnamon, I
think of my grandmother's pumpkin pie.
My grandmother told me about her first pumpkin pie. When she was a
college student in the US, she stayed with a host family. One year around
Thanksgiving, the hostess taught her how to make a pumpkin pie. Many
years later, she taught me how to make it too.

Next, pour the mixture into the pie crust.
After that, place the pie in the oven and cook for 40 to 50 minutes.
Finally, let the pie cool for at least an hour before serving.
My grandmother loved learning how to make food from other
cultures. "It's my way of making friends from around the world," she
said. Grandmother taught me the secret to cooking: Cook with love.
Thanks to my grandmother, I love to try new food and new recipes from
other countries and cultures.

ago. They put cheese and olive oil on bread. In the 1700s, a pizza with
tomato sauce and cheese became popular in Naples, Italy. Later, Italians
brought the pizza to America, and then it became a popular food all over
the world, with different pizzas from different places.
