YA-- This book reflects the joyous, bustling, try-anything-once atmosphere of a Smithsonian Festival of American Folklife and invites readers to sample our ethnic culinary diversity. The recipes are grouped to reflect the geography of the United States, but the index makes it possible to find foods from Armenian fruit leather to a Senegalese casserole. There is no access by country of origin, but the first-person narratives of the individual cooks' experience with the particular food more than makes up for this flaw. Additionally, the cultures and traditions that flavor each region are explored in introductory sections. Students are bound to find ethnic diversity more relevant when their interest is stimulated by a few pupsas de chicharron (Salvadoran pies) and grebble (a German fried pastry). --Cathy Chauvette, Fairfax County Pub .
