Descriptive Essay On My Favorite Food

853 Words4 Pages

It’s safe to say that I’ve been asked numerous times, “what’s your favorite food?” As a kid I would always say, “pizza,” because what kid doesn’t love eating pizza? Once my palate developed and I started eating newer and more extravagant foods, I changed my so called “favorite food” from pizza to French’s Crunchy Onion Chicken. The first time I had this meal I was at my grandma’s house and I thought she created the recipe all on her own. Then a couple years pass by of enjoying the meal and I got curious about how it was made. Grandma eventually tells me how easy it is to make the chicken recipe. She tells me, “it’s on the back of the French’s Onion Ring box.” So I went to the grocery store and bought my package of French’s Onion Rings, went home that night and made the simple meal. There are many, simple and easy, steps one must take to make this recipe. A quick ten-minute trip to your local grocery store and you’re ready to cook! The first step is to butterfly slice your chicken breast to make it thinner, which will also help it cook faster. Next, you take your butterflied chicken breast and dip it in a bowl full of Italian dressing (this gives the chicken a little extra flavor) and make sure to coat it completely. The recipe that is actually on the back of the French’s Onion Ring box calls for a beaten egg, not Italian dressing, but it was grandma’s idea to use Italian dressing to give it a little additional zing. After that, you move the Italian dressing covered chicken

  • Alice Waters Research Paper

    Alice Waters focused on fresh, local, and seasonal ingredients bought from the local farmers because of the food culture that Waters grew up in. Waters was heavily influenced by the French cuisine because of her study abroad experience in France where she learned the different fresh ingredients could make. She developed an obsession for French food and the freshness of their ingredients, specifically la cuisine du marché ¬– market cooking. While the Michelin-starred restaurants had to stick to consistent menus, “The chefs of more modest restaurants, however, the ones Alice had loved best, were in the markets every day, touching the food, smelling it, talking to the farmers and fishermen” (McName 2007, 31). It was through this French experience where Waters learned the importance of fresh ingredients when cooking.

  • Rhetorical Analysis: The Truth About Home Cooking

    751 Words  | 4 Pages

    Foods, whether homemade or fast-foods are meant to serve one major purpose; satisfying hunger. Depending on quantity, food fills the void in the stomach to meet the primary need for satisfaction of hunger to supply energy to the body. The genre of this article was health; its entire argument was to give the reader the message that cooking at home is much healthier and better for you than eating at a restaurant or eating microwavable dinners. Bestselling food writer Mark Bittman makes the case that eating at home is good for your health, good for your family—and, with the right approach, far easier than you think.

  • Gender Differences In Food Selection Essay

    722 Words  | 3 Pages

    The research question is as follows: are there any gender difference in people’s beverage selection of soft drinks and diet soft drinks? The hypothesis is that compared to men, women are less likely to choose soft drinks among all beverages, and if soft drinks are chosen, women are more likely to consume diet soft drinks than regular ones. Relevant empirical works have shown that gender differences in food selection exist as men demonstrate fewer healthy choices than women (Wardle, 2004). In both adolescence and adulthood, men consume meats, dairy products, and carbohydrate- rich foods significantly more frequent than women, and women were more likely to consume fruits, yogurt, tea, and low-calorie carbonated beverages (Rolls, 1991). Health beliefs are hypothesized as one cause of gendered food selection as men rate many health behaviors, including food selection choices, as less important than women do (Wardle, 2004).
