Corn in Two Countries


One of my students in China, Linda, loves to talk about food.  We were talking about the different ways that we eat corn.  It turns out that we both eat corn on the cob.  Getting corn stuck in your teeth is a universal experience it would seem.

In China, people drink corn juice.  She sent me some videos to show me how to make it, and I promised that I would try it.  I sent her a video of me trying it out, and it took me two tries to make juice.  (The first time I made a corn mush. Oops!)


It's a nice, sweet, warm winter drink.

Just like Americans don't really know about corn juice, she had never heard of corn bread.  So, I made her a video to show her how to make corn bread.
