How to Explore Your Cultural Heritage
My first exposure to my German cuisine was a visit to an aunt’s where many of my adult relatives were working together to make sausage. While they fed meat into the hand-cranked grinder and filled the intestine casing, an aunt offered me a treat. I said “please,” and received her famous home-made sauerkraut, which five-year-old me perceived to be a stinking handful of wet cabbage.
The downside was that she did not instill in me a deep love of my heritage. The upside, for her, was that I never asked her for a treat again.
