Every where i look these days, it seems to me people are discovering their own heritage via their food. Maybe I am more sensitive since the Jewish Holidays are almost upon us.  The New York Times just ran an article Jewish Recipes Routed Through Africa that were for the new years season.. Just saw an article about traditional Ramadan Recipes from Lebanon.I saw an article about Finnish foods being rediscovered right here in Minnesota which makes perfect sense. I had no idea that there were three different languages being spoken in the country.In food stuff yesterday was an article Like the Greek Kitchen of Her Grandmother highlighting one grand-daughters quest to bring the flavors of her Greek grandmothers table to others. I find this all wonderful and request you find one recipe that your grandmother might have made.
      I find it interesting that the people of my generation tried to eat out of the home as much as they could and it is their children that are rekindling the quest of family traditional foods. We need to make sure we do not loose another generation foods traditions of they might be lost forever.  I have lost my OMMA's recipes and I really loved her deserts. They are are lost for good. I can try to recreate them from recipes that are similar but they will never taste the same.
