And we can indeed learn a lot about the target culture through its recipes and discussions about food. Thanks for sharing your ideas.

If you like the post, don't hesitate to stumble or tweet it :) I cook using foreign language recipes more than English ones now. When I cook that is - my wife does most of the cooking around here actually :). Another idea is to write out your favorite recipes in a foreign language and submit them to foreign recipe sites. http://lang-8.com is a good place to get your writing checked by a native speaker.

And I like to cook! Maybe it's because I almost never use recipes and just rely on what I know and what's tasteful and not. Still, this is perfect simply because (like your said) you use all your senses. It's proven that you remember things quicker and better when you use all your senses. Good to see you guys didn't forget how to post. Really, post more! :-) Man, I’m always promoting immersion and I never thought of this. And I like to cook!
