Northeastern USA

The Northeastern United States includes New England and the Middle Atlantic States. Though made up of more states than any other region of the United States, the Northeast is the smallest region. Historically, the Northeast has been America’s melting pot. Through the years, the Northeast has remained a landing point for immigrants. Cities along the Atlantic have become rich cultural stews into which new arrivals add their food traditions. Irish immigrants gave us New England boiled dinner; German immigrants, Dutch oven stews; and Italian-Americans have created a hybrid cuisine that has spread throughout the country. More recently, the culinary influences have shifted as immigration becomes increasingly Asian, African, Middle Eastern, and Caribbean, but the invaluable contributions to the American pantry continue on as ever.

Featured Cook Roxanne R. Cooking Level: Intermediate

About me: I'm a Vermont teen who loves to cook wacky and delicious concoctions. I love to photograph, draw, paint, and be out with nature. My best friend happens to be a dog. I love the band The Horse Flies. Some other interests are in yellow umbrellas, violin, french, beat poetry, trees, sunrises, drawing mushrooms, and the scientific analysis of puddle jumping.
