Agricultural College Diary on the Tip of the Tongue

Go to the United States to study in my favorite major of food and nutrition. This is a remote university town, and my heart suddenly felt a lot colder.

A table of delicious food captures the hearts of students

The orientation meeting on the first day of school grabbed my stomach. When we entered the auditorium, we saw that this was clearly trying to get our mouths shut first! There was a table of delicious food in front of me, including meatballs, fried chicken wings, salads, bread, corn chips... Such a rich meeting gift was enough to make me like this place.

Formal classes are even more exciting. The laboratory is a big kitchen, with pots and pans, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, and all kinds of condiments. The first topic the teacher gave me was to make tofu.

Buy soybeans from the seed store, soak them in water, mash them with a blender, boil them and filter them through gauze, then put some calcium chloride to precipitate the protein, wrap the sediment with gauze, and press it with a brick On top, in a few hours, my American homemade tofu is ready.

Try any international meal

On the day of the lecture, there was a row of tofu delicacies in front of me, fried tofu, mixed tofu, fermented bean curd, dried tofu, and a bottle of it White soy milk, a bottle of chocolate soy milk...foreigners were dazzled and drooled. We explained the origin and nutrition of tofu in fluent English, and the Americans applauded like thunder. As soon as the speech ended, they went straight to the front desk to taste the tofu delicacies. They ate and drank. Do you think we can get high marks for our subject? The teacher said it was just short of an A+.

Food science students are engaged in food research, including the development of new foods. Naturally, we cannot live without delicious food. This group has made a new type of biscuit and invites you to taste it and give professional advice. That group has made a new drink and wants your advice. Food companies are constantly coming out with new products and giving them to everyone to try. Throughout the year, I have never been idle. In addition, students majoring in hotel management from the same college cook delicious meals from various countries all day long and ask us to appraise them. Italian food today, French food tomorrow, Mexican food the day after tomorrow... You can have the opportunity to taste food from all over the world without spending a lot of money. Delicious food.

There is no shortage of fresh fruits, chicken, duck, and fish.

Because the Food Department belongs to the College of Agriculture, we sometimes bump into people majoring in Agriculture during class, and it is inevitable to help each other. Let us evaluate the extra-sweet watermelon they carefully cultivated. A dozen large watermelons were brought back from the fields, and only a few were sampled for testing. The rest were naturally taken home and enjoyed slowly. They not only grow watermelons, but also peanuts, sweet potatoes, eggplants, tomatoes, etc. Everything is picked fresh on the farm that day, not to mention the water. Not only are the fresh seasonal fruits and vegetables, but the canned ones are also good. After making the review of strawberry jam, the spread on the bread for breakfast has been found. The College of Agriculture not only has field crop majors, but also animal husbandry and fish farming majors! The school farm has wild chickens that are coveted. That delicious local chicken soup tastes like a god. Everyone fell in love with the sheep on the farm, so they teamed up to buy one. In the evening, the aroma of roasted lamb legs wafted out from the foreign students’ yard.

The fish pond in the school must be mentioned. The students majoring in fish farming provided us with fresh carp and catfish. Not only the price was much cheaper than the market, but they were also bought fresh from the pond. It was fished out and it was alive and kicking. Sometimes the fish pond is too crowded, and some small fry need to be fished out and thrown away, which is stopped by us Chinese. Those cute little crucian carp that are only as big as a palm, how delicious it is when made into Tonglu Spicy Grilled Fish!

Chinese food changes popularity

Although it is chicken, duck, fish, seasonal fruits and vegetables, it is in the United States after all. No matter how rich it is, it can't stop the craving for love. Grow your own vegetables! The soil in the United States is fertile and the sunshine is sufficient, so Chinese cabbage can grow as strong as Chinese cabbage. Many people have also imitated the vegetables from their hometown, such as leeks, fennel, fungus... A green vegetable field makes the old Americans dumbfounded. Those are some weird vegetables. How come they are never available in supermarkets? Seen it?

In view of the contribution of Americans to the vegetable garden, I also ask them to share the fruits of my labor during the harvest season. Invite them to come over and taste the stir-fried fungus, fennel dumplings, and scrambled eggs with chives... After that, Americans often come to me to exchange meals. He said, I will give you a big pizza from Pizza Hut, and you can cook it for me. A Chinese meal.

The days of studying in the Department of Food and Nutrition are leisurely and comfortable. The homework is not tiring. They are all used in daily life and it is not difficult to learn. I learned how to stuff sausages, smoke bacon, make kimchi, and pickle salted eggs myself. He is proficient in all kinds of skills in the kitchen, and his weight is also increasing. When I graduated, my weight increased from 90 pounds when I first arrived in the United States to 120 pounds.

With all A’s, an award-winning paper, and countless good memories about eating, I ended my days studying abroad.
