Ethnographic Assignment This is your time to be social anthropologists! Select a family (or friend) who regularly cooks a dish (meal or drink) from their “family recipe”. You will interview your selected family (or friend). And, you will write about your recent attendance at a family (or friend) meal where a family member will have prepared a meal from traditional family recipe. This family recipe could have been passed from generation to generation, or, could be a new traditional started by your family (or friend) member.

Instruction

There are two aspects to this assignment, please read carefully: Field Notes: You will write a comprehensive 3-4-page field note of your activity as an ethnographer. This excludes the reference page, if you decide to use external source to support your discussion in the field notes. Field notes is a record of events that includes descriptive details, questions, and general engagement with the fieldwork. You can write your notes in first person but remember you are an ethnographer here so try to include as much of anthropological perspective relying on social-cultural topics that you have learned in class. Family Recipe Interview: You will prepare separate document of an interview transcript at least 1 page long and submit it with your field notes. You will need to request one member of your family or a friend, who prepares a family recipe meal (dish or drink), for an interview. There is often a particular dish that is prepared regularly in a family. Where did this come from? Whose recipe is it? Why is it important? What are the ingredients? What is the method? How is it served? When is it made? Is this a written recipe, or made from memory? Interview a family member about the recipe and its significance. If possible make the recipe yourself and reflect on the significance of this enculturation. Explore the importance of this recipe for you and your family, and when you would eat it together. You will need to describe the family background, and briefly note the occasions when the recipe is used.
