thanks! it's actually for work. i'm doing an application for a chef and i have to describe aspects of his program that are specifically american. so i'm trying to think of american foods so i can say he'll learn how to make them.
well i think of things like mac & cheese, roasts, hamburgers?... sorry this all sounds so lame.
maybe look up some nice "american" restaurants and see what their menus have to offer and go from there. i feel like there are always hints of other kinds of cooking in "american" food.
