Ethnic Cuisine

Hi! I'm American and I'm going to marry an Indian man. I LOVE cooking and I'm learning a lot. However, I find some things confusing...grin. When I am there in India, I hear that word "sabje" a lot...my fiance says he wants to eat sabje and a couple times we made some veggies and he called it that - but, it was different each time. I tried to ask him about it, but I guess it's no surprise that he's not that familiar with cooking terms to explain things to me. Also, right now I can't talk to him online so it's hard to get answers - so I thought I'd ask you all! :) So, are there different kinds of sabje? How do you make it? Is it just cut up veggies cooked in oil with jeera and then masala and tumeric? Is it any veggie? Or, only certain ones? Do you use it to stuff paranthas, too? I'm really clueless, I know! ha ha Thanks for your help!

I am aware that horse meat is not as common in the States as it is over in Europe and Asia. What are the reasons why we do not consume horse meat over here? Is it for the same reason as their link to humanity; same reason why dog and cat sonsumption is frowned upon or is it health/sanitary reasons?

I am also aware that Jersey recently passed a law allowing it to be eaten over there.

I do, i like watching the Travel and food channel because you learn about how it all got started. and suprisingly enough alot of the best food was made by peasents and poor people who had to make due with what they had.

I am hooked on the stuff. I especially like mackeral, tuna, salmon, eel, soft shell crab, urchan eggs and clam. I wish I could eat it everyday.

Hi, I was wondering if anyone has a very good recipe for kimchi that they always use/follow. Thanks!

Please don't just get one randomly off a webpage because I can simply do that. Matter of fact, I did, but it didn't taste as great as ones I've tried before. =P

Best recipe or best method of preparation. I have heard that it must be cooked slow to be tender. Is this so?

I've had Vegemite a couple of times (a friend of mine gave me a bottle of it after a trip to Oz), and boy was it salty! } X ^ P We Yanks aren't used to that, at least I'm not. I did dissolve it into water to steam veggies with, and as soup base it would be good. It's straight up that's hard for me to handle.

I saw Marmite in the grocery store a couple of months ago, and was hesitant to buy it, but still curious. Does it taste the same as Vegemite? Is it different? If so, how so?
