Many of them frequent our canteens and like eating the- re. Who does not know the feeling, after having stayed abroad for a while, of being overcome with a particularly strong longing for their favorite dishes or for some of their mom's home cooking? A culinary homesickness of sorts is something that is not just experienced by in- ternational students, but also by those who might have grown up abroad or whose parents have international origins. This was reason enough for us at Studierenden- werk Thüringen to ask these students what they would like to have us serve them in our canteens. We ended up cooking together. We invited students from twelve different culinary cultures to prepare au- thentic dishes from their homeland alongside our cooks in an intercultural setting. Things did not always go smoothly. Getting the correct consistency of Chinese sticky rice almost led us to sheer exasperation, as was the case with the difficult task of getting the shape of Pelmini right. However, we managed to master both these tasks through a successful intercultural exchange with the students. We have been able to compile many more of these kinds of wonderful intercultural experiences in this cookbook.
