Ethiopian Food Research Paper

For my 20 time project I made Ethiopian food. The reason I chose this is because I have a four year old sister, Piper, who my family adopted from Ethiopia last year, and I wanted to learn more about what it was like there, and also to kind of bring it back for her. Throughout this project, I was hoping to learn more about what it is like there, what they do and how they do it. For my project, I researched a traditional coffee ceremony, I looked up recipes, ingredients, common foods, and special occasion foods.

Besides going to restaurants to actually try the food, one of the most interesting things to me that I learned about was the whole thing about traffic ,and how they don't really Have road signs. Like I said earlier I could research a lot more, but this project will have impacted me a lot because I will continue to make Ethiopian food and go to restaurants.
I believe I deserve an A on this project because I followed through with my plan of doing research, going to the restaurants, finding recipes and then making the food and watching my sister eat the food as my food
