Puerto Rican Cuisine
Puerto Rican cooks are experts in preparing a wide range of unusual and wonderful dishes. This remarkable style of cooking
comes from a combination of influences imported from several different civilizations. These include the Taíno Indians who
were native to the island, the Spanish who invaded Puerto Rico in the 1500s, and the Africans who first came to the island as
slaves. All three have left their mark on the development of Puerto Rican cuisine. Here are two dishes often associated with this
country that you might like to try. In fact, you might even want to make them for yourself.
Leche Costrada
This is a sweet treat that people usually eat right after a meal. You need the following things to make it:
4 cups milk, ½ cup sugar, ½ teaspoon salt, 4 eggs and some vanilla to give it a nice taste. Start the cooking process by
combining the milk, sugar, and salt. Then heat the mixture until it reaches the boiling point
(212 F). Allow this liquid to cool a little. Then mix the eggs together and combine them with the milk and sugar base. Make
sure the eggs and milk mix together completely. Add the vanilla. Then put the mixture into a glass dish. Put it in the oven and
bake it for approximately 30 minutes at 350 F, until it is brown on top. Allow it to cool before serving.
Plátanos
Plátanos look a lot like very large bananas. Although initially they are hard and green, if you keep them for a few days, they
will begin to turn yellow and become a little sweeter. Green or yellow, they are usually served as a side dish and they add a lot
to a meal. However, it’s important to know that plátanos must be cooked before eating. The usual way to prepare them is to boil
them with the skin on for 15 to 20 minutes. When done, they should be slightly hard at the center. They are often served with
olive oil along with the rest of the meal.
46. What is the passage mainly about?
ⒶIt’s about the history of Puerto Rican cuisine.
ⒷIt’s about the importance of bananas in Puerto Rican cooking.
ⒸIt’s about the Spanish influence on Puerto Rican cuisine.
ⒹIt’s about two special Puerto Rican dishes.
47. The writer of this story ______.
Ⓐlikes Puerto Rican food
Ⓑis a Taino Indian
Ⓒdoesn’t know how to cook
Ⓓis from Spain
48. In paragraph 1, sentence 4, the words left their mark on mean _____.
Ⓐhave taken ideas from
Ⓑhave written about
Ⓒhave influenced
Ⓓhave discovered
49. What is the main idea of paragraph 1?
ⒶSeveral civilizations helped shape Puerto Rican cuisine.
ⒷPuerto Rican cuisine is very special.
ⒸThe Spanish invasion changed the cuisine of Puerto Rico.
ⒹMore people should try making Puerto Rican dishes.
50. In paragraph 3, sentence 3, what is a side dish?
Ⓐa main part of the meal
Ⓑa hot part of the meal
Ⓒa cold part of the meal
Ⓓa small part of the meal
