5. Amish Food is Simple But Hearty
Amish communities usually grow their own foods on their family farms. The main staple of Amish cuisine is soup – lots and lots of soup. An Amish meal will typically feature apples (which are plentiful in Pennsylvania), potatoes, and chicken. There are no chemicals or preservatives in these ultimate comfort foods. The Amish are excellent farmers and gardeners, and often grow and preserve all of the food their families need themselves. One Amish woman, Elizabeth Coblenz, published popular cookbooks of Amish food.
