Did you know Hmong is the third most commonly spoken language in Wisconsin, after English and Spanish? The Departments of Nutritional Sciences and Life Sciences Communications, in partnership with CALS, UW-Extension, and The Hmong American Student Association, conducted a cooking demonstration of healthy Hmong dishes, followed by tasting and conversation. Tiffany Moua, an MPH student at UW-Madison, worked with Hmong students to prepare the dishes, while talking about family experiences in preparing and sharing food, and their food experiences here at UW-Madison. The event was filmed for use in Extension, as it works to provide this population in Wisconsin with culturally relevant nutrition and health educational programs.
