I would just say, " American Home Style". I love to cook and will attempt anything that catches my eye that looks interesting. One of the great things with American cooking, there is just such a great assortment of differences with practically everything that goes onto the table no matter what is being prepared. My pots don't and have never melted but sure have experienced so many different dishes thanks to friends like I have here. Of course credits have to go to those from across the pond too, lol. Origination isn't forgotten.
