- The Italian- and Portuguese-style fish stews of northern California and New England, respectively; the Russian soliankas, German goulashes, and Greek lamb stews of the Midwest; […]—these stews certainly had their foreign antecedents, but by the time they had been transformed in the all-American stewpot, there can be no doubt that they assumed an altogether new identity that will forever be part of our proud culinary heritage.
