Food History
I find food history fascinating. Anytime I am introduced to a new dish I want to know its origin, and if its current state is anything like its original.
What I have found in the last few years of research, is that foods go through multiple developments in order to adapt to tastes, availability, and climate. When delving into food history, sometimes I encounter that the reason a dish exists is due to the ingenuity of a certain culture, usually stemming from need.
In this blog I try to focus on the origins of foods, and how they have been adapted throughout the history of mankind. whenever I bring up the issue of food history , sometimes I get raised eyebrows. Other times, I just get a brush off:"Oh , I just like like to eat, I never really wondered where different dishes or ingredients came from."
