Tastes of the Earth

Tastes of the Earth


Tastes of the Earth is a geo-gastronomic encyclopedia that invites you to explore the world’s cultures through their ingredients, recipes, and culinary traditions. From the origin of each ingredient to its place on the table, this site reveals how food connects us to geography, history, and cultural identity.

How this site works

This sits is divided into three main areas. You can explore food starting from ingredients, from traditional recipes, or from the territory where culinary traditions were born. Everything is interconnected, so you can easily navigate between these sections.

Recipes of the Earth

An alphabetical archive of traditional and authentic recipes. Browse by dish name and find ingredient lists, preparation steps, and links to the cultures they come from.

Territories of the Earth

From continents to municipalities, explore what people eat in each part of the Earth. Discover regional ingredients, typical dishes, and culinary identities.

Ingredients of the Earth

A journey through natural and processed food products. Discover how ingredients and basic preparations are classified, where they come from, and how they are used in global cuisines.
