My Research Question:
To what extent do different cultures reflect themselves and their traditions through their typical foods, and how do those cultures connect with each other through their own foods?
THESIS
Different cultures reflect their traditions as well as values largely through the food they make. They use food to connect with other cultures by interpreting foods that other cultures eat and adding their own traditions to it to make it unique. Many dishes around the world contain the same ingredients or same base foods, but with different spices or cooking styles depending on the culture they originate from, because cultures use foods from other places and make it their own when they connect each other. I will demonstrate how different cultures connect with each other through food by including dishes from different cultures, but with the same base ingredients.
