YOUR RECIPE OF MEDITERRANEAN DIET, OUR CULTURAL HERITAGE.
The Mediterranean Diet is an living, shared, cultural heritage that peoples of the Mediterranean basin have been transmitting from generation to generation for centuries. It is a way of life, a perfect combination between tradition and innovation, that all of us contribute to maintaining and enriching.
One of the cultural expressions that best express the style and the creativity of Mediterranean universe is cuisine; its ability to create a variety of dishes and recipes from local agricultural products, the way food is prepared, presented and especially shared at the table.
The Mediterranean Diet Foundation invites you to show the value of this heritage, sending the recipe that in your opinion best expresses the essence of our food culture. Explain why you chose this dish, if it is part of a celebration /festivity, if it is a traditional dish from your family, if you think it identifies your village, your region or if there is a related saying, song, legend, tale related.
A short and simple comment to explain the cultural value of this dish and the Mediterranean Diet!
Each month, our team will choose a representative recipe of the Mediterranean Diet, also assessing the accompanying “cultural” comments, and we will publish it on our website.
The authors of the selected recipe will receive as a gift a copy of the GURMED recipe book, a collection of Mediterranean recipes that include nutritional commentaries.
