PORTUGUESE TRADITIONAL FOOD WORKSHOP PROCESS
SEAFARING NATION
Portuguese gastronomy history
We start by a 15 minutes explanation on how Portugal’s navigators played a crucial role in the Age of Discoveries. By trading spices from India, Africa, and the Americas, Portugal’s global expeditions also influenced various cuisines around the world, from Brazil to Thailand and Japan. This exchange has made Portuguese cuisine a vibrant tapestry of flavours, reflecting its historical global connections.
