📖 A journey through history through food and cooking
What did our ancestors eat? When did staple ingredients such as potatoes, tomatoes, or chocolate arrive on our tables? This tour traces the development of food and diet in Catalonia from prehistory right up to modern times.
Participants will discover the trades associated with food—from farming and trade to cooks and taverns—alongside historic markets and recipe books. The visit also explores times of abundance and hardship, religious customs, technological innovations, and cultural exchanges that shaped gastronomy.
