The Three Cultures of the Mediterranean Foundation will be organising the next thursday 23 october a new session of its Cátedra al-Andalus programme, with the title 'The gastronomy of Al-Andalus. The Andalusian flavours that persist in our memory' of Francisco de Borja García Duartespecialist in Medieval History and author of the work of the same name.
The conference will take a look at the al-Andalus cuisineFrom the sophisticated tables of the emirs and caliphs, to the most popular preparations, the traces of which can be found in many of our traditional recipes. The andalusian gastronomy was also the product of a mixture, in which the Hispano-Roman base was combined with the orientalisation introduced by the elites who sought to imitate the court of Greater Syria. In order to carry out his research, the author has traced numerous scientific and poetic texts, treatises of hisba -The souk's rules of good governance, as well as Andalusian recipe books produced in the 13th century.
