Food cooked with ingredients from all over the world
World history is reenacted every day at the dining table.

All foods and ingredients contain the history of mankind.
Even the moment you take a bite of an oyster hors d'oeuvre with ketchup and lemon, you'll be transported back to scenes from history.
I can picture oysters being farmed in the thermal springs of Rome in the 1st century BC, or the reason why the oyster fork was invented for oyster dishes.
One could imagine how tomatoes from the New World met ketchup, a fermented sauce originating in China, or how lemons, native to northeastern India, reached Europe.

Today, the dining table has become a grand theater where food ingredients from all over the world come to life.
The ingredients and dishes that appear on the table each play a role, reenacting world history every day.
Knowing when and how each food ingredient appeared will allow us to understand human history through the stage of the dining table.
