Food Cultures Around the World
Food Cultures Around the World
Description
Book Introduction
Foreigners' interest in Korean food culture is growing to the point that the term 'K-food' has emerged.
Additionally, as international travel becomes more free, Korean college students are having more opportunities to experience the food cultures of other countries.
Although it is impossible to include the food cultures of every country in one book, we tried to cover the food cultures of as many countries as possible.
The countries included in this book are Korea; Japan and China in Northeast Asia; Thailand, Vietnam and the Philippines in Southeast Asia; India, Turkey, Saudi Arabia and the Maghreb countries in South Asia, the Middle East and Africa; Russia, Scandinavian countries, France, Germany, the United Kingdom, Hungary, Italy, Spain and Portugal in Europe; the United States, Canada, Mexico, Brazil and Argentina in the Americas; and Australia and New Zealand in Oceania. Through this book, you can acquire knowledge about the characteristics of food culture, representative foods and dining etiquette of various countries around the world.
In addition, we need to properly understand our country's food culture and learn about other countries' food cultures so that we can not only preserve our own food culture but also respect other countries' food cultures.
The authors will continue to revise and supplement the content of this book to provide college students with essential information.
