Cuisine (from French cuisine, "cooking; culinary art; kitchen"; ultimately from Latin coquere, "to cook") is a specific set of cooking traditions and practices, often associated with a specific culture. It is often named after the region or place where its underlining culture is present. A cuisine is primarily influenced by the ingredients that are available locally or through trade. Religious food laws can also exercise a strong influence on cuisine.

Traditional cuisine

A traditional cuisine is a coherent tradition of food preparation that rises from the daily lives and kitchens of a people over an extended period of time in a specific region of a country, or a specific country, and which, when localized, has notable distinctions from the cuisine of the country as a whole.

What's the difference between Indian and Nepali cuisine?
Q. I'm familiar with some of the more popular Indian dishes. Nepalese restaurants, however, are few and far between. Since Nepal is adjacent to India, would you say that those two countries have essentially the same type of cuisine? What's the difference?

How has the French culture influenced Australian cuisine?
Q. How has the French culture influenced Australian cuisine? Any specific dishes that a typical Australian may eat? Certain cheeses? Other foods or methods of preparation?
Asked by SuzieBelle - Wed Jun 2 07:16:47 2010 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments

A. you may get more informed answers, or more answers at least, in the society and culture or the food and drink sections. your question is located in the travel section, france. (and, unless they have been to australia most french people would have no idea how french culture has influenced australian cuisine) french culture has had little impact on the types of dishes that a typical australian may eat. (whereas italian culture has had a profound impact). cheese and wine would be the areas that french culture has had some effect on australian cuisine. also, many of the top australian chefs now are inclined to present asian dishes prepared in a french style
