What is cuisine?

The traditional cooking methods and food preparation of cultures, religions and regions is known as cuisine. The ingredients, equipment and skill available may influence a cuisine. A cuisine includes not only the food of a culture, but also the beverages. New cuisines evolve over time.

Advances in food production, food preservation and the transport of food have now allowed cuisines to be experienced around the world and not just in their place of origin. The traditional cuisines of France, Italy, India and Japan are particularly popular around the world. Western influences such as fast food threaten the future of some traditional cuisines around the world and the Slow Food movement has been established to promote and preserve these cuisines.
