UNESCO’s Mediterranean diet description includes knowledge, skills, rituals and sharing food, rather than one universal list of ingredients. Different communities express a tradition differently. Begin with a local story and the people who maintain it. Our spice-table illustration is generated and represents no particular cook’s kitchen; it is a visual invitation, not evidence of an authentic recipe or a claim of cultural ownership.
