Reframing European Gastronomy Legacy Through Innovation, Sustainability and Heritage (RELISH)

RELISH, or Reframing European Gastronomy Legacy through Innovation, Sustainability and Heritage, offers a pathway to put into practice culinary recipes and food culture as cultural and digital tools to strengthen an important aspect of EU's common cultural heritage. Through an innovative and systematic approach to the understanding and use of traditional EU recipes via digital and AI-powered technology, it embarks on the production of a visual and verbal food storytelling web platform that aims to mediate social cohesion, reinforce EU cultural heritage transmission at home and abroad through education and public engagement, while addressing sustainable practices in the home kitchen and the EU hospitality sector. With the aim of benefitting EU society at large by building the necessary blocks to support the transmission of its culinary heritage, RELISH turns its attention to the use of recipes as a tool and a vehicle of knowledge and practice dedicated to emerging adults, making European food culture relevant to future generations, as well as providing an outlet for creativity and activism that ultimately enhances the well-being and health of EU citizens and the planet.
