A Taste of Ticuna - The Revival of Ancestral Recipes
In the Amazon, the traditional recipes of the Ticuna communities (one of the indigenous ethnic groups), are a precious heritage passed down and continually refined through generations, carrying deep historical, cultural, and ecological wisdom. However, traditional cooking methods have gradually disappeared, especially among the younger generation. To protect this invaluable knowledge, the women of one Ticuna community have spontaneously formed an innovative group called “Sabores y Sabores Ticuna,” dedicated to reviving traditional recipes. They pass down the traditions, incorporate new ideas, sparking the younger generation’s interest in Ticuna culture and the natural environment.
