About the Project
Kamayan explores the cultural and culinary history of the Philippine archipelago—and the evolution of the practices and ingredients from the pre-colonial Philippines through Spanish and American colonialism to today. By examining this rich history, Kamayan builds bridges: between homeland Filipinos and Filipino Americans in their shared identity, and between older generations fearful of losing their culture, and younger generations eager to bring Filipino cuisine into the mainstream.
