Latin American Food History

Long before the Europeans discovered South America, the native populations knew how to cultivate an incredible array of plants. They grew corn, beans,sweet potatoes, Chiles peppers, avocados, peanuts, and chocolate among others.

When the Europeans arrived, they incorporated some of these native dishes into their own cuisine.They took the new foods back to Europe, and they brought European foods to South America, such as pigs,chickens, citrus trees, wheat,almonds, cows and goats among others.


The Native American traditional cooking methods were adapted and modified, and the newly available foods from Europe were mixed in. Asian and African immigrants brought their culinary traditions as well. All of this blended to become the diverse and exciting cuisine that exists today.

Latin American Food is proud to bring the most representative ingredients of South, Central and North America to your restaurant in order to contribute with the positive trend of the Latin American cuisine in Canada.
