The Many Varieties Of Lebanese Cuisine



Lebanese cuisine is simply the local culinary traditions and practices originated in Lebanon. It includes an incredible variety of fresh fruits, vegetables, whole grains, seafood and meat. Usually, fish is eaten very rarely, and if red meat is consumed, it’s usually goat and lamb. The traditional food is mostly vegetarian; you will find poultry, dates, olives, nuts and seeds in abundance.

The influence of Romans on Lebanese cuisine was minimal. However, the Roman traders did bring in cheeses, yeast, fish, meat and game to the region. As the years went by, the population of Lebanese started to grow and with this the demand for these foods also grew. This brought about the need for more storage spaces for these products, which led to the development of the first ovens in the area, which were used by Bedouins to bake wheat and dates (leaving behind the leavened bread that we all know as lebannus).

When Islam began spreading through the Middle East and the country was divided into various empires, the influence of the Jews and the Arabs soon made their way into the Lebanon cooking that we are familiar with today. The population of the area was so small that only the men were allowed to cook and therefore any spices used were highly aromatic so that the entire house would not smell of the spices. In order to maintain their social ranking, the Bedouins had to be extremely careful with the types of spices they used and the amounts that they used. Therefore, much of the Lebanon food of today is based on exactly how things were prepared back then, a long time ago in a time that seems so short to us today.
