Heritage Food (updated)

Although there will be no study on "heritage food" as the project (CDP2) had been scrapped, it is interesting to note there are places and restaurants emphasising on the authenticity of the food ingredients and preparation.
Then one learns about the origins of the food and how certain ingredients were often used in making that kind of prepared food.
An author of an article in Wild Asia wrote about forest products and based her research on the Penarikan area of Negeri Sembilan. Many of the forest products were used to make the cuisine of the Minang people who settled in this area of Negeri Sembilan.
You could investigate why a particular cuisine use a particular ingredient.
And why people like and enjoy the culinary experience of heritage food.
