Participatory inventory of the traditional gastronomic resources of Amatlán de Cañas, (Nayarit, México) as a basis for the design of a traditional gastronomy route

Abstract

The participatory inventory of traditional gastronomic resources is a useful tool for designing a traditional gastronomy route. This process implies the active participation of the local community in the identification of the region's own gastronomic resources, as well as in the promotion and preservation of the local gastronomic culture. For this, the elaboration of the gastronomic inventory from a participatory and ethnographic methodology allowed to identify the cultural elements that support the traditional gastronomy of Amatlán de Cañas, on the basis of which the design of the route will be carried out. In summary, the participatory inventory is a valuable tool for the design of a gastronomic route that promotes and preserves the local gastronomic culture.
