•The development of American culinary
culture has been shaped by the country's
historical, geographical, and demographic
conditions. American cuisine started with
the cultivation of various agricultural
products and food production initiated by
English colonies in the 17th century.
• Another important factor in the
development of American cuisine is
the recipes brought by immigrants.
The United States is one of the
countries with the largest immigrant
population in the world, and traditional
dishes brought by immigrants have
contributed greatly to the diversity of
American cuisine. For example, dishes
brought by Italian, German, Irish,
Chinese, and Mexican immigrants
have created unique flavors in
American cuisine.
