In a series of short videos filmed in landmark locations in Malta, Liam Gauci, the Director in charge of the ‘Taste History’ project, narrates stories uncovered about these fascinating islands while historic culinary delights are reproduced for the audience to try at home.
The first Season, consisting of 4 episodes, will be aired on www.Facebook.com/
With their wide variety of historical sites, ranging from Neolithic temples to walled cities and the more recent British period, the Maltese Islands have been described as a living museum, reflecting the legacy of the many cultures that ruled the Central Mediterranean and settled here throughout the centuries.
In Malta, history can be seen, touched, and experienced, and exploring these ancient islands is the closest one can get to traveling back in time. To make these experiences even more complete, Heritage Malta, with the support of the Malta Tourism Authority, has now added the senses of smell and taste to this enchanting journey in time.
Inspired by gastronomical references discovered in archives by Heritage Malta, stories of people come to life. Digging through this treasure-trove of information, it was evident that there was an opportunity to experience history in a different manner. Authentic recipes were re-created from the real-life stories which the ink-stained pages of history have been yearning to tell.
