Abstract

In Mexico exists a great number of indigenous communities of pre-hispanic origin. In the State of Michoacan, which possesses a great cultural richness, the p’urhépecha culture stands out. Be- cause of the state’s richness, great part of its economy is based on national and international tourism. For this reason, a series of studies were realized in order to take further advantage of this situation. The result was the event called “Meeting of Michoacan’s traditional cooking”, which has taken place every year since 2004. In this article, the justification of the above mentioned studies is shown, as well as its first conclusions and the results of the gastronomic event.
