Main Article Content
Abstract
Culture is shaped by the habits, preferences and experiences of the society over the years. Culinary culture is also important. Migrations allow the synthesis of two different societies. Most of the time, the culinary culture that comes with immigration causes the settlement to be enriched by being included in the cuisine. Purpose of the research; With the 1923 population exchange, it is to determine to what extent the immigrants who came from Crete in the late 1800s carried the culinary culture to the places where they settled. In the study, the participants were determined by the purposeful sampling method. Qualitative research, snowball and chain sampling were used, and interviews were conducted with 14 participants. In order to verify the data obtained from the interviews, document analysis and triangulation were made. After the descriptive and content analysis, it was determined that 75% of the people who came from Crete continued their culinary culture. After the analyzes, the general characteristics of the Cretan cuisine were determined, the changes it provided to the settlement and the situations that caused it were determined. Identifications were made about the situations that caused the changes. Suggestions have been made to prevent it from being forgotten and to use it in cultural tourism.
