New Mexico's rich culinary history is full of fascinating food traditions representing diverse cultures across the centuries. Ancestral Puebloan people, Spanish settlers and miners, cowboys and ranchers as well as pioneers along the Santa Fe Trail, railroad passengers and many others have all contributed New Mexico's melting pot. The Foodways of New Mexico program introduces the many cultures that have shaped our culinary history along with the iconic people who've stirred the pot, including Doña Tules, Fred Harvey, Billy the Kid, Georgia O'Keeffe and the contemporary farmers, chefs and restaurateurs who continually cook up new ways to evolve our food traditions.
