Cornish cuisine encompasses the cooking styles, traditions and recipes associated with Cornwall and the Cornish people. It has been heavily influenced by the geography of the county as well as its social history.
Cornwall being a peninsula surrounded by historically well-stocked seas, with a significant fishing industry, has meant that fish dishes form a major part of the historical and modern recipes in Cornwall. The iconic dish of Cornwall,[1] the pasty, has its roots in another historical industry within the county, this being mining.
Certain Cornish food dishes have been granted protected geographical status under European Union law, ensuring that they can only be labelled and marketed as "Cornish" if they are produced and mainly sourced within Cornwall.[2] The Cornwall Food and Drink Festival promotes Cornish cuisine and produce. A major theme is the use of game foods as well as fish. A number of high-profile Cornish restaurants and hotels use game as part of their menu. This is highlighted at the Cornwall Food and Drink Festival by the Magnificent Seven Dinner, put on by seven of the best chefs in Cornwall.[3]
Larger commercial producers of characteristically Cornish products include the bakers, famously Warrens Bakery, and the creameries Davidstow Creamery and A. E. Rodda & Son of Scorrier.
