Rice & Coriander Sensorial re-creations of home through food: Ecuadorians in a northern Spanish city Forced Migration Online (24276783) Migration, asylum and refugee law FORCED MIGRATION ONLINE FOOD NEEDS MIGRANTS INTEGRATION CULTURE Food is an important and specific kind of material culture. It is literally embodied and present in an everyday basis. Familiar food can play an important role in the migratory context; both at a public visible level and also, and overall, in the intimate domain of the domestic sphere and the mundane everyday. As migration involves discontinuity with the known human, cultural and material environment, food practices and preferences can be used as a strategy to, in a sensorial way, fight off the sense of fragmentation triggered by migration. This paper explores these issues in the specific context of Ecuadorian migrants in the northern Spanish city of Santander, based on interviews with 38 such migrants. 2026-09-30T11:44:29Z Text Online resource 10.25446/oxford.33352851.v1 https://figshare.com/articles/online_resource/Rice_Coriander_Sensorial_re-creations_of_home_through_food_Ecuadorians_in_a_northern_Spanish_city/33352851 CC BY-NC-ND 4.0
