A Philosophy of Recipes | Food Ontology | Andrea Borghini | EP. 5 Food Series

This conversation is part of the series 'The Philosophy, Science, & Aesthetics of Food' ('Dare to know!' Philosophy Podcast). Today we are joined by Andrea Borghini. Andrea Borghini is the Associate Professor of Philosophy at the University of Milan and Director of Culinary Mind, an International Research Center for the Philosophy of Food. In his work, he develops new theoretical tools to rethink how we speak, structure, sense, and feel about food, eating, and culinary culture. Professor Borghini’s specific topics of research include hunger and appetite, recipes, food and space, and biodiversity. His research sits at the intersection of theory, value, and practice.
