Armando Scannone’s Mi Cocina transformed Venezuelan gastronomy from a fluid set of regional oral traditions into a rigid, standardized national symbol. By meticulously documenting the recipes of the Caracas elite and their domestic workers, he preserved the technical history of the cuisine but also inadvertently marginalized regional variations that did not fit the "Caracas standard."
