Dataset Card for Global Christmas Recipes

Dataset Summary

This dataset contains 500 unique traditional and modern Christmas/holiday recipes from around the world (over 80 countries and regions represented). Each entry includes structured details perfect for AI training: dish name, country of origin, category (Main, Dessert, Side, Drink, etc.), description, comma-separated ingredients, step-by-step instructions, prep/cook times, servings, and dietary tags (e.g., vegetarian, gluten-free, vegan).

Created in December 2025, it incorporates authentic cultural traditions plus emerging trends (e.g., viral Dubai pistachio chocolate, plant-based options, hot honey glazes).

Ideal for:

Recipe generation/fine-tuning LLMs
Cross-cultural food analysis
Recommendation systems
Multimodal extensions (pair with image generation)
Classification tasks (predict country from ingredients, dietary filtering)

Supported Tasks and Leaderboards

Text Generation: Generate recipes from prompts (e.g., "Christmas dessert from Italy").
Sequence-to-Sequence: Ingredients/instructions translation or adaptation.
Classification: Predict category, country, or dietary tags.
No official leaderboard yet—community contributions welcome!

Languages

Primarily English, with dish names reflecting original cultures.

Dataset Creation

Curation Rationale

Curated to fill a gap—no large-scale, structured global Christmas recipe dataset existed on Hugging Face/Kaggle as of 2025. Focuses on diversity, authenticity, and utility for modern AI tasks.

Source Data

Based on public-domain knowledge of worldwide Christmas food traditions, cross-referenced with cultural sources. Includes timeless classics and 2025 trends (e.g., sustainable/viral items).

Annotations

Manual curation with structured formatting for consistency.

Personal and Sensitive Information

None—purely culinary data.

Considerations for Using the Data

Social Impact of Dataset

Promotes cultural appreciation and diversity in food traditions. Encourages inclusive holiday celebrations.

Discussion of Biases

Western/European traditions slightly over-represented due to available sources.
Modern trends (e.g., KFC in Japan) included for completeness.
Dietary tags are indicative, not exhaustive (real allergies require verification).

Other Known Limitations

Recipes are representative, not exhaustive regional variations.
Times/servings are averages—adjust for personal needs.
No nutritional data (can be extended).
