Food ensures the continuation of the body in terms of meeting individual needs. This organismic perspective of food constitutes the general acceptance of its treatment as a gastronomic phenomenon. However, the process in which food turns into something desired by the individual reveals the importance of evaluating it on social and historical grounds. Although food is perceived in certain regularities of the things to be consumed in terms of its objective dimension, the set of memories and experiences associated with it requires looking at food in terms of its social ground. The food in the memories turns into the food in the minds in an indirect way. In this case, it also enables the formation of some narratives on food in the collective memory. Therefore, the evaluation of food in the context of collective memory helps to benefit from the explanations of the phenomenological theory, especially in the context of its static and dynamic structures on social and historical shaping. In this article, it has been tried to develop a sociological perspective on food, with a special focus on ashura. the items here have helped in analyzing how the food is formed in the collective memory, how the social and historical situation is formed in terms of its static and dynamic structure through the food in the context of this collective memory and ultimately what kind of differentiation between social groups all this opens the door to. The conclusion reached in this article is that, in this sense, ashura, as a dish, takes place in the collective memories of social groups in different ways. This article is a preliminary study that focuses on the micro level of ashura in order to make social and historical comparisons of studies on food
