Hello,

It looks like you have one too many parenthesis around the Rating entry.
org-global properties is supposed to be a list of cons cells. The below
should work:

#+BEGIN_SRC elisp
(setq org-global-properties '(("Cuisine_ALL". "- Indian Thai Vietnamese
Asian Chinese Israeli Italian American EastEuro Mexican French Persian
Austrian Greek Fusion")))
(add-to-list 'org-global-properties '("Rating_ALL". "- 1 2 3 4 5"))
#+END_SRC

Below is a version that worked for me with all three properties. I declare
the properties all in one list instead of adding them.

#+BEGIN_SRC elisp
(setq org-global-properties '(("Cuisine_ALL". "- Indian Thai Vietnamese
Asian Chinese Israeli Italian American EastEuro Mexican French Persian
Austrian Greek Fusion") ("Effort_ALL" . "0 0:10 0:20 0:30 1:00 2:00 3:00
4:00 6:00 8:00") ("Rating_ALL" . "- 1 2 3 4 5")))

 (setq org-capture-templates
  '(("f" "Food"
    entry
    (file+headline  "~/tmp/tmp.org" "Inbox")
    "* COOK %^{Recipe Name}
    :PROPERTIES:
    :ID: %(org-id-uuid)
    :Time: %^{minutes|-|10|15|30|60}
    :Effort: %^{Effort}p
    :Rating: %^{Rating}p
    :Cuisine: %^{Cuisine}p
    :END:
    "
    "Capture Template for food recipe")))
#+END_SRC

HTH,

Adrian
