The History of Cookbooks


Listen Later

Today, cookbooks are ubiquitous. Go to any bookstore and you can find dozens, if not hundreds, of different cookbooks. 

Search online, and you can find tens of thousands of websites that provide recipes. 

The story of cookbooks is fascinating because it mirrors the entire evolution of human civilization. Not just how we cook and prepare food, but also how we organize knowledge, and what we deem to be important.

Learn more about the history of cookbooks, how they have evolved over time, and how they reflect our culture on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
