“Cookbooks are windows into history—markers of class and caste, documents of daily life, and snapshots of regional and cultural identity at particular moments in time. Early cookbooks communicated in “a folksy, imprecise manner until the Industrial Revolution of the 1800s,” when standard (or metric) measurement became de rigueur.“

“Cooking in the Archives: Updating Early Modern Recipes (1600-1800) in a Modern Kitchen is a public food history project. Cooking in the Archives sets out to find, cook, and discuss recipes from cookbooks produced between 1600 and 1800. This project is situated at the intersection between the practice of modern cooking and the history of early modern manuscript and printed recipe books.“

“Cooking in the Archives connects readers to an accessible archive of historical recipes. We believe that these historical recipes belong in the modern kitchen – that they can and should be read and enacted as instructions, as well as studied as archival texts from a specific historical period. After all, what are recipes if not primarily instructions for cooking?”

“Every academic year, hundreds of freshies climb up the historic stairs of Rizal Hall to attend their General Education (GE) subjects in the College of Arts and Sciences (CAS). Rizal Hall, more commonly known as RH, is located along Padre Faura Street in Ermita, Manila, surrounded by the Department of Justice (DOJ) and the Supreme Court (SC), equally historic buildings, as is the Philippine General Hospital (PGH), which is right across the street.”
