Summary: | This article analyses how food, recipes, and techniques and manners introduced as foreign were integrated in eighteenth-century German cookbooks.

It claims that cookbooks should be considered as topographies of the table and presents the Holy Roman Empire as a particularly rich field of study for history of circulation in the early modern world. |
