Food has always been one of the most crucial necessities in the lives of humans and food and cooking are associated with all cultures and communities irrespective of geographical boundaries, races, and ethnicities. The readings illustrate that most of the objects which have been found from the archaeology sites are somehow related to food, such as pots, platters, spoons, and any kind of wares (Ferguson 1992 and Sep.9, Lecture). These discoveries enable archaeologists to predict the kind of food people ate and would provide important insights into the daily lives of these ancient cultures and communities. Therefore, the study of social groups specifically includes the culinary habits, styles, and techniques in addition to the cutlery and cookery items used. Food culture and tradition enable people to develop insight regarding the other related and preliminary activities of humans including planting, hunting, their customs, or even how the social structures behave. To further elucidate the subject, a dessert can be used to depict the Western-style meal in the United States of America, since, in most cultures, a meal is considered concluded, only after a relishing dessert. The importance, preference, and value of desserts in everyday meals would help me to examine the integration or acculturation of America along with other cultures with regard to the evolution of recipes over time. This paper aims to analyze the evolution and acculturation of distinct cultures and communities by studying the evolution and integration of recipes of two different cultures. After reading the recipes from the 19th century, it is very obvious to see that the authors of these cookbooks are aimed at female readers, especially the white middle-class housewives. Speaking of recipes, the initial authors generally addressed women in their books by asserting that “no woman who regards her own health or that of her family should ever allow a dumpling or paste pudding to be boiled in her house” (Hale 1841:77) and “If your husband brings home company when you are unprepared” (Child 1833:62). From the lectures and the readings (Oct. 12, Lecture), we know that women at that time had to take care of pretty much all the housework while the men were working outside, which means that it was their responsibility to keep the dishes delicious and healthy for their family. Almost all women were required to learn culinary art unless their mother had taught her how to cook well, and that was probably why cookbooks were very popular at that time. Research confirms that the concept of “work-discipline” enabled individuals to create the “self-maintaining individual”, “according to a standard and is the chief way in which a capitalist society maintained stability” and this “work discipline was achieved through eating habits, personal cleanliness, and reading and speaking habits (Leone & Potter, 1994). Leone and Potter (1994) argue that “one of the ways in which work discipline was created and sustained” is “dining etiquette”. In my opinion, sometimes when women had nothing to do at home, cooking and inventing new dishes may be considered as a very interesting entertainment to do and finally became one of their hobbies. Unlike today’s dessert cookbooks, which are full of colorful and palatable pictures, the ancient coo
