dc.description.extractDiet is one of the spheres that best shows us how a society operates and changes. That’s why a récipe book is always full of discourses. Nothing in cookbooks is superficial, gratuitous, or innocent. Studying them is like a compass, a time capsule that helps us identify ways the connections between people and the food they consume develop and understand cultural behavior. They are exercises in literary prose, and we can find in them not only guides about how to cook, but also a variety of socio-political and cultural discourses that show us an entire contextual analysis. For example, the first cookbooks in Mexico were written with nationalist aims at a time when people were seeking independence. Almost two centuries later, cookbooks are being written to document acts of extreme violence, such as forced disappearance and gender-based violence. The few materials of this kind that exist until now attempt to dismantle hegemonic discourses that were implanted years ago, breaking with the canon and the notion people have about cookbooks. Therefore, in this article, the aim is to analyze how the argument has changed in cookbooks, mainly those created in Mexico in the midnineteenth century and the break in the discourse found in those of the first quarter of the twenty-first century.
