To dig a bit into the past, I went to the large Public Library and the Archives of the Haute Savoie in Annecy. The oldest text I could find was a facsimile of Maître Chiquart’s Du Fait de Cuisine. The original of this manuscript, dated 1420, was part of the library of Bishop Supersaxo and his son Georges, and is now resting in the Bibliothèque Cantonale du Valais in Sion, Switzerland.
