Recipe Details
Evidence
"Nearly all texts, apart from transcriptions and some very modern (20th-century) ones, are written in variations of the Arabic script."
Remarks
The author identifies a predominant literary culture in the Ottoman Empire where Turkish, Arabic, and Persian texts were almost exclusively written in variations of the Arabic script (p. 342). This consistency is noted across the majority of the 1162 manuscripts in the described collections, with rare exceptions such as Or. 1129(G) which uses Hebrew script (p. 342).
