recipe

recipe: [14] Recipe originated as the imperative form of Latin recipere ‘receive, take’ (source of English receive). It was commonly used in Latin, and occasionally English, lists of ingredients for medicines and dishes (as in ‘Take three eggs …’), and by the end of the 16th century it was being applied to the medical formulae themselves. Its modern gastronomic sense did not emerge until the mid-18th century.

recipe（食谱）：医生处方中的第一个字

古代西方医生在开处方时，第一个字通常是拉丁语recipe，意思是take（服用），后来缩写为Rx，并且R的最后一笔和x的第一笔重合。学过西医的中国医生在开处方时也是这样写的，不信可以翻开自己看病时医生开的处方单看看。因此，单词recipe在英语中原本表示“处方”，到了17世纪时逐渐用来表示“食谱”，更常用prescription来表示“处方”。不过，从医生处方的第一个字上依然能看出recipe的初始含义。
