Muḥammad bin al-Ḥasan bin Muḥammad bin al-Karīm al-Baghdādī (Arabic:محمد بن الحسن بن محمد بن الكريم البغدادي;d. 1239), usually called simplyal-Baghdadi, was the compiler of an earlyArab cookbook of theAbbasid period,Kitāb al-Ṭabīḫ (كتاب الطبيخ;The Book of Dishes), written in 1226. The original book contained 160 recipes, and 260 recipes were later added.

The only original manuscript of Al-Baghdadi's book survives atSüleymaniye Library inIstanbul,Turkey, and according toCharles Perry, "for centuries, it had been the favorite cook-book of the Turks". Further recipes had been added to the original by Turkish compilers at an unknown date and retitled asKitâbü’l-Vasfi’l-Et‘ime el-Mu‘tâde, with two of its known three copies found at theTopkapı Palace Library. Eventually, Muhammad ibn Mahmud al-Shirwani, the physician of SultanMurad II, prepared aTurkish translation of the book adding around 70 contemporary recipes. This translation was published in modern Turkish in 2005,^[1] whereas a modern Turkish translation of the original book (co-edited by Charles Perry) was published in 2009.^[2]
