The History of Recipes

Transcribed cooking instructions as an idea can be tracked back into antiquity, at least as far back as early Egypt, and possibly even further. Interesting though that maybe, in the main part, these old cookbooks were just very basic hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing meals.

Fascinatingly, the oldest recipe discovered so far, according to food historians is a collection of stone tablets in the Sumerian language which show the preparation of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as having made people feel blissful and exhilarated.

Moving our culinary historical trip onwards, there are two recipe books which appeared in the 1300s ; a cookery book entitled `Forme of Cury`, and another named `Curye on Inglish`. Although the titles sound familiar, these are nothing to do with the spicy food that is familiar to us all today, but instead descriptions of the types of food on the tables of the rich.

Over the following few centuries, the powerful families of Europe competed to serve up the most exotic meals, and because of this cooks and their recipe collections were at a premium. Even so, it wasn`t until the 1800s the formal cooking and recipe books rose to prominence. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Farmer in the USA, spent years to assembling, testing, and publishing recipes to allow everyone to enjoy them.

The arrival of TV brought us TV cooks and the recipe books that accompanied them.

Which brings us neatly up to date and the invention of the internet, allowing us all to access thousands of recipes like those on this site.
