The History of Recipes
It is actually possible to trace the history of recipes far back into antiquity, at least as far into history as ancient Egypt, and quite possibly further than that. In practice though, sadly, these early records were just very simple hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing meals.
The truth of the matter is, the oldest recipe in existence, according to Professor Solomon Katz, are a few ancient tablets in ancient Sumerian which describe the preparation of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making anyone who tried it feel exhilarated and blissful. As we move on, we find some recipe books which appeared in the fourteenth century - a recipe book published under the title `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary entitled `Curye on Inglish`. The titles are a little misleading though, these have no connection with the spicy food that we all know today, but rather descriptions of the types of meals prepared by the chefs of the rich and powerful of that time. During the next few centuries, the powerful and wealthy houses competed to offer the most exotic meals, and as a consequence, the best cooks and their recipes were highly sought after. Notwithstanding that, it wasn`t until the 19th century the formal cooking and recipe books became really popular. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Farmer in the US, dedicated their lives to collecting, testing, and publishing the recipes that were being prepared for the better households. The revolution that is television gave us TV cookery programs and the recipe books that accompanied them. And that neatly brings us to the present day and the invention of the internet, permitting everyone to search through thousands of recipes such as those found on this site. |
We hope you enjoy this Apple Brie Cheese Omelet recipe.
