The History of Recipes
It is possible to follow the history of meal recipes far back into history, at least as far back into history as the ancient Egyptians, and maybe further still. Interesting though that is, these, early recipes were just basic hieroglyphic recipes for preparing meals.
In fact, the oldest recipe found, according to academics are some tablets in the Sumerian language which describe the baking of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making people feel blissful and exhilarated. Later, we find some recipe books which date from the 14th Century - a cookery book titled `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary named `Curye on Inglish`. The titles are somewhat misleading tho`, these books are unconnected to the indian food that is familiar to us all today, but instead accounts of the types of meals enjoyed by the rich people of that time. For the decades that followed, the powerful and rich houses competed with each other to offer the most exotic banquets, and as a result the best cooks and their recipes were at a premium. However, it wasn`t until the nineteenth century that haute cuisine and recipe books rose to prominence. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, spent years to collecting, trying out, and recording recipes to help cooks of their time. By the time we get to the 20th century, cook books were in great demand, mostly due to increased literacy, people having more spare time and having more disposable income. The arrival of television gave us TV cookery programs and the accompanying recipe books. And that neatly brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, permitting everybody to access thousands of recipes such as those found on sites such as this. |
