The History of Recipes
Experts have tracked the existance of recipes back into history, at least as far back into history as the ancient Egyptians, and quite possibly further than that. Interesting though that is, sadly, these old cookbooks were just primitive hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for food preparation.
Interestingly, the oldest recipe discovered so far, according to food historians is a series of tablets in the Sumerian language which show the making of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as having made anyone who tried it feel `wonderful`. Closer to modern times, there are some recipe books which date from the fourteenth century : a book called `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary named `Curye on Inglish`. The titles are somewhat misleading tho`, these books are unconnected to the curry that we all know today, but rather accounts of the types of food on the menues of the rich and wealthy people of that time. During the succeeding few hundred years, the wealthy families of Wesstern Europe competed with each other to offer the most exotic banquets, and because of this the best chefs and their collection of recipes could command a high salary. However, it wasn`t until the nineteenth century that formal cookery and recipe books really came of age. Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, devoted their lives to collecting, verifying, and recording recipes to help cooks of their time. Like it or not, the introduction of television brought us TV cookery programs and the accompanying recipe books. Which pretty much brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, allowing everybody to access thousands of recipes such as those found on our web site. |
