The History of Recipes
We are able to trace the history of `recipes` back into antiquity, at least as far as the ancient Egyptians, and quite possibly further than that. Having said that, these, ancient recipes were just simple pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing food.
The truth of the matter is, the oldest recipe found, according to experts are a few ancient tablets in ancient Sumerian 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 anyone who drank it feel blissful and exhilarated. As we move on, there are two interesting books which date from the fourteenth century - a recipe book published under the title `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary entitled `Curye on Inglish`. Don`t be fooled by the titles though, these two books are not about the indian food that is served today, but instead accounts of the types of meals on the tables of the rich and wealthy people of that period. Later, in the fifteenth century, the Crusaders brought back many spices and herbs from the East, including spices like coriander, parsley, and basil. These new culinary innovations led to an increase in recipe manuscripts, the majority of which are now in private cookery archives. During the next few centuries, the wealthy families of the West competed with each other to serve the most exotic banquets, and as a result the best chefs and their recipes became highly prized. Notwithstanding that, it was during the nineteenth century that haute cuisine and cookery books rose to prominence. Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Merritt Farmer in the USA, dedicated years of their lives to collecting, verifying, and recording the recipes of their peers. By the advent of the 20th century, cooking books were in high demand, mostly due to increased literacy, people having increased free time and disposable income. The revolution that is television brought us cooking programs and the accompanying recipe books. Which pretty much brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, permitting us all to search through massive numbers of recipes such as those found on our web site. |
