The History of Recipes
Experts have tracked the existance of recipes back into the far past, certainly as far back into history as pharonic Egypt, and quite possibly further than that. In practice though, in the main part, these old records were just basic pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for food preparation.
Interestingly, the oldest recipe discovered so far, according to historians is a collection of ancient tablets in the Sumerian language which describe 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 drank it feel blissful and exhilarated. Closer to modern times, we have a couple of recipe books which were published in the fourteenth century : one book entitled `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary named `Curye on Inglish`. The titles are a little misleading though, these books have no connection with the indian curry that is familiar to us all today, but instead descriptions of the types of meals on the tables of the nobility of that period. During the succeeding few hundred years, the rich families of Wesstern Europe competed to serve the most extravagent meals, and because of this the best chefs and their collection of recipes were much in demand. Notwithstanding that, it wasn`t until the 1800s that fine cooking and recipe collections became popular. Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Farmer in the USA, devoted much of their lives to assembling, testing, and publishing recipes common in their social group. Like it or not, the introduction of television brings us TV cooks and the demand for the accompanying recipe books. Which brings us neatly to the present day and the internet revolution, permitting everyone to access massive numbers of recipes just like those on this site. |
