The History of Recipes
It is actually possible to trace the history of written cooking instructions way back into antiquity, in truth as far back as pharonic Egypt, and maybe even further. However, sadly, these ancient cook books were just very basic hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing food.
The truth of the matter is, the most ancient recipe discovered, according to experts in ancient history is a collection of clay tablets in ancient Sumerian 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 having made anyone who drank it feel `wonderful`. Moving on, there were two interesting recipe books which were published in the 1300s : a book entitled `Forme of Cury`, and another called `Curye on Inglish`. Surprisingly, these books are not about the indian curry that appears on menues today, but instead accounts of the types of food served to the nobility of the period. During the following few centuries, the rich and powerful families of Wesstern Europe tried to offer the most extravagent meals, and consequentially chefs and their collection of recipes could command a high salary. Nevertheless, it wasn`t until the nineteenth century that cookery and recipe publications became popular. Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, dedicated the best years of their lives to collating, trying out, and publishing recipes to allow everyone to enjoy them. By the advent of the 1900s, cookery books were starting to become popular mostly as a result of better eduction, leisure time and a general increase in wealth. |
