The History of Recipes
Recipes as an idea can be traced back into ancient history, in fact as far back as the Egyptians, and maybe further still. Having said that, sadly, these early records were just very basic pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing food.
Fascinatingly, the oldest recipe discovered so far, according to food historians are some ancient tablets in Sumerian which recount the baking of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making drinkers feel blissful. As our culinary historical trip moves to more modern times we find two recipe books which date from the fourteenth century : a book titled `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary titled `Curye on Inglish`. Despite their titles, these have no connection with the curry that is popular today, but rather accounts of the types of meals eaten by the rich people of that time. Over the following few centuries, the powerful and rich houses competed to offer the most exotic meals, and because of this the best chefs and their collection of recipes could command a high salary. However, it wasn`t until the 1800s that formal cookery and recipe collections really came of age. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Farmer in the US, dedicated years of their lives to assembling, trying out, and publishing recipes of the day. When we get to the 1900s, cook books were in great demand, mostly due to higher levels of literacy, people having increased free time and having more money to spend. |
