The History of Recipes
We can trace the history of meal recipes back into ancient history, in truth as far as the early Egyptians, and quite possibly further than that. In practice though, in the main part, these early records were just primitive hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for food preparation.
Fascinatingly, the oldest recipe discovered, according to food historians are a few 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 having made anyone who tried it feel blissful. Moving our culinary historical trip onwards, we have a couple of interesting recipe books published in the 1300s : a cookery book published under the title `Forme of Cury`, and another titled `Curye on Inglish`. The titles are somewhat misleading tho`, they have no connection with the curry that is familiar to us all today, but instead accounts of the types of food enjoyed by the rich and wealthy people of that period. In the 15th century, knights returning from the crusades brought us many foods and spices from the holy lands, such as parsley, basil and rosemary. These new foods and tastes was responsible for an explosion in manuscripts on food, most of which are now in private cookery archives. Over the following few centuries, the rich families of Europe competed with each other to lay on the most extravagent banquests, and consequentially cooks and their collection of recipes were at a premium. However, it was during the 19th century that formal cookery and recipe books became popular. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, spent years to assembling, trying out, and writing down recipes that were common in the better off homes of the day. The arrival of TV brought us cooking programs and the demand for the spin-off recipe books. Which brings us neatly up to date and the invention of computers and the internet, allowing everyone to access thousands of recipes just like those on sites such as the one you are reading now. |
