The History of Recipes
It is actually possible to trace the history of recipes far back into history, at least as far back as the Egyptians, and maybe even further. In practice though, mostly, these old recipes were just very simple pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for meal preparation.
Fascinatingly, the oldest recipe discovered, according to experts in ancient history is a collection of ancient 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 tried it feel blissful. As our culinary historical trip moves to more modern times we have two interesting books which were published in the 14th Century ; a book entitled `Forme of Cury`, and another entitled `Curye on Inglish`. Surprisingly, these two books have no connection with the indian curry that appears on menues today, but rather descriptions of the types of meals enjoyed by the nobility of that time. Over the following few centuries, the rich families of the West competed with each other to serve up the most extravagent banquests, and consequentially the best cooks and their recipe collections increased in prestige. Nevertheless, it was during the 1800s that fine cooking and recipe publications rose to prominence. Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, spent years to assembling, testing, and recording recipes of the day. By the arrival of the twentieth century, cooking publications were in high demand, as a result of better eduction, more leisure time and a general increase in wealth. |
