The History of Recipes
Recipes as an idea can be observed far back into the far past, in truth as far into history as early Egypt, and possibly even further. Having said that, generally, these ancient recipes were just very simple pictorial instructions for preparing food.
Interestingly, the most ancient recipe discovered, according to food historians are some tablets in ancient Sumerian which show 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 drinkers feel `blissful`. As our culinary historical trip moves on a few more years there are two books dating from the 1300s - a cookery book titled `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary entitled `Curye on Inglish`. Don`t be fooled by the titles though, these books are not about the spicy food that is popular today, but instead descriptions of the types of food eaten by the upper classes of the period. In the fifteenth century, the Crusaders brought back many new foods, spices and herbs from the holy lands, including spices such as coriander, basil and rosemary. These new culinary innovations created an increase in books on cooking, many of which are kept safe in academic collections. During the succeeding few hundred years, the wealthy families of the West strove to lay on the most exotic banquets, and consequentially chefs and their recipes were at a premium. Notwithstanding that, it wasn`t until the nineteenth century that fine cooking and recipe collections reached a high level of popularity. Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Farmer in the US, dedicated their lives to assembling, verifying, and publishing recipes for their fellow cooks to enjoy. Like it or not, the introduction of television brought us celebrity TV chefs and the accompanying recipe books. Which pretty much brings us to the present day and the internet revolution, allowing everyone to search through thousands of recipes just like those on our site. |
