The History of Recipes
It is quite feasible to follow the history of recipes back into the far past, in fact as far back into history as ancient Egypt, and maybe even further. However, these, ancient recipes were just very basic pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for food preparation.
Interestingly, the most ancient recipe discovered, according to food historians are some ancient tablets in ancient Sumerian which show 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 drinkers feel exhilarated. Moving on, we have some books which appeared in the 1300s - a book titled `Forme of Cury`, and another entitled `Curye on Inglish`. Perhaps surprisingly, they are nothing to do with the indian food that we all know today, but instead recipes for the types of meals on the tables of the rich and wealthy people of that time. During the next few hundred years, the rich families of Wesstern Europe strove to serve up the most exotic meals, and consequentially chefs and their recipes could command a high salary. Nevertheless, it was during the 1800s that haute cuisine and recipe books became popular. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and Fannie Farmer in the US, dedicated years of their lives to collating, testing, and writing down recipes to help cooks of their time. Like it or not, the introduction of TV brings us TV chefs and the recipe books that accompanied them. And that brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, allowing everybody to search through thousands of recipes like the ones you can find on this site. |
