The History of Recipes
Experts have tracked the existance of recipes back into antiquity, certainly as far back as the Egyptians, and maybe further still. Having said that, in the main part, these early records were just primitive hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing meals.
Interestingly, the oldest recipe discovered, according to food historians are some clay tablets in 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 `wonderful`. Closer to modern times, there are two interesting books from the 14th Century - a book titled `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary titled `Curye on Inglish`. Perhaps surprisingly, these two books have no connection with the indian food that we all know today, but rather recipes for the types of meals on the tables of the upper classes of that period. In the fifteenth century, the Crusaders brought back many foods, spices and herbs from the holy land, including coriander, basil and rosemary. These new foods and spices led to an outbreak in recipe manuscripts, most of which still exist in private libraries. During the succeeding few hundred years, the powerful families of Europe competed with each other to serve the best banquets, and consequentially the best cooks and their recipes could command a high salary. Nevertheless, it was during the 1800s that haute cuisine and recipe books really came of age. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, spent years to collating, testing, and writing down popular recipes of the day. Like it or not, the introduction of television brought us cooking programs and the spin-off recipe books. Which brings us neatly up to date and the invention of computers and the internet, permitting everybody to access thousands of recipes like those on this site. |
