The History of Recipes
We can trace the history of meal recipes far back into distant history, certainly as far as the early Egyptians, and possibly even further. Interesting though that is, in the main part, these ancient records were just very basic hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for food preparation.
In fact, the oldest recipe discovered, according to Professor Solomon Katz, is a series of stone tablets in the Sumerian language which describe the preparation of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making anyone who drank it feel `wonderful`. As our culinary historical trip moves on a few more years there are a couple of interesting books which appeared in the 14th Century : one book published under the title `Forme of Cury`, and another called `Curye on Inglish`. Amusingly, these are nothing to do with the curry that is served today, but instead accounts of the types of meals on the menues of the rich people of the period. During the succeeding few hundred years, the powerful families of Wesstern Europe competed with each other to offer the most exotic meals, and because of this the best cooks and their collection of recipes were greatly in demand. Even so, it wasn`t until the 1800s that formal cookery and recipe publications reached a high level of popularity. Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, dedicated their lives to assembling, trying out, and writing down recipes common in their social group. Like it or not, the introduction of television brought us TV cookery programs and the recipe books that accompanied them. Which pretty much brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, allowing us all to search through thousands of recipes just like those on sites such as this. |
