The History of Recipes
Written cooking instructions as a concept can be found far back into ancient history, in fact as far back into history as ancient Egypt, and potentially, even further back. Interesting though that is, sadly, these early records were just basic pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing meals.
Fascinatingly, the most ancient recipe discovered so far, according to historians is a collection of tablets in Sumerian 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 having made those who drank it feel `exhilarated, wonderful and blissful`. As our culinary historical trip moves to more modern times there were some books which date from the fourteenth century - one book entitled `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary named `Curye on Inglish`. Despite their titles, these books are not about the spicy food that is familiar to us all today, but rather accounts of the types of food prepared by the chefs of the rich and wealthy people of that time. Over the following few centuries, the rich and powerful families of the West strove to serve the most exotic meals, and because of this the best chefs and their recipes were much in demand. However, it wasn`t until the nineteenth century that cooking and recipe collections became really popular. Mrs Beeton in the UK, and Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, spent years to collating, verifying, and publishing recipes that were common in the better off homes of the day. When we get to the 1900s, cookery books were greatly in demand mostly due to higher levels of literacy, people having increased spare time and having more money. The arrival of TV gave us TV chefs and the recipe books that accompanied them. Which pretty much brings us up to date and the invention of the internet, allowing everyone to access massive numbers of recipes like those on the site you are now reading. |
