The History of Recipes

It is quite feasible to follow the history of transcribed cooking instructions way back into distant history, at least as far back into history as the ancient Egyptians, and possibly even further than that. However, generally, these old cookbooks were just primitive pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for meal preparation.

Interestingly, the oldest recipe in existence, according to experts is a collection of ancient tablets in the Sumerian language which recount 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 anyone who drank it feel blissful.

Moving on, there were some recipe books dating from the 14th Century - a recipe book entitled `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary named `Curye on Inglish`. Perhaps surprisingly, they have no connection with the indian food that appears on menues today, but instead recipes for the types of food on the menues of the upper classes of that period.

During the next few hundred years, the upper-class families of the West competed with each other to offer the most exotic banquets, and as a consequence, cooks and their recipes became highly prized. Nevertheless, it was during the 1800s that haute cuisine and recipe publications rose to prominence. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and Fannie Farmer in the US, dedicated their lives to collecting, verifying, and recording recipes of the day.

By the time we get to the twentieth century, cookery publications were in great demand, mostly due to more people being able to read, people having more free time and disposable income.
