The History of Recipes
Transcribed cooking instructions as an idea can be found way back into antiquity, in truth as far as pharonic Egypt, and quite possibly further than that. However, mostly, these old cook books were just primitive hieroglyphic recipes for preparing food.
Interestingly, the oldest recipe in existence, according to experts are a few 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 having made anyone who drank it feel exhilarated. As our culinary historical trip moves on a few more years we find a couple of interesting books dating from the 1300s - a recipe book published under the title `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary named `Curye on Inglish`. The titles are somewhat misleading tho`, these are unconnected to the curry that is familiar to us all today, but instead accounts of the types of food enjoyed by the rich and powerful of those days. During the succeeding few hundred years, the powerful and wealthy competed with each other to serve up the most exotic banquets, and as a consequence, cooks and their recipes became highly prized. However, it wasn`t until the 19th century that formal cookery and recipe books rose to prominence. Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Farmer in the US, dedicated their lives to assembling, testing, and publishing recipes common in their social group. Like it or not, the introduction of television gave us cooking programs and the accompanying recipe books. Which brings us neatly to the present day and the invention of the internet, permitting everyone to search through thousands of recipes just like those on this web site. |
