The History of Recipes
Historians have traced the existence of recipes back into the distant past, certainly as far back into recorded history as early Egypt, and possibly even further than that. Interesting though that is, in the main part, these old cook books were just simple pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing food.
Fascinatingly, the oldest recipe found, according to food historians is a series of tablets in the Sumerian language describing 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 are a couple of recipe books which appeared in the 14th Century : a cookery book called `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary called `Curye on Inglish`. The titles are somewhat misleading tho`, they have no connection with the indian curry that is popular today, but rather descriptions of the types of meals on the menus of the nobility of that period. In the 15th century, the Crusaders brought back a variety of foods and herbs from the East, such as basil and rosemary. These new foods and tastes was responsible for an explosion in recipe books, many of which still exist in academic collections. Over the following few centuries, the powerful families of Wesstern Europe competed to serve the most exotic meals, and as a result cooks and their collection of recipes were at a premium. However, it was during the 19th century that cookery and recipe collections really came of age. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Merritt Farmer in the USA, dedicated the best years of their lives to collecting, trying out, and recording recipes of the day. By the arrival of the twentieth century, recipe publications were highly popular mostly as a result of increased literacy, people having more spare time and having more money to spend. The introduction of television brought us TV cooks and the recipe books that accompanied them. And that pretty much brings us to the present day and the invention of the internet, permitting everybody to search through massive numbers of recipes like the ones you can find on our site. |
We hope you enjoy this Char Broiled Shrimp recipe.
