The History of Recipes
We can read the history of meal recipes far back into the distant past, in truth as far back into recorded history as the ancient Egyptians, and possibly even further than that. In practice though, generally, these old recipes were just primitive pictorial instructions for food preparation.
In an interesting twist, the most ancient recipe in existence, according to food historians are some tablets in Sumerian which show the making 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 tried it feel blissful. Continuing our culinary historical journey, there are two interesting cookery books dating from the 1300s ; a cookery book titled `Forme of Cury`, and another named `Curye on Inglish`. The titles are a little misleading though, these are unconnected to the indian curry that is familiar to us all today, but instead recipes for the types of meals enjoyed by the rich and powerful of that time. Over the succeeding few hundred years, the powerful families of the West tried to lay on the most exotic banquets, and as a consequence, chefs and their recipe collections could command a high salary. Notwithstanding that, it wasn`t until the nineteenth century that fine cooking and recipe books reached a high level of popularity. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Merritt Farmer in the USA, dedicated their lives to collecting, trying out, and recording recipes of the day. When we get to the twentieth century, recipe books are increasing in popularity due to more people being able to read, increased leisure time and having more money to spend. The TV revolution brought us celebrity chefs and the accompanying recipe books. And that pretty much brings us to the present day and the internet revolution, permitting everybody to search through thousands of recipes such as those found on sites such as the one you are reading now. |
