The History of Recipes
Academics have traced the existance of recipes back into antiquity, in truth as far as the early Egyptians, and potentially, even further back. In practice though, mostly, these ancient records were just very simple pictorial instructions for preparing meals.
Interestingly, the most ancient recipe found, according to food historians are a few clay tablets in the Sumerian language describing the making of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making those who drank it feel `blissful`. As our culinary historical trip moves on a few more years there are two interesting cookery books from the fourteenth century ; a book published under the title `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary called `Curye on Inglish`. The titles are a little misleading though, they are not about the curry that is familiar to us all today, but rather recipes for the types of food on the tables of the rich and wealthy people of the time. During the succeeding few hundred years, the powerful families of Europe tried to lay on the best banquets, and as a result the best chefs and their recipe collections could command a high salary. Notwithstanding that, it was during the nineteenth century that formal cookery and recipe books became really popular. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, dedicated the best years of their lives to collecting, testing, and recording the recipes of their peers. By the arrival of the 20th century, recipe publications were increasing in popularity due to increased literacy, people having increased spare time and having more money to spend. |
