The History of Recipes

Transcribed cooking instructions as a concept can be tracked back into antiquity, certainly as far back into history as pharonic Egypt, and possibly even further. Interesting though that maybe, these, old cook books were just very simple pictorial recipes for preparing meals.

In fact, the oldest recipe discovered, according to academics are a few tablets in Sumerian which show the preparation of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making anyone who tried it feel `wonderful`.

Later, we have a couple of interesting books from the fourteenth century : a cookery book published under the title `Forme of Cury`, and another named `Curye on Inglish`. Amusingly, these two books are unconnected to the indian curry that is popular today, but instead descriptions of the types of food cooked for the rich and powerful of that time.

Later, in the fifteenth century, knights returning from the crusades brought back many foods, spices and herbs from the holy land, including spices like basil and rosemary. These new spices and herbs created an eruption in recipe books, many of which are now in private collections.

For the decades that followed, the rich families of the West competed with each other to offer the best banquets, and consequentially the best chefs and their collection of recipes were at a premium. Even so, it was during the 19th century that cookery and recipe collections rose to prominence. Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Farmer in the US, devoted much of their lives to assembling, verifying, and publishing the recipes that were being prepared for the better households.

By the time we get to the 1900s, cooking publications were in great demand, due to better eduction, people having increased spare time and having more disposable income.

The arrival of television brings us TV cookery programs and the spin-off recipe books.

Which brings us neatly up to date and the invention of the internet, allowing everyone to access massive numbers of recipes just like those on our web site.
