The History of Recipes
Written cooking instructions as an idea can be found far back into the far past, certainly as far into history as ancient Egypt, and maybe further still. In practice though, these, early cookbooks were just very basic pictorial recipes for meal preparation.
In an interesting twist, the oldest recipe in existence, according to historians is a series of ancient 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 anyone who tried it feel exhilarated and blissful. Moving our culinary historical trip onwards, we find a couple of interesting recipe books which appeared in the 14th Century : one book called `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary called `Curye on Inglish`. Despite their titles, these books are nothing to do with the curry that appears on menues today, but instead descriptions of the types of meals eaten by the rich people of the period. Over the next few hundred years, the families of Europe competed with each other to lay on the most exotic meals, and as a consequence, the best cooks and their collection of recipes were greatly in demand. However, it wasn`t until the 1800s that formal cookery and recipe publications became popular. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Farmer in the US, dedicated years of their lives to collating, testing, and recording recipes for their fellow cooks to enjoy. The arrival of TV gave us cooking programs and the recipe books that accompanied them. And that neatly brings us to the present day and the internet revolution, allowing everyone to search through thousands of recipes like those on this web site. |
