The History of Recipes
Transcribed cooking instructions as an idea can be traced far back into the far past, in truth as far back into recorded history as the early Egyptians, and potentially, even further back. Having said that, in the main part, these old records were just primitive pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing meals.
In an interesting twist, the most ancient recipe found, according to Professor Solomon Katz, is a series of clay tablets in ancient Sumerian which describe 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 wonderful. Moving our culinary historical trip onwards, we find a couple of interesting cookery books dating from the fourteenth century - one book called `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary called `Curye on Inglish`. Don`t be fooled by the titles though, these books have no connection with the indian curry that is popular today, but rather descriptions of the types of food cooked for the nobility of the period. Over the next few hundred years, the families of Europe tried to serve the most exotic banquets, and as a result the best chefs and their recipes were greatly in demand. Notwithstanding that, it wasn`t until the 1800s that fine cooking and recipe collections really came of age. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Farmer in the US, spent years to collating, verifying, and publishing popular recipes of the day. The arrival of TV gave us celebrity chefs and the accompanying recipe books. Which brings us neatly up to date and the invention of computers and the internet, allowing everyone to access massive numbers of recipes like the ones you can find on our site. |
We hope you enjoy this 7 Or 9 Grain Bread (Abm) recipe.
