The History of Recipes
Academics have traced the existance of recipes way back into ancient history, at least as far back into history as ancient Egypt, and possibly even further than that. Having said that, generally, these old cookbooks were just primitive pictorial instructions for food preparation.
Interestingly, the oldest recipe in existence, according to food historians are some tablets in Sumerian which show the baking of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making anyone who drank it feel wonderful. As our culinary historical trip moves on a few more years we have some recipe books which appeared in the 14th Century : a book titled `Forme of Cury`, and another titled `Curye on Inglish`. Perhaps surprisingly, they are nothing to do with the indian food that we all know today, but instead accounts of the types of meals on the menus of the rich people of the period. In the fifteenth century, knights returning from the crusades brought us many foods and herbs from Arab countries, such as parsley, basil and rosemary. These new foods and spices was responsible for a surge in recipe publications, most of which are kept safe in private libraries. During the succeeding few hundred years, the wealthy families of Europe competed with each other to offer the most exotic meals, and as a consequence, cooks and their collection of recipes could command a high salary. Nevertheless, it was during the 1800s that haute cuisine and recipe books became popular. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, dedicated the best years of their lives to assembling, verifying, and writing down recipes for their fellow cooks to enjoy. Like it or not, the introduction of television brought us TV cookery programs and the recipe books that accompanied them. And that pretty much brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, allowing us all to search through massive numbers of recipes just like those on this web site. |
We hope you enjoy this Ange's Apple Bread recipe.
