The History of Recipes
We can read the history of written recipes back into antiquity, in truth as far as ancient Egypt, and maybe further still. However, generally, these old records were just primitive hieroglyphic instructions for meal preparation.
In fact, the most ancient recipe in existence, according to experts in ancient history is a series of stone tablets in the Sumerian language 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 having made drinkers feel wonderful. Later on, there are two interesting cookery books which appeared in the 14th Century ; a book called `Forme of Cury`, and another named `Curye on Inglish`. Perhaps surprisingly, these books are not about the indian food that appears on menues today, but instead accounts of the types of meals on the menus of the upper classes of the period. For the next few years, the powerful families of Europe tried to lay on the most exotic meals, and as a consequence, the best cooks and their recipe collections increased in prestige. Nevertheless, it wasn`t until the nineteenth century that haute cuisine and recipe publications 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, trying out, and publishing recipes that were common in the better off homes of the day. The introduction of the TV brought us celebrity chefs 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 sites such as this. |
