The History of Recipes
Academics have traced the existence of recipes back into distant history, in truth as far as the ancient Egyptians, and possibly even further. However, generally, these old cookbooks were just basic hieroglyphic recipes for food preparation.
Fascinatingly, the most ancient recipe in existence, according to experts is a collection of ancient tablets in ancient Sumerian which recount the making of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as having made people feel `wonderful`. As our culinary historical trip moves to more modern times there are two interesting cookery books which date from the 1300s ; a recipe book entitled `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary called `Curye on Inglish`. Surprisingly, they are unconnected to the indian food that is served today, but instead descriptions of the types of meals enjoyed by the rich and powerful. Over the next few centuries, the wealthy families of Wesstern Europe tried to lay on the most exotic meals, and as a consequence, cooks and their recipe collections became highly prized. Nevertheless, it was during the nineteenth century that fine cookery and cookery books rose to prominence. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Farmer in the US, devoted their lives to collecting, trying out, and writing down recipes of the day. By the arrival of the twentieth century, recipe publications are increasing in popularity mostly due to more people being able to read, more free time and disposable income. The introduction of television brought us celebrity chefs and the recipe books that accompanied them. And that neatly brings us to the present day and the invention of the internet, allowing everyone to access thousands of recipes like the ones you can find on sites such as this. |
