The History of Recipes
Written recipes as a concept can be traced far back into ancient history, in truth as far as early Egypt, and quite possibly further than that. However, these, ancient recipes were just primitive hieroglyphic instructions for food preparation.
In an interesting twist, the most ancient recipe found, according to academics is a series of stone 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 having made those who drank it feel `wonderful`. Continuing our culinary historical journey, there were two interesting cookery books which appeared in the fourteenth century : a cookery book called `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary called `Curye on Inglish`. Perhaps surprisingly, they are unconnected to the indian curry that is familiar to us all today, but instead recipes for the types of meals enjoyed by the rich and powerful of that period. Over the succeeding few hundred years, the rich and powerful families of the West tried to lay on the most exotic meals, and as a result the best cooks and their collection of recipes were much in demand. Nevertheless, it was during the 19th century that cookery and recipe books became popular. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Farmer in the USA, dedicated the best years of their lives to collating, trying out, and publishing recipes common in their social group. When we get to the twentieth century, cookery books were increasing in popularity mostly as a result of increased literacy, more leisure time and having more disposable income. |
