The History of Recipes
Written recipes as a concept can be tracked far back into distant history, at least as far as the Egyptians, and maybe even further. In practice though, these, early cook books were just basic pictorial recipes for food preparation.
The truth of the matter is, the most ancient recipe in existence, according to Professor Solomon Katz, are a few clay tablets in ancient Sumerian which recount the preparation 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 `blissful`. Moving on, we find a couple of books from the 14th Century : a recipe book published under the title `Forme of Cury`, and another entitled `Curye on Inglish`. Although the titles sound familiar, they are not about the spicy food that is served today, but rather recipes for the types of food enjoyed by the rich and powerful of that time. During the following few centuries, the powerful and rich houses strove to serve the best banquets, and as a consequence, the best cooks and their collection of recipes were highly sought after. Even so, it was during the nineteenth century that cooking and recipe publications became really popular. Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Farmer in the USA, devoted their lives to collecting, verifying, and publishing recipes that were common in the better off homes of the day. The revolution that is television gave us TV chefs and the spin-off recipe books. Which pretty much brings us up to date and the invention of computers and the internet, allowing everyone to access thousands of recipes such as those found on our site. |
