The History of Recipes
Transcribed cooking instructions as an idea can be tracked back into the distant past, at least as far back into history as the early Egyptians, and quite possibly further than that. Having said that, these, old cook books were just very simple pictorial instructions for meal preparation.
Fascinatingly, the oldest recipe discovered so far, according to experts in ancient history are a few ancient tablets in ancient Sumerian which recount 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 exhilarated and blissful. Moving our culinary historical trip onwards, there are some recipe books dating from the fourteenth century ; a book published under the title `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary entitled `Curye on Inglish`. Don`t be fooled by the titles though, these two books are unconnected to the curry that is popular today, but rather recipes for the types of meals prepared for the rich and powerful. In the 15th century, the Crusaders brought back many foods, spices and herbs from middle-east cuisine, including basil and coriander. These new culinary innovations created a torrent in manuscripts on cooking, many of which are now in private libraries. Over the following few centuries, the powerful families of Wesstern Europe competed with each other to offer the most exotic banquets, and because of this the best cooks and their recipe collections increased in prestige. Notwithstanding that, it was during the nineteenth century that cooking and recipe collections rose to prominence. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Merritt Farmer in the USA, devoted their lives to collecting, verifying, and recording recipes that were common in the better off homes of the day. The arrival of TV brought us TV cookery programs and the accompanying recipe books. And that brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, permitting everybody to access thousands of recipes such as those found on our web site. |
