The History of Recipes

We are able to trace the history of meal recipes far back into the far past, in fact as far into history as the Egyptians, and quite possibly further than that. Interesting though that is, sadly, these ancient recipes were just simple pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing meals.

The truth of the matter is, the most ancient recipe discovered, according to food historians is a collection of tablets in ancient Sumerian which describe 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 blissful.

As we move on, we find some books from the fourteenth century ; a book entitled `Forme of Cury`, and another called `Curye on Inglish`. The titles are somewhat misleading tho`, these two books are nothing to do with the curry that appears on menues today, but rather descriptions of the types of food on the tables of the rich and wealthy people of that period.

During the next few centuries, the families of Europe strove to serve up the best banquets, and consequentially the best cooks and their recipe collections could command a high salary. However, it was during the 1800s that cooking and recipe publications rose to prominence. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, dedicated the best years of their lives to assembling, testing, and writing down recipes common in their social group.

The revolution that is television gave us TV chefs and the spin-off recipe books.

And that neatly brings us to the present day and the invention of the internet, permitting everybody to search through massive numbers of recipes just like those on this recipe site.
