The History of Recipes
Transcribed cooking instructions as an idea can be observed far back into antiquity, in truth as far back as early Egypt, and possibly even further than that. Interesting though that maybe, generally, these old cookbooks were just very simple pictorial recipes for preparing meals.
Interestingly, the most ancient recipe found, according to food historians is a collection of ancient tablets in 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 people feel wonderful and blissful. Moving on, we find a couple of books which date from the fourteenth century : a cookery book entitled `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary named `Curye on Inglish`. Amusingly, these books are nothing to do with the curry that is popular today, but rather recipes for the types of food prepared by the chefs of the rich people of those days. During the next few hundred years, the powerful and wealthy houses strove to serve the most exotic banquets, and as a result the best chefs and their collection of recipes were at a premium. Even so, it wasn`t until the 1800s that formal cookery and recipe collections became really popular. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Farmer in the US, devoted much of their lives to collecting, testing, and recording recipes that were common in the better off homes of the day. Like it or not, the introduction of TV gave us celebrity TV chefs and the accompanying recipe books. And that brings us to the present day and the invention of the internet, permitting everyone to access massive numbers of recipes like the ones you can find on this web site. |
