The History of Recipes
Experts have proved the existence of recipes way back into history, in truth as far as the Egyptians, and potentially, even further back. In practice though, mostly, these old recipes were just primitive hieroglyphic recipes for food preparation.
Fascinatingly, the most ancient recipe discovered so far, according to experts is a series of clay tablets in Sumerian which recount 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 drinkers feel wonderful and blissful. As our culinary historical trip moves on a few more years there were two interesting cookery books from the fourteenth century - a recipe book called `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary named `Curye on Inglish`. The titles are a little misleading though, these two books are unconnected to the indian food that is served today, but instead descriptions of the types of food cooked for the upper classes of those days. Over the following few hundred years, the rich and powerful families of Europe tried to lay on the best banquets, and because of this the best chefs and their recipes became highly prized. Notwithstanding that, it was during the nineteenth century that fine cookery and cookery books reached a high level of popularity. Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, devoted much of their lives to assembling, trying out, and recording recipes of the day. The introduction of television brings us celebrity chefs and the spin-off recipe books. Which brings us neatly to the present day and the internet revolution, allowing us all to access massive numbers of recipes just like those on sites such as this. |
