The History of Recipes
Written cooking instructions as an idea can be traced back into distant history, in fact as far as ancient Egypt, and possibly even further than that. In practice though, generally, these early cookbooks were just very basic pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing food.
In an interesting twist, the most ancient recipe discovered, according to Professor Solomon Katz, is a series of clay 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 making drinkers feel wonderful and blissful. Moving our culinary historical trip onwards, we have two books which appeared in the 14th Century - one book called `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary named `Curye on Inglish`. Don`t be fooled by the titles though, they are not about the indian food that is popular today, but instead descriptions of the types of food prepared by the cooks of the rich and powerful of the time. Over the next few hundred years, the wealthy families of Europe strove to lay on the most exotic meals, and consequentially cooks and their recipes were highly sought after. Notwithstanding that, it was during the nineteenth century that haute cuisine and recipe collections became popular. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Farmer in the USA, devoted much of their lives to collecting, testing, and publishing recipes common in their social group. When we get to the 1900s, recipe books were starting to become popular mostly as a result of better eduction, people having more free time and being a little richer. |
