The History of Recipes
We are able to follow the history of written recipes far back into distant history, in fact as far back into recorded history as the ancient Egyptians, and potentially, even further back. Having said that, these, ancient cook books were just simple hieroglyphic recipes for preparing food.
The truth of the matter is, the most ancient recipe found, according to food historians is a series of stone tablets in Sumerian which show 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 `blissful`. As we move on, we find a couple of books which date from the fourteenth century : a cookery book called `Forme of Cury`, and another titled `Curye on Inglish`. Don`t be fooled by the titles though, these are not about the spicy food that appears on menues today, but instead recipes for the types of meals cooked for the rich and wealthy people of that period. Later, in the fifteenth century, people returning from the crusades brought back many new spices and herbs from the East, including spices like parsley, basil and rosemary. These new culinary innovations prompted an increase in manuscripts on cookery, some of which are kept safe in private collections. During the following few hundred years, the powerful and rich strove to lay on the most exotic meals, and as a result the best chefs and their collection of recipes were at a premium. Notwithstanding that, it wasn`t until the nineteenth century that cooking and recipe publications became popular. Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Farmer in the USA, dedicated the best years of their lives to assembling, testing, and writing down recipes common in their social group. The arrival of television gave us celebrity TV chefs and the recipe books that accompanied them. Which pretty much brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, permitting everyone to search through massive numbers of recipes just like those on this site. |
