The History of Recipes
It is quite possible to track the history of transcribed cooking instructions back into antiquity, in truth as far back into recorded history as the early Egyptians, and quite possibly further than that. However, mostly, these ancient recipes were just primitive hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing food.
The truth of the matter is, the most ancient recipe discovered so far, according to experts in ancient history is a series of stone tablets in ancient Sumerian which recount the preparation 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`. Moving on, there are two interesting cookery books dating from the fourteenth century - a book called `Forme of Cury`, and another entitled `Curye on Inglish`. Amusingly, these two books are not about the curry that is popular today, but instead descriptions of the types of food on the menues of the rich. During the following few centuries, the powerful families of Europe tried to serve the best banquets, and because of this the best chefs and their recipes increased in prestige. Even so, it was during the nineteenth century that fine cookery and recipe collections became popular. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Farmer in the USA, spent years to assembling, trying out, and recording recipes for their fellow cooks to enjoy. Like it or not, the introduction of TV brought us celebrity chefs and the spin-off recipe books. And that pretty much brings us to the present day and the internet revolution, permitting everyone to access massive numbers of recipes just like those on our site. |
