The History of Recipes
It is quite possible to trace the history of recipes far back into antiquity, in truth as far back into history as pharonic Egypt, and maybe further still. In practice though, sadly, these old cook books were just basic pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for food preparation.
Interestingly, the most ancient recipe discovered so far, according to experts in ancient history is a collection of stone tablets in Sumerian which describe 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 people feel wonderful and blissful. Closer to modern times, we find a couple of interesting cookery books which were published in the 14th Century - a book entitled `Forme of Cury`, and another titled `Curye on Inglish`. The titles are a little misleading though, these are unconnected to the curry that is popular today, but rather descriptions of the types of meals eaten by the nobility of the period. During the succeeding few centuries, the powerful and wealthy houses tried to serve the most extravagent meals, and because of this the best cooks and their recipes increased in prestige. Notwithstanding that, it wasn`t until the 19th century that formal cookery and recipe collections really came of age. Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Merritt Farmer in the USA, dedicated years of their lives to collecting, verifying, and writing down recipes for their fellow cooks to enjoy. By the arrival of the 1900s, cook books are increasing in popularity as a result of higher levels of literacy, people having more leisure time and a general increase in wealth. Like it or not, the introduction of television gave us celebrity chefs and the demand for the accompanying recipe books. Which brings us neatly to the present day and the invention of the internet, permitting us all to search through thousands of recipes like the ones you can find on our site. |
