The History of Recipes
Recipes as a concept can be traced back into distant history, in fact as far as ancient Egypt, and potentially, even further back. However, mostly, these early cook books were just very simple pictorial instructions for meal preparation.
In an interesting twist, the most ancient recipe in existence, according to Professor Solomon Katz, is a collection of clay tablets in ancient Sumerian which describe the baking of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as having made anyone who drank it feel exhilarated. Continuing our culinary historical journey, there are two books which date from the fourteenth century ; a recipe book entitled `Forme of Cury`, and another called `Curye on Inglish`. Amusingly, these books are unconnected to the indian curry that is popular today, but instead recipes for the types of food prepared by the cooks of the rich and powerful of the period. Over the succeeding few hundred years, the wealthy families of Wesstern Europe strove to lay on the most exotic meals, and as a consequence, the best chefs and their recipe collections were highly sought after. Even so, it wasn`t until the nineteenth century that cookery and recipe collections rose to prominence. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Merritt Farmer in the USA, dedicated years of their lives to assembling, trying out, and publishing recipes that were common in the better off homes of the day. When we get to the twentieth century, recipe publications are starting to become popular mostly due to more people being able to read, people having increased leisure time and being a little richer. The TV revolution brought us celebrity TV chefs and the recipe books that accompanied them. And that brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, permitting everybody to search through massive numbers of recipes like those on sites such as the one you are reading now. |
