The History of Recipes
It is possible to track the history of `recipes` way back into history, in fact as far back into recorded history as ancient Egypt, and potentially, even further back. However, these, ancient cookbooks were just primitive hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for food preparation.
In fact, the most ancient recipe in existence, according to historians is a series of stone tablets in the Sumerian language describing the making of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making those who drank it feel exhilarated and blissful. Later, there were a couple of books which appeared in the fourteenth century ; one book called `Forme of Cury`, and another named `Curye on Inglish`. Perhaps surprisingly, these have no connection with the indian curry that is popular today, but instead accounts of the types of meals prepared by the chefs of the rich. For the decades that followed, the upper-class families of the West strove to serve the most exotic meals, and as a consequence, the best chefs and their recipe collections were greatly in demand. Nevertheless, it wasn`t until the 1800s that cookery and recipe collections reached a high level of popularity. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Merritt Farmer in the USA, dedicated the best years of their lives to assembling, verifying, and recording recipes of the day. By the time we get to the 1900s, cookery publications were starting to become popular mostly as a result of more people being able to read, people having increased leisure time and having more money. |
