The History of Recipes
It is quite possible to track the history of transcribed cooking instructions way back into the distant past, certainly as far back as ancient Egypt, and potentially, even further back. Interesting though that is, in the main part, these early records were just primitive hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing meals.
The truth of the matter is, the oldest recipe found, according to historians are some stone tablets in Sumerian describing 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 drinkers feel `exhilarated, wonderful and blissful`. Moving on, there are two interesting books which date from the fourteenth century ; one book titled `Forme of Cury`, and another titled `Curye on Inglish`. The titles are somewhat misleading tho`, these two books are unconnected to the indian food that we all know today, but instead recipes for the types of food prepared for the rich people of the time. During the following few centuries, the powerful families of the West competed with each other to serve the most exotic meals, and as a result the best chefs and their recipe collections were greatly in demand. However, it was during the 19th century that fine cookery and recipe books reached a high level of popularity. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, dedicated their lives to assembling, testing, and publishing recipes for their fellow cooks to enjoy. By the advent of the 1900s, recipe books are in high demand, mostly due to increased literacy, people having increased spare time and having more money. Like it or not, the introduction of TV brought us cooking programs and the recipe books that accompanied them. And that pretty much brings us to the present day and the internet revolution, permitting everybody to search through thousands of recipes like those on this web site. |
