The History of Recipes
We can track the history of `recipes` back into history, in truth as far back as the Egypt of the Pharoahs, and possibly even further. Interesting though that is, these, ancient cook books were just very basic hieroglyphic instructions for preparing food.
In fact, the most ancient recipe discovered, according to academics is a collection of tablets in the Sumerian language describing the baking of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making anyone who drank it feel `exhilarated, wonderful and blissful`. Later on, there are two books published in the 1300s : a cookery book entitled `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary named `Curye on Inglish`. Despite their titles, they are unconnected to the indian curry that appears on menues today, but rather recipes for the types of meals on the menus of the upper classes of the time. Later on in the 1400s, the Crusaders brought back many new foods and spices from the holy land, including spices such as basil and rosemary. The introduction of these new culinary ideas led to a torrent in recipe books, some of which are now in private collections. For the next few years, the wealthy families of the West tried to offer the most extravagent banquests, and consequentially chefs and their collection of recipes were at a premium. However, it was during the nineteenth century that cookery and recipe publications rose to prominence. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Farmer in the US, spent years to collecting, trying out, and writing down recipes common in their social group. The introduction of the TV brought us celebrity TV chefs and the demand for the spin-off recipe books. And that pretty much brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, permitting us all to access thousands of recipes such as those found on sites such as this. |
