The History of Recipes

It is quite possible to prove the history of written cooking instructions way back into distant history, in fact as far as the Egypt of the Pharoahs, and quite possibly further than that. Having said that, sadly, these ancient records were just basic hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for meal preparation.

Interestingly, the most ancient recipe found, according to academics is a series of stone tablets in ancient Sumerian 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 people feel `exhilarated, wonderful and blissful`.

Moving on, we have two interesting cookery books from the 14th Century - a cookery book called `Forme of Cury`, and another entitled `Curye on Inglish`. Surprisingly, these are unconnected to the indian curry that appears on menues today, but instead recipes for the types of food on the menus of the rich people of the time.

Later, in the 15th century, knights returning from the crusades brought back many new foods, spices and herbs from the Middle-East, such as coriander, parsley, and rosemary. These new herbs and spices prompted an eruption in recipe books, some of which are kept safe in private collections.

During the next few hundred years, the rich families of the West tried to serve the best banquets, and as a result cooks and their recipes were much in demand. Nevertheless, it wasn`t until the 19th century that cookery and recipe publications became popular. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Farmer in the US, dedicated years of their lives to assembling, trying out, and recording recipes common in their social group.

By the advent of the 1900s, cooking publications were increasing in popularity due to increased literacy, people having more free time and having more disposable income.

Like it or not, the introduction of TV brings us celebrity chefs and the spin-off recipe books.

And that brings us to the present day and the internet revolution, allowing everyone to search through massive numbers of recipes like those on sites such as the one you are reading now.
