The History of Recipes

We are able to track the history of `recipes` far back into antiquity, certainly as far into history as early Egypt, and maybe further still. Having said that, mostly, these old cookbooks were just simple pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for meal preparation.

The truth of the matter is, the oldest recipe found, according to academics is a collection of tablets in ancient Sumerian which describe the preparation of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making people feel wonderful.

As we move on, we find a couple of interesting recipe books which appeared in the 14th Century : a cookery book entitled `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary called `Curye on Inglish`. Don`t be fooled by the titles though, these two books are nothing to do with the spicy food that appears on menues today, but instead accounts of the types of meals on the menus of the rich and powerful of the period.

During the next few centuries, the powerful and wealthy houses competed with each other to lay on the most extravagent meals, and as a result the best cooks and their collection of recipes were at a premium. Notwithstanding that, it was during the 1800s that cooking and recipe publications reached a high level of popularity. Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Farmer in the US, dedicated their lives to collecting, testing, and recording the recipes of their peers.

By the advent of the 20th century, cook books are in high demand, mostly as a result of increased literacy, people having more leisure time and having more disposable income.

The revolution that is television gave us cooking programs and the demand for the accompanying recipe books.

Which brings us neatly to the present day and the invention of the internet, allowing everyone to search through thousands of recipes like the ones you can find on this site.
