The History of Recipes
Recipes as an idea can be traced far back into distant history, at least as far back into recorded history as the Egypt of the Pharoahs, and quite possibly further than that. Interesting though that is, these, early cookbooks were just very simple hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing meals.
In an interesting twist, the oldest recipe found, according to academics is a collection of clay tablets in ancient Sumerian describing the preparation of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as having made anyone who tried it feel wonderful and blissful. Moving our culinary historical trip onwards, we find a couple of interesting books published in the fourteenth century : a cookery book entitled `Forme of Cury`, and another entitled `Curye on Inglish`. The titles are somewhat misleading tho`, these books are unconnected to the indian curry that appears on menues today, but instead descriptions of the types of meals on the menus of the rich and wealthy people of the time. Over the next few hundred years, the powerful and wealthy competed with each other to serve up the most extravagent banquests, and as a result the best chefs and their collection of recipes were at a premium. However, it wasn`t until the 19th century that cookery and recipe publications reached a high level of popularity. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Merritt Farmer in the USA, dedicated the best years of their lives to assembling, verifying, and publishing popular recipes of the day. When we get to the 20th century, cookbooks are in high demand, as a result of increased literacy, people having increased free time and having more disposable income. The arrival of TV gave us cooking programs and the demand for the spin-off recipe books. And that brings us to the present day and the internet revolution, permitting everybody to search through massive numbers of recipes like those on our web site. |
