The History of Recipes
We are able to trace the history of written recipes way back into the far past, in fact as far back as ancient Egypt, and maybe further still. Interesting though that maybe, in the main part, these old records were just basic pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing food.
The truth of the matter is, the most ancient recipe discovered so far, according to academics is a collection of clay tablets in 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 making drinkers feel `exhilarated, wonderful and blissful`. As we move on, we have some interesting books which date from the 14th Century ; a cookery book entitled `Forme of Cury`, and another named `Curye on Inglish`. Although the titles sound familiar, these have no connection with the indian curry that is served today, but instead descriptions of the types of food served to the rich people of that period. During the next few centuries, the upper-class families of Europe strove to offer the most exotic meals, and because of this the best cooks and their recipe collections were much in demand. Even so, it wasn`t until the 19th century that fine cooking and cookery books reached a high level of popularity. Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Farmer in the USA, devoted their lives to collating, testing, and writing down recipes that were common in the better off homes of the day. The revolution that is television brings us TV chefs and the recipe books that accompanied them. Which brings us neatly to the present day and the internet revolution, permitting everyone to access thousands of recipes like those on this recipe site. |
