The History of Recipes

Food historians have tracked the existence of recipes far back into the distant past, at least as far back into history as the Egyptians, and maybe further still. Interesting though that maybe, generally, these ancient cookbooks were just primitive hieroglyphic recipes for food preparation.

Fascinatingly, the oldest recipe in existence, according to food historians are some stone tablets in the Sumerian language describing the making of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as having made people feel exhilarated.

As our culinary historical trip moves to more modern times there were some recipe books from the 14th Century ; a book titled `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary called `Curye on Inglish`. Amusingly, these are nothing to do with the indian food that appears on menues today, but instead accounts of the types of food on the menues of the rich people of the time.

Over the next few centuries, the upper classes competed with each other to offer the best banquets, and as a consequence, the best cooks and their recipe collections could command a high salary. Even so, it wasn`t until the 1800s that haute cuisine and recipe publications became popular. Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Farmer in the USA, spent years to collecting, testing, and writing down the recipes of their peers.

By the arrival of the twentieth century, cookery books are in great demand, due to more people being able to read, more leisure time and having more money to spend.

The introduction of television gave us TV cookery programs and the spin-off recipe books.

Which pretty much brings us up to date and the invention of the internet, permitting everyone to access massive numbers of recipes like the ones you can find on this recipe site.
