The History of Recipes
It is quite possible to track the history of transcribed cooking instructions back into ancient history, in truth as far into history as the Egypt of the Pharoahs, and possibly even further than that. However, mostly, these early recipes were just simple hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing food.
The truth of the matter is, the most ancient recipe found, according to experts in ancient history are a few stone tablets in ancient Sumerian which show 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 drinkers feel exhilarated. Moving on, we have two interesting recipe books published in the 14th Century ; a book published under the title `Forme of Cury`, and another entitled `Curye on Inglish`. Amusingly, these two books are unconnected to the indian food that is served today, but rather recipes for the types of food on the menus of the upper classes. During the following few centuries, the rich families of the West tried to serve up the most extravagent banquests, and as a result cooks and their recipe collections increased in prestige. Nevertheless, it was during the nineteenth century that fine cooking and cookery books reached a high level of popularity. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, spent years to collecting, testing, and recording recipes of the day. By the advent of the twentieth century, cooking publications were increasing in popularity mostly as a result of more people being able to read, people having more leisure time and having more money to spend. |
