The History of Recipes
It is possible to read the history of written recipes far back into the far past, in truth as far back into recorded history as the early Egyptians, and maybe even further. However, in the main part, these old cook books were just primitive hieroglyphic recipes for preparing meals.
In fact, the oldest recipe in existence, according to experts in ancient history are some stone tablets in 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 people feel wonderful and blissful. Later, there are two recipe books published in the 14th Century : a book titled `Forme of Cury`, and another titled `Curye on Inglish`. Surprisingly, they have no connection with the curry that appears on menues today, but instead descriptions of the types of food cooked for the rich and powerful of that time. Later on in the 1400s, the Crusaders brought back a variety of foods and spices from Arab cooking, such as basil and rosemary. These new herbs and spices led to an outbreak in manuscripts on cooking, some of which are kept safe in academic collections. For the decades that followed, the wealthy families of the West competed to serve up the most extravagent banquests, and as a consequence, cooks and their collection of recipes increased in prestige. Nevertheless, it was during the 1800s that cooking and recipe publications reached a high level of popularity. Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, spent years to collating, testing, and recording recipes to help cooks of their time. The arrival of television brought us TV cooks and the demand for the spin-off recipe books. Which brings us neatly up to date and the internet revolution, permitting everybody to access massive numbers of recipes like the ones you can find on this site. |
