The History of Recipes
Academics have traced the existance of recipes back into ancient history, in truth as far into history as early Egypt, and maybe even further. However, these, old cook books were just very basic pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing meals.
Interestingly, the most ancient recipe found, according to historians is a series of stone tablets in Sumerian describing the making of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making those who drank it feel `wonderful`. As our culinary historical trip moves on a few more years we have two interesting recipe books which were published in the 1300s ; one book called `Forme of Cury`, and another titled `Curye on Inglish`. Perhaps surprisingly, they are nothing to do with the indian food that appears on menues today, but instead descriptions of the types of food prepared by the chefs of the rich people of that period. During the succeeding few hundred years, the rich families of the West tried to offer the most extravagent meals, and as a result chefs and their recipe collections were much in demand. Nevertheless, it was during the 1800s that haute cuisine and recipe publications became popular. Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Farmer in the US, spent years to collecting, testing, and writing down the recipes of their peers. By the arrival of the 20th century, cooking publications were starting to become popular mostly as a result of increased literacy, leisure time and having more money. Like it or not, the introduction of television brings us celebrity TV chefs and the demand for the accompanying recipe books. Which pretty much brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, permitting us all to access thousands of recipes like the ones you can find on this recipe site. |
