The History of Recipes
It is quite possible to follow the history of recipes back into history, at least as far back as the ancient Egyptians, and potentially, even further back. In practice though, sadly, these old cookbooks were just very simple hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing food.
In fact, the oldest recipe discovered so far, according to academics are a few stone tablets in the Sumerian language which show the preparation of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making anyone who tried it feel `exhilarated, wonderful and blissful`. Later on, there are two recipe books which date from the fourteenth century : a cookery book published under the title `Forme of Cury`, and another called `Curye on Inglish`. The titles are a little misleading though, these two books have no connection with the indian food that appears on menues today, but rather recipes for the types of food on the tables of the rich and powerful of that time. For the centuries that followed, the wealthy families of Wesstern Europe competed to offer the most exotic meals, and because of this the best chefs and their collection of recipes were much in demand. Notwithstanding that, it was during the 19th century that haute cuisine and recipe publications became really popular. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Farmer in the US, dedicated years of their lives to assembling, verifying, and writing down the recipes of their peers. By the time we get to the 20th century, recipe publications are in great demand, mostly due to higher levels of literacy, people having increased spare time and having more disposable income. |
