The History of Recipes
Written cooking instructions as an idea can be found way back into antiquity, at least as far back as ancient Egypt, and maybe even further. Interesting though that is, sadly, these ancient cook books were just simple pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for food preparation.
Fascinatingly, the oldest recipe found, according to food historians is a series of stone tablets in Sumerian which describe the preparation 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 exhilarated and blissful. As our culinary historical trip moves to more modern times there were two recipe books which date from the fourteenth century - a cookery book called `Forme of Cury`, and another titled `Curye on Inglish`. Amusingly, these books are not about the indian curry that appears on menues today, but rather recipes for the types of food on the menues of the rich and powerful. In the 15th century, people returning from the crusades brought us a variety of spices and herbs from the Middle-East, including spices like coriander, parsley, and basil. These new spices and herbs created a torrent in books on cooking, some of which still exist in private libraries. Over the following few centuries, the rich and powerful families of the West competed to serve up the most exotic meals, and as a result the best chefs and their recipes were at a premium. Even so, it wasn`t until the nineteenth century that fine cooking and recipe publications became really popular. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and Fannie Farmer in the US, dedicated years of their lives to collating, trying out, and writing down the recipes of their peers. The arrival of TV gave us TV cooks and the recipe books that accompanied them. And that neatly brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, allowing everybody to search through massive numbers of recipes like the ones you can find on our site. |
