The History of Recipes
We can trace the history of written recipes far back into the far past, in fact as far into history as early Egypt, and potentially, even further back. Interesting though that maybe, generally, these ancient cookbooks were just simple hieroglyphic instructions for meal preparation.
In fact, the most ancient recipe discovered, according to academics are some tablets in the Sumerian language 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 `blissful`. As our culinary historical trip moves on a few more years we find a couple of interesting cookery books which appeared in the 14th Century : a cookery book called `Forme of Cury`, and another entitled `Curye on Inglish`. Amusingly, these books have no connection with the indian food that is popular today, but instead descriptions of the types of meals on the tables of the nobility of those days. During the succeeding few hundred years, the powerful and rich houses tried to serve up the most exotic meals, and as a consequence, cooks and their collection of recipes were at a premium. Even so, it wasn`t until the 19th century that fine cookery and recipe collections became popular. Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, devoted much of their lives to collating, verifying, and writing down recipes common in their social group. Like it or not, the introduction of television gave us celebrity chefs and the recipe books that accompanied them. Which pretty much brings us to the present day and the invention of the internet, permitting everyone to access massive numbers of recipes like the ones you can find on our web site. |
