The History of Recipes
It is possible to trace the history of written recipes way back into history, at least as far back into recorded history as the Egypt of the Pharoahs, and maybe further still. In practice though, in the main part, these ancient cook books were just very simple pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing food.
The truth of the matter is, the oldest recipe discovered, according to experts in ancient history are some stone tablets in Sumerian which recount the baking 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. As we move on, there were a couple of interesting books published in the 14th Century - a book titled `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary named `Curye on Inglish`. The titles are a little misleading though, these books are unconnected to the spicy food that appears on menues today, but instead accounts of the types of food on the menus of the rich. Later, in the fifteenth century, knights returning from the crusades brought back many foods and spices from the holy land, including coriander, basil and rosemary. The introduction of these new tastes caused an eruption in cookery books, some of which are now in private cookery archives. During the following few hundred years, the rich and powerful families of Europe competed with each other to serve up the most extravagent banquests, and consequentially the best cooks and their recipes could command a high salary. Notwithstanding that, it wasn`t until the 19th century the formal cooking and recipe publications rose to prominence. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Farmer in the US, dedicated years of their lives to collating, testing, and writing down the recipes that were being prepared for the better households. The arrival of television brings us TV cookery programs and the demand for the spin-off recipe books. And that neatly brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, allowing everyone to search through massive numbers of recipes like those on this web site. |
