The History of Recipes
Recipes as an idea can be tracked back into antiquity, in truth as far back into recorded history as the early Egyptians, and maybe even further. Interesting though that maybe, generally, these early records were just very simple pictorial instructions for meal preparation.
In an interesting twist, the most ancient recipe in existence, according to academics are a few tablets in Sumerian which describe the making of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making drinkers feel `blissful`. Continuing our culinary historical journey, there are two interesting cookery books dating from the 1300s ; a cookery book published under the title `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary titled `Curye on Inglish`. Despite their titles, these two books have no connection with the spicy food that appears on menues today, but instead descriptions of the types of meals served to the nobility of that time. Over the succeeding few centuries, the wealthy families of the West tried to lay on the most exotic banquets, and as a consequence, chefs and their recipe collections were much in demand. However, it was during the 19th century that fine cooking and recipe publications became popular. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Farmer in the US, devoted much of their lives to collating, trying out, and recording recipes of the day. When we get to the 20th century, cooking books were increasing in popularity due to more people being able to read, leisure time and having more disposable income. The TV revolution brought us celebrity chefs and the accompanying recipe books. Which brings us neatly up to date and the invention of computers and the internet, allowing everyone to access massive numbers of recipes like the ones you can find on our site. |
