The History of Recipes
Food historians have tracked the existance of recipes way back into ancient history, at least as far as the early Egyptians, and maybe even further. In practice though, mostly, these early recipes were just primitive hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing food.
Interestingly, the most ancient recipe in existence, according to academics are a few tablets in ancient Sumerian describing the making 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`. Closer to modern times, there were two books which were published in the fourteenth century : a cookery book published under the title `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary entitled `Curye on Inglish`. The titles are a little misleading though, these two books have no connection with the indian food that is familiar to us all today, but instead recipes for the types of food cooked for the rich and powerful of the time. During the next few hundred years, the rich and powerful families of Europe tried to offer the most extravagent meals, and as a consequence, the best cooks and their collection of recipes were at a premium. Notwithstanding that, it was during the 1800s that haute cuisine and recipe books reached a high level of popularity. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Farmer in the USA, dedicated their lives to collecting, trying out, and writing down recipes that were common in the better off homes of the day. Like it or not, the introduction of TV brings us celebrity TV chefs and the demand for the accompanying recipe books. Which brings us neatly up to date and the invention of the internet, permitting everyone to search through thousands of recipes such as those found on sites such as this. |
