The History of Recipes
Experts have traced the existance of recipes far back into the distant past, in fact as far back into history as ancient Egypt, and possibly even further than that. However, these, ancient cookbooks were just very simple pictorial recipes for preparing meals.
Interestingly, the most ancient recipe found, according to experts in ancient history are a few tablets in Sumerian which recount 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 wonderful and blissful. Closer to modern times, we find some books which date from the 14th Century - a book published under the title `Forme of Cury`, and another titled `Curye on Inglish`. Despite their titles, these are unconnected to the indian food that is served today, but rather accounts of the types of meals prepared by the cooks of the upper classes of the period. During the next few hundred years, the rich and powerful families of Europe competed to serve the best banquets, and as a result the best chefs and their recipe collections were much in demand. However, it wasn`t until the 19th century that haute cuisine and cookery books rose to prominence. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Farmer in the US, devoted their lives to collating, testing, and writing down recipes for their fellow cooks to enjoy. By the time we get to the twentieth century, cookery publications are highly popular due to increased literacy, people having increased leisure time and having more disposable income. |
