The History of Recipes
It is possible to track the history of written recipes way back into the far past, certainly as far back into history as the early Egyptians, and maybe further still. Interesting though that is, in the main part, these ancient cook books were just very simple pictorial instructions for food preparation.
In an interesting twist, the oldest recipe found, according to experts are a few ancient tablets in the Sumerian language describing 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 anyone who drank it feel exhilarated and blissful. Moving our culinary historical trip onwards, we have some recipe books dating from the fourteenth century ; a recipe book published under the title `Forme of Cury`, and another named `Curye on Inglish`. The titles are somewhat misleading tho`, these are unconnected to the curry that is popular today, but rather descriptions of the types of meals cooked for the rich people of the period. Over the succeeding few centuries, the wealthy families of Europe competed to offer the most exotic banquets, and as a result the best cooks and their recipe collections became highly prized. However, it wasn`t until the 19th century that formal cookery and recipe collections really came of age. Mrs Beeton in the UK, and Fannie Farmer in the US, dedicated years of their lives to collating, trying out, and writing down recipes common in their social group. The TV revolution brought us TV cookery programs and the accompanying recipe books. Which brings us neatly to the present day and the invention of the internet, allowing everybody to search through thousands of recipes like the ones you can find on sites such as the one you are reading now. |
