The History of Recipes
It is possible to follow the history of written recipes back into history, in truth as far back into history as the early Egyptians, and potentially, even further back. Interesting though that is, mostly, these ancient records were just very simple hieroglyphic instructions for food preparation.
In fact, the most ancient recipe discovered, according to Professor Solomon Katz, are some stone tablets in the Sumerian language 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 having made people feel `wonderful`. Later on, there are a couple of interesting cookery books dating from the fourteenth century : one book titled `Forme of Cury`, and another named `Curye on Inglish`. The titles are somewhat misleading tho`, these are not about the indian curry that we all know today, but instead accounts of the types of meals prepared for the nobility of that period. For the centuries that followed, the wealthy families of the West tried to serve the most exotic banquets, and consequentially the best chefs and their collection of recipes were highly sought after. However, it wasn`t until the nineteenth century that fine cooking and recipe books rose to prominence. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Farmer in the USA, devoted much of their lives to collating, trying out, and writing down popular recipes of the day. By the time we get to the 20th century, cooking books were increasing in popularity due to better eduction, people having increased spare time and being a little richer. |
