The History of Recipes
It is possible to follow the history of `recipes` far back into the distant past, in fact as far back into history as the early Egyptians, and maybe even further. Interesting though that is, sadly, these old recipes were just basic hieroglyphic instructions for preparing food.
In fact, the most ancient recipe discovered, according to Professor Solomon Katz, is a series of clay 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 people feel exhilarated and blissful. Later, there were some books dating from the 1300s : one book called `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary entitled `Curye on Inglish`. The titles are somewhat misleading tho`, these have no connection with the spicy food that we all know today, but rather accounts of the types of meals on the menues of the rich people of that time. Later on in the 1400s, people returning from the crusades brought us a variety of spices and herbs from the holy lands, including spices such as parsley, basil and rosemary. These new foods and tastes caused an outbreak in manuscripts on cookery, most of which still exist in private cookery archives. For the decades that followed, the upper classes strove to serve up the most exotic banquets, and consequentially chefs and their collection of recipes were highly sought after. However, it wasn`t until the 1800s the formal cooking and recipe books really came of age. Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, dedicated years of their lives to assembling, testing, and recording recipes that were common in the better off homes of the day. The arrival of television gave us TV chefs and the accompanying recipe books. Which pretty much brings us up to date and the invention of the internet, permitting everybody to search through massive numbers of recipes just like those on this recipe site. |
