The History of Recipes
It is possible to follow the history of `recipes` far back into history, certainly as far as pharonic Egypt, and maybe even further. However, mostly, these old cook books were just primitive pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for food preparation.
In fact, the oldest recipe found, according to historians is a series of ancient tablets in the Sumerian language which recount the baking of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making those who drank it feel exhilarated and blissful. As we move on, we find two interesting books which appeared in the fourteenth century - a cookery book published under the title `Forme of Cury`, and another titled `Curye on Inglish`. The titles are a little misleading though, these two books have no connection with the indian food that we all know today, but rather recipes for the types of meals prepared by the chefs of the upper classes of that time. During the following few hundred years, the powerful and wealthy houses competed with each other to serve the most exotic meals, and as a consequence, the best chefs and their recipes were much in demand. Notwithstanding that, it was during the 19th century that fine cookery and cookery books became really popular. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and Fannie Farmer in the US, spent years to collating, verifying, and recording recipes to help cooks of their time. By the time we get to the 1900s, cook books are in high demand, mostly as a result of more people being able to read, people having increased free time and having more disposable income. The arrival of television gave us cooking programs and the recipe books that accompanied them. And that neatly brings us to the present day and the internet revolution, allowing everybody to access thousands of recipes like those on our web site. |
