The History of Recipes

Historians have found proof that recipes existed back into the distant past, in truth as far back into recorded history as pharonic Egypt, and quite possibly further than that. Interesting though that maybe, generally, these old records were just very simple hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing meals.

Interestingly, the oldest recipe discovered, according to experts in ancient history are some stone tablets in the Sumerian language which describe the baking of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making people feel `blissful`.

Closer to modern times, we find two recipe books which were published in the 14th Century ; a book titled `Forme of Cury`, and another called `Curye on Inglish`. Amusingly, they have no connection with the indian curry that is popular today, but instead descriptions of the types of food prepared for the rich people of those days.

During the succeeding few hundred years, the families of Europe competed to offer the most extravagent meals, and consequentially the best cooks and their recipe collections increased in prestige. Even so, it was during the 19th century that cookery and recipe collections became popular. Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, dedicated their lives to collecting, verifying, and recording recipes common in their social group.

By the arrival of the 1900s, cookbooks were in great demand, mostly as a result of better eduction, people having more leisure time and a general increase in wealth.
