The History of Recipes
It is possible to follow the history of `recipes` way back into antiquity, at least as far back as the Egyptians, and possibly even further than that. However, generally, these early cookbooks were just very basic pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for meal preparation.
In an interesting twist, the oldest recipe found, according to academics are some ancient tablets in the Sumerian language which show the preparation of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making anyone who tried it feel `exhilarated, wonderful and blissful`. Continuing our culinary historical journey, we have a couple of recipe books dating from the 1300s - a cookery book titled `Forme of Cury`, and another called `Curye on Inglish`. The titles are somewhat misleading tho`, they have no connection with the spicy food that is familiar to us all today, but rather recipes for the types of meals on the menues of the rich and powerful of those days. Later on, in the 15th century, knights returning from the crusades brought us a variety of foods, spices and herbs from the East, including spices such as coriander, parsley, and rosemary. These new foods and tastes led to an outbreak in manuscripts on cookery, most of which still exist in private collections. Over the succeeding few hundred years, the rich families of Europe competed to serve the most exotic banquets, and as a result chefs and their recipes were much in demand. However, it was during the 1800s that cooking and recipe books became really popular. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Merritt Farmer in the USA, devoted much of their lives to assembling, testing, and publishing the recipes that were being prepared for the better households. The TV revolution brought us TV cooks and the accompanying recipe books. And that neatly brings us to the present day and the internet revolution, permitting everybody to access massive numbers of recipes just like those on this recipe site. |
