The History of Recipes
It is quite possible to prove the history of written cooking instructions way back into the far past, certainly as far back into recorded history as ancient Egypt, and maybe even further. In practice though, sadly, these ancient recipes were just very simple pictorial instructions for food preparation.
In fact, the oldest recipe discovered, according to historians is a series of ancient tablets in Sumerian 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 drinkers feel exhilarated. Later on, we have a couple of recipe books which date from the 1300s - one book called `Forme of Cury`, and another named `Curye on Inglish`. The titles are a little misleading though, these are not about the spicy food that is served today, but rather accounts of the types of meals cooked for the upper classes of the time. For the centuries that followed, the upper-class families of Europe competed to serve the most exotic meals, and consequentially chefs and their recipes were much in demand. Notwithstanding that, it wasn`t until the nineteenth century that cooking and cookery books really came of age. Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Merritt Farmer in the USA, devoted their lives to collecting, trying out, and writing down recipes for their fellow cooks to enjoy. By the advent of the twentieth century, cooking books are highly popular mostly due to better eduction, leisure time and having more money. The introduction of the TV brings us TV cooks and the recipe books that accompanied them. Which brings us neatly to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, permitting us all to access thousands of recipes like the ones you can find on sites such as the one you are reading now. |
