The History of Recipes
It is possible to read the history of `recipes` way back into the distant past, in fact as far back as pharonic Egypt, and possibly even further. Interesting though that is, mostly, these early cookbooks were just simple pictorial recipes for food preparation.
In fact, the most ancient recipe in existence, according to experts are some ancient tablets in 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 anyone who tried it feel `blissful`. Continuing our culinary historical journey, we find two interesting cookery books which appeared in the fourteenth century : a cookery book published under the title `Forme of Cury`, and another titled `Curye on Inglish`. Surprisingly, they are nothing to do with the spicy food that we all know today, but instead descriptions of the types of meals served to the rich and wealthy people of the time. Over the succeeding few centuries, the powerful and wealthy tried to serve the most extravagent meals, and as a consequence, the best chefs and their collection of recipes were at a premium. Nevertheless, it was during the 1800s the formal cooking and recipe books became popular. Mrs Beeton in the UK, and Fannie Farmer in the US, dedicated their lives to collating, trying out, and writing down the recipes of their peers. The TV revolution gave us celebrity chefs and the demand for the accompanying recipe books. Which brings us neatly to the present day and the invention of the internet, allowing everybody to search through thousands of recipes like the ones you can find on sites such as this. |
