The History of Recipes
It is quite feasible to follow the history of written cooking instructions back into antiquity, in fact as far as the ancient Egyptians, and possibly even further than that. In practice though, generally, these ancient records were just primitive hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing meals.
Interestingly, the most ancient recipe found, according to experts in ancient history are some clay tablets in the Sumerian language which show the baking of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making drinkers feel wonderful and blissful. Closer to modern times, there are a couple of books which date from the 14th Century : a book titled `Forme of Cury`, and another named `Curye on Inglish`. Don`t be fooled by the titles though, these are not about the spicy food that is familiar to us all today, but rather accounts of the types of meals cooked for the rich and wealthy people of that period. During the succeeding few centuries, the powerful families of Europe strove to lay on the most exotic banquets, and as a result cooks and their collection of recipes increased in prestige. Notwithstanding that, it wasn`t until the nineteenth century the formal cooking and recipe books really came of age. Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, dedicated their lives to assembling, testing, and writing down recipes common in their social group. By the time we get to the twentieth century, recipe publications were starting to become popular mostly due to increased literacy, people having more free time and a general increase in wealth. |
