The History of Recipes
It is quite feasible to prove the history of transcribed cooking instructions far back into the far past, in fact as far back into recorded history as pharonic Egypt, and quite possibly further than that. In practice though, generally, these early recipes were just basic hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing food.
In fact, the most ancient recipe discovered so far, according to food historians is a collection of tablets in ancient Sumerian which recount the making of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as having made anyone who tried it feel wonderful. As our culinary historical trip moves on a few more years there were a couple of interesting cookery books dating from the 14th Century ; a cookery book published under the title `Forme of Cury`, and another named `Curye on Inglish`. Despite their titles, they are nothing to do with the indian food that appears on menues today, but instead recipes for the types of food enjoyed by the nobility of that period. In the fifteenth century, people returning from the crusades brought us many new spices and herbs from the Middle-East, such as basil and coriander. The introduction of these new culinary ideas was responsible for a surge in publications on food, some of which are now in private libraries. Over the following few hundred years, the upper classes tried to serve the most exotic banquets, and as a result cooks and their recipe collections were much in demand. However, it was during the 1800s that fine cookery and recipe publications rose to prominence. Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Merritt Farmer in the USA, dedicated their lives to collating, trying out, and writing down recipes of the day. By the arrival of the 20th century, cookery books are increasing in popularity mostly due to increased literacy, people having more free time and having more disposable income. Like it or not, the introduction of television gave us celebrity chefs and the accompanying recipe books. Which pretty much brings us to the present day and the internet revolution, permitting us all to search through thousands of recipes like the ones you can find on sites such as this. |
