The History of Recipes
We can read the history of written recipes way back into the distant past, in fact as far back into history as the Egyptians, and possibly even further. Interesting though that is, these, ancient cookbooks were just primitive hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing food.
In fact, the most ancient recipe discovered so far, according to experts is a collection of ancient tablets in the Sumerian language 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 those who drank it feel wonderful and blissful. Progressing into The time of the roman empire 25BC a man called Apicius assembled a collection of scripts showing how to cook the recipes enjoyed by wealthy roman citizens. In his works, Apicius recounts how the meals of wealthy Romans were separated into starters, entrees and afters, something that is very familiar to us today. Additionally, he informs us how the ancient Romans made use of many aromatic flavors, including a few you will know such as basil, fennel and parsley. Later on, there are some books which appeared in the 1300s ; a book called `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary titled `Curye on Inglish`. Despite their titles, they are nothing to do with the spicy food that appears on menues today, but rather descriptions of the types of food served to the rich and powerful of that period. Later on in the 1400s, the Crusaders brought back a variety of foods and herbs from Arab countries, such as rosemary and coriander. The introduction of these new culinary ideas led to a surge in manuscripts on cookery, some of which still exist in academic collections. By the time we get to the 20th century, recipe books are greatly in demand mostly as a result of more people being able to read, more free time and having more money to spend. |
