The History of Recipes
We can track the history of meal recipes far back into antiquity, in fact as far as the early Egyptians, and potentially, even further back. Interesting though that maybe, generally, these early cookbooks were just very basic hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for meal preparation.
In fact, the most ancient recipe discovered so far, according to Professor Solomon Katz, are some 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 anyone who drank it feel exhilarated and blissful. Progressing into The time of the roman empire 25BC a roman called Apicius wrote some scripts showing how to cook the recipes prepared by wealthy Romans. In his publication, he recounts how the roman meals were divided into hors d`oeuvres, entrees and afters, a very modern way of dining. Aspicius informs us how the ancient Romans were skilled in the use of many different herbs, including many that are still in use today such as basil, rue and dill. For the centuries that followed, the powerful and wealthy houses strove to lay on the most exotic banquets, and because of this the best chefs and their collection of recipes were greatly in demand. Even so, it wasn`t until the 1800s that formal cookery and recipe books reached a high level of popularity. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Farmer in the USA, spent years to collating, verifying, and recording popular recipes of the day. By the time we get to the 20th century, cook books are starting to become popular due to higher levels of literacy, people having increased leisure time and being a little richer. |
