The History of Recipes
It is possible to trace the history of meal recipes way back into ancient history, in fact as far into history as the Egyptians, and possibly even further than that. Interesting though that is, in the main part, these old records were just basic pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for meal preparation.
The truth of the matter is, the most ancient recipe discovered so far, according to experts is a series of stone tablets in Sumerian which recount the preparation 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 exhilarated. Later on, in The time of the roman empire around 25BC a man called Apicius created a collection of scripts showing how to cook the recipes enjoyed by his fellow Romans. In his works, he describes how the meals of wealthy Romans were divided into hors d`oeuvre, main course and desserts, something that is very familiar to us today. This early Roman chef informs us how the early Romans were skilled in the use of many herbs and spices, including many that are still in use today for example basil, mint and asafoetida. During the following few hundred years, the rich families of Europe strove to serve up the best banquets, and because of this cooks and their collection of recipes were highly sought after. However, it wasn`t until the nineteenth century the formal cooking and recipe publications rose to prominence. Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Merritt Farmer in the USA, spent years to collecting, verifying, and recording recipes common in their social group. By the time we get to the 1900s, cooking publications are greatly in demand due to higher levels of literacy, people having more free time and disposable income. |
