The History of Recipes
It is quite feasible to prove the history of transcribed cooking instructions far back into antiquity, in truth as far into history as ancient Egypt, and quite possibly further than that. However, generally, these early records were just primitive pictorial recipes for preparing meals.
In fact, the most ancient recipe discovered, according to experts are some clay tablets in Sumerian 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 `blissful`. Progressing into Roman times around 25BC a roman called Apicius wrote some documents which described recipes cooked by wealthy roman citizens. In his publication, he recounts how the meals of wealthy Romans were split into hors d`oeuvres, main meal and dessert, a very modern way of dining. Aspicius also tells us how the cooks of Roman times made use of many different aromatic flavors, including a few that are still present in modern kitchens such as thyme, fennel and dill. Later on in the 1400s, people returning from the crusades brought back many new spices and herbs from the holy land, including spices like rosemary and coriander. These new foods and spices created an eruption in recipe manuscripts, the majority of which are now in academic collections. The introduction of the TV gave us celebrity TV chefs and the recipe books that accompanied them. Which pretty much brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, allowing everybody to search through massive numbers of recipes like those on sites such as this. |
