The History of Recipes
We can trace the history of `recipes` back into the distant past, in truth as far back as early Egypt, and maybe further still. Interesting though that is, mostly, these early records were just basic hieroglyphic recipes for meal preparation.
In fact, the most ancient recipe in existence, according to experts in ancient history are a few clay 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 making anyone who tried it feel exhilarated. Progressing into Roman times around 25BC a man called Apicius assembled some documents which described recipes cooked by the Romans. In his works, he describes how the meals were separated into hors d`oeuvre, main course and afters, known in latin as `Gustatio, Primae Mensae and Secundae Mensae`. Aspicius informs us how the ancient cooks used a good variety of aromatic flavors, including a few you will know for example basil, rue and dill. For the next few years, the powerful families of Europe tried to offer the most extravagent meals, and as a consequence, the best cooks and their collection of recipes increased in prestige. However, it wasn`t until the nineteenth century that cooking and recipe publications became popular. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Farmer in the USA, dedicated their lives to collecting, trying out, and writing down the recipes of their peers. By the advent of the twentieth century, recipe publications were starting to become popular mostly as a result of more people being able to read, people having more leisure time and a general increase in wealth. |
