The History of Recipes
Written cooking instructions as a concept can be tracked far back into distant history, in truth as far back as the early Egyptians, and quite possibly further than that. Interesting though that is, in the main part, these ancient cook books were just very basic hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing food.
In an interesting twist, the most ancient recipe found, according to experts are some stone tablets in ancient Sumerian which describe the preparation 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, wonderful and blissful`. Later on, in The time of the romans 25BC a roman called Apicius wrote a few documents which described recipes cooked by wealthy roman citizens. In his works, he describes how the meals of wealthy Romans were divided into appetizers, main course and afters, known in latin as `Gustatio, Primae Mensae and Secundae Mensae`. He also informs us how the ancient chefs made use of a wide range of herbs and spices, including some that we all recognise such as basil, mint and parsley. Later on, in the 15th century, people returning from the crusades brought back many new foods, spices and herbs from the East, including spices like coriander, parsley, basil and rosemary. These new foods and tastes led to an increase in manuscripts on cookery, some of which are kept safe in private libraries. When we get to the 20th century, cook books were starting to become popular due to increased literacy, people having increased free time and disposable income. The TV revolution gave us celebrity TV chefs and the accompanying recipe books. And that neatly brings us to the present day and the invention of the internet, permitting us all to search through massive numbers of recipes just like those on our web site. |
