The History of Recipes
It is possible to read the history of written recipes way back into the distant past, at least as far back into history as the early Egyptians, and maybe even further. Having said that, in the main part, these early cookbooks were just primitive pictorial recipes for food preparation.
In fact, the most ancient recipe in existence, according to food historians are some ancient tablets in the Sumerian language 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 making people feel exhilarated and blissful. Progressing into Roman times around 25BC a man called Apicius created a collection of scripts showing how to cook the recipes cooked by the Romans. In his publication, Apicius tells us how the roman meals were split into starters, entrees and dessert, something we still use today. Aspicius also tells us how the Roman cooks made use of a wide range of herbs and spices, including a few you will know for example basil, fennel and asafoetida. Later on, we have some interesting books from the 1300s ; a book titled `Forme of Cury`, and another named `Curye on Inglish`. Don`t be fooled by the titles though, they are nothing to do with the indian food that is familiar to us all today, but rather descriptions of the types of food prepared by the cooks of the upper classes of that period. Later on in the 1400s, knights returning from the crusades brought us a variety of foods, spices and herbs from Arab cooking, including spices such as basil and coriander. These new culinary innovations led to an outbreak in recipe manuscripts, most of which still exist in private collections. By the advent of the twentieth century, recipe books were greatly in demand due to more people being able to read, leisure time and having more money to spend. The introduction of the TV brought us TV chefs and the spin-off recipe books. Which pretty much brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, permitting us all to search through massive numbers of recipes just like those on our site. |
We hope you enjoy this Merry Cranberry Ring recipe.
