The History of Recipes
It is quite possible to prove the history of written cooking instructions far back into ancient history, at least as far back into history as the ancient Egyptians, and maybe even further. In practice though, in the main part, these ancient cook books were just very simple pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing meals.
In an interesting twist, the most ancient recipe found, according to Professor Solomon Katz, are a few stone tablets in ancient Sumerian which show 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 blissful. Progressing into Roman times 25BC a roman called Apicius compiled a collection of scripts which described recipes cooked by wealthy Romans. In his publication, Apicius tells us how the roman meals were separated into hors d`oeuvres, main course and desserts, known in latin as `Gustatio, Primae Mensae and Secundae Mensae`. This early Roman chef tells us how the Roman chefs were skilled in the use of a good variety of aromatic flavors, including a few that will be familiar to modern cooks like bay, mint and dill. Over the succeeding few hundred years, the rich and powerful families of Europe tried to serve up the most exotic meals, and as a result chefs and their collection of recipes were greatly in demand. Notwithstanding that, it wasn`t until the nineteenth century the formal cooking and cookery books became popular. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, devoted much of their lives to collecting, trying out, and publishing recipes to help cooks of their time. When we get to the twentieth century, cookery publications are starting to become popular mostly due to increased literacy, more spare time and being a little richer. The TV revolution brings us celebrity TV chefs and the recipe books that accompanied them. Which brings us neatly up to date and the invention of computers and the internet, allowing us all to access massive numbers of recipes such as those found on sites such as this. |
