The History of Recipes
Written recipes as a concept can be tracked way back into history, at least as far as ancient Egypt, and quite possibly further than that. Interesting though that maybe, generally, these early recipes were just simple pictorial recipes for meal preparation.
Fascinatingly, the oldest recipe in existence, according to historians are some stone 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 having made people feel exhilarated. Progressing into The time of the roman empire around 25BC a roman called Apicius compiled a collection of scripts describing recipes enjoyed by his fellow Romans. In his publication, he recounts how the roman meals were divided into appetizers, entrees and afters, something that is very familiar to us today. Additionally, he tells us how the chefs of Roman times used many different spices and herbs, including a few that are still present in modern kitchens such as bay, rue and parsley. As our culinary historical trip moves to more modern times there were two interesting books which appeared in the fourteenth century - one book titled `Forme of Cury`, and another named `Curye on Inglish`. Amusingly, these two books are nothing to do with the curry that appears on menues today, but instead descriptions of the types of food on the tables of the upper classes of those days. In the 15th century, knights returning from the crusades brought back many foods and herbs from Arab cooking, including spices like coriander, parsley, and basil. These new spices and herbs led to an outbreak in manuscripts on cooking, some of which are kept safe in academic collections. Over the following few centuries, the rich and powerful families of Europe competed with each other to serve the most exotic meals, and as a consequence, the best chefs and their recipes were much in demand. Even so, it was during the 1800s that cooking and recipe publications became popular. Mrs Beeton in the UK, and Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, devoted their lives to collating, testing, and recording popular recipes of the day. By the arrival of the twentieth century, cookery publications are in high demand, mostly as a result of more people being able to read, people having increased free time and having more money. The introduction of television brings us cooking programs and the recipe books that accompanied them. Which pretty much brings us up to date and the invention of computers and the internet, allowing everyone to access thousands of recipes like those on this site. |
