The History of Recipes
Transcribed cooking instructions as an idea can be found way back into the distant past, certainly as far back into recorded history as the early Egyptians, and maybe even further. Interesting though that maybe, sadly, these early records were just simple hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing meals.
In an interesting twist, the oldest recipe found, according to food historians is a series of tablets in the Sumerian language which show the making of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as having made those who drank it feel `exhilarated, wonderful and blissful`. Progressing into Roman times 25BC a man called Apicius assembled a few documents detailing recipes prepared by his fellow Romans. In his scrolls, he describes how the roman meals were split into appetizers, entrees and desserts, something that is very familiar to us today. This early Roman chef informs us how the early Romans used a good variety of herbs, including a few that will be familiar to modern chefs for example basil, rue and asafoetida. Later on, in the 15th century, the Crusaders brought back a variety of foods, spices and herbs from the East, including spices such as coriander, parsley, basil and rosemary. These new spices and herbs led to a surge in books on cooking, some of which are kept safe in private libraries. Over the succeeding few hundred years, the powerful families of the West competed to serve the most exotic banquets, and as a result chefs and their collection of recipes could command a high salary. Even so, it was during the 1800s that fine cooking and recipe publications reached a high level of popularity. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Merritt Farmer in the USA, dedicated their lives to collecting, verifying, and publishing recipes common in their social group. When we get to the twentieth century, recipe books are highly popular due to increased literacy, increased leisure time and having more money to spend. |
