The History of Recipes
Transcribed cooking instructions as a concept can be observed way back into history, in truth as far as the ancient Egyptians, and maybe further still. In practice though, these, early cookbooks were just basic hieroglyphic instructions for meal preparation.
Fascinatingly, the oldest recipe discovered so far, according to academics are some tablets in Sumerian describing 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 anyone who tried it feel wonderful and blissful. Progressing into The time of the roman empire around 25BC a roman called Apicius created a number of documents detailing recipes prepared by the Romans. In his scrolls, Apicius describes how the roman meals were separated into appetizers, entrees and afters, something that is very familiar to us today. He also describes how the chefs of Roman times used many different herbs, including a few that are still present in modern kitchens for example thyme, rue and asafoetida. In the 15th century, people returning from the crusades brought back a variety of foods, spices and herbs from Arab cuisine, such as rosemary and coriander. These new spices and herbs led to an outbreak in cookery books, some of which are kept safe in private cookery archives. The arrival of TV gave us TV cooks and the accompanying recipe books. And that pretty much brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, allowing everyone to access thousands of recipes like those on the site you are now reading. |
