The History of Recipes
Food historians have proved the existance of recipes way back into antiquity, in fact as far back into history as early Egypt, and possibly even further. Having said that, in the main part, these early cookbooks were just basic hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for food preparation.
Progressing into The time of the romans around 25BC a roman called Apicius assembled a number of documents describing recipes enjoyed by his fellow Romans. In his scrolls, he tells us how the roman meals were split into hors d`oeuvres, entrees and afters, something we still use today. Aspicius tells us how the early Romans made use of many different herbs, including a few that are still present in modern kitchens like basil, fennel and parsley. During the next few hundred years, the upper-class families of the West competed with each other to serve the most extravagent banquests, and because of this chefs and their recipes were at a premium. Notwithstanding that, it wasn`t until the 1800s that cooking and recipe books became popular. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Merritt Farmer in the USA, dedicated the best years of their lives to collating, verifying, and recording recipes to allow everyone to enjoy them. By the time we get to the twentieth century, cookery publications were in high demand, as a result of higher levels of literacy, leisure time and having more money to spend. |
