The History of Recipes
Experts have tracked the existence of recipes back into the distant past, at least as far as pharonic Egypt, and possibly even further than that. Having said that, these, early records were just simple pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing meals.
In fact, the most ancient recipe in existence, according to experts is a collection of ancient tablets in ancient Sumerian 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 making drinkers feel blissful. Progressing into Roman times around 25BC a roman called Apicius compiled a few scripts which described recipes cooked by wealthy roman citizens. He recounts how the meals were split into appetizers, main course and dessert, a style of dining still practiced today. Aspicius also recounts how the Romans made use of many different aromatic flavors, including many that are still in use today like thyme, fennel and dill. For the next few years, the rich and powerful families of Wesstern Europe tried to offer the most exotic banquets, and as a consequence, cooks and their collection of recipes became highly prized. Even so, it was during the nineteenth century that fine cookery and recipe collections became popular. Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, dedicated the best years of their lives to collating, trying out, and recording recipes to allow everyone to enjoy them. The introduction of the TV brings us celebrity TV chefs and the accompanying recipe books. Which brings us neatly to the present day and the internet revolution, permitting everybody to search through massive numbers of recipes like those on sites such as this. |
