The History of Recipes
Academics have tracked the existance of recipes way back into ancient history, certainly as far back into history as pharonic Egypt, and maybe further still. However, in the main part, these old cookbooks were just very simple hieroglyphic instructions for meal preparation.
Interestingly, the oldest recipe found, according to food historians are some ancient tablets in the Sumerian language describing the baking of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as having made drinkers feel `blissful`. During Roman times around 25BC a man called Apicius compiled some scripts detailing recipes enjoyed by wealthy Romans. In his publication, he tells us how the meals were split into starters, entrees and afters, something that is very familiar to us today. He also informs us how the ancient cooks were skilled in the use of many different herbs, including a few you will know for example thyme, mint and dill. In the fifteenth century, knights returning from the crusades brought us a variety of foods and spices from the Middle-East, including coriander, parsley, and rosemary. These new herbs and spices was responsible for an outbreak in manuscripts on cooking, some of which still exist in private collections. Like it or not, the introduction of television brought us TV cooks and the demand for the spin-off recipe books. And that neatly brings us to the present day and the invention of the internet, allowing everyone to access massive numbers of recipes like those on this web site. |
