The History of Recipes
Recipes as a concept can be traced back into history, certainly as far as the ancient Egyptians, and potentially, even further back. Having said that, mostly, these ancient cook books were just basic hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing food.
In an interesting twist, the oldest recipe discovered so far, according to Professor Solomon Katz, is a series of stone tablets in the Sumerian language which show 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 those who drank it feel wonderful and blissful. Progressing into Roman times 25BC a man called Apicius compiled a few scripts detailing recipes prepared by the Romans. In his scrolls, Apicius tells us how the meals of wealthy Romans were separated into hors d`oeuvre, main meal and dessert, a style of dining still practiced today. Aspicius also tells us how the Roman cooks used a good variety of spices and herbs, including a few you will know such as basil, mint and parsley. Over the succeeding few hundred years, the wealthy families of Wesstern Europe competed to lay on the most exotic banquets, and because of this the best chefs and their recipes were highly sought after. Notwithstanding that, it wasn`t until the 19th century that haute cuisine and recipe collections rose to prominence. Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Farmer in the US, devoted their lives to collecting, testing, and writing down the recipes that were being prepared for the better households. When we get to the twentieth century, recipe publications are highly popular mostly due to higher levels of literacy, people having increased spare time and being a little richer. The TV revolution brought us TV cooks and the accompanying recipe books. Which pretty much brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, permitting us all to access thousands of recipes such as those found on this site. |
