The History of Recipes
Written cooking instructions as a concept can be traced back into ancient history, in truth as far back into history as pharonic Egypt, and maybe further still. Having said that, sadly, these early cookbooks were just simple hieroglyphic instructions for preparing food.
In fact, the oldest recipe in existence, according to food historians is a collection of clay tablets in the Sumerian language which show the making of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making anyone who tried it feel blissful. Progressing into The time of the roman empire 25BC a man called Apicius created a collection of scripts describing recipes enjoyed by his fellow Romans. In his works, Apicius tells us how the meals of wealthy Romans were split into appetizers, main meal and afters, a very modern way of dining. Aspicius also informs us how the Roman cooks used a wide range of aromatic flavors, including some familiar names such as basil, mint and parsley. Later on in the 1400s, knights returning from the crusades brought us many foods, spices and herbs from Arab cooking, including spices such as coriander, basil and rosemary. These new culinary innovations led to an eruption in manuscripts on food, most of which still exist in private collections. The introduction of the TV brought us cooking programs and the spin-off recipe books. Which pretty much brings us to the present day and the invention of the internet, permitting us all to access thousands of recipes just like those on sites such as this. |
