The History of Recipes
It is quite feasible to follow the history of written cooking instructions way back into the distant past, certainly as far into history as early Egypt, and possibly even further. Interesting though that maybe, these, early cookbooks were just simple pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing food.
Interestingly, the oldest recipe discovered, according to food historians are some ancient tablets in ancient Sumerian describing the baking 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`. As we move into The time of the romans 25BC a man called Apicius assembled a collection of scripts describing recipes cooked by the Romans. In his scrolls, Apicius tells us how the roman meals were split into hors d`oeuvres, main course and dessert, a very modern way of dining. Aspicius describes how the chefs of Roman times used a good variety of spices, including a few you will know for example basil, rue and parsley. Later, in the 15th century, the Crusaders brought back many foods and herbs from the holy land, including spices such as coriander, parsley, and rosemary. The introduction of these new herbs and spices created a torrent in recipe manuscripts, most of which still exist in private libraries. Like it or not, the introduction of TV brought us cooking programs and the demand for the accompanying recipe books. And that pretty much brings us to the present day and the internet revolution, allowing everybody to search through thousands of recipes such as those found on this recipe site. |
