The History of Recipes
We are able to read the history of meal recipes way back into the far past, in truth as far into history as ancient Egypt, and possibly even further than that. Interesting though that maybe, sadly, these early recipes were just very basic pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for food preparation.
The truth of the matter is, the most ancient recipe discovered, according to historians are a few clay 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 anyone who tried it feel `wonderful`. As we move into The time of the romans around 25BC a roman called Apicius assembled a collection of documents which described recipes enjoyed by his fellow Romans. In his scrolls, he describes how the roman meals were split into starters, entrees and desserts, a style of dining still practiced today. Additionally, he recounts how the cooks of his times used many different spices, including many that are still in use today like basil, fennel and parsley. Later, in the 15th century, people returning from the crusades brought us many new spices and herbs from the Middle-East, including spices such as coriander, parsley, basil and rosemary. The introduction of these new tastes was responsible for a surge in recipe books, most of which are now in private libraries. Like it or not, the introduction of TV gave us celebrity TV chefs and the accompanying recipe books. And that brings us to the present day and the invention of the internet, permitting everyone to access massive numbers of recipes like the ones you can find on this web site. |
