The History of Recipes
Written cooking instructions as a concept can be found far back into ancient history, in fact as far as pharonic Egypt, and potentially, even further back. In practice though, generally, these early records were just very simple hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing food.
Later on, in Roman times around 25BC a roman called Apicius compiled a few scripts which described recipes enjoyed by his fellow Romans. In his publication, Apicius describes how the roman meals were separated into hors d`oeuvre, main course and dessert, known in latin as `Gustatio, Primae Mensae and Secundae Mensae`. Aspicius informs us how the Romans used many spices and herbs, including some that we all recognise such as basil, fennel and asafoetida. For the next few years, the rich and powerful families of Wesstern Europe tried to serve up the most extravagent banquests, and because of this cooks and their collection of recipes were at a premium. Notwithstanding that, it wasn`t until the nineteenth century that haute cuisine and cookery books became popular. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, devoted their lives to collating, testing, and writing down popular recipes of the day. By the advent of the twentieth century, cookery books were increasing in popularity as a result of higher levels of literacy, more free time and having more disposable income. |
