The History of Recipes
Recipes as a concept can be tracked far back into distant history, in fact as far into history as ancient Egypt, and potentially, even further back. Having said that, in the main part, these old cookbooks were just very basic pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for meal preparation.
In fact, the most ancient recipe discovered, according to academics are a few tablets in the Sumerian language which show the preparation of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as having made drinkers feel exhilarated. Later on, in The time of the romans around 25BC a man called Apicius assembled a few documents showing how to cook the recipes prepared by the Romans. In his publication, Apicius tells us how the meals were divided into starters, entrees and afters, known in latin as `Gustatio, Primae Mensae and Secundae Mensae`. This early Roman chef recounts how the ancient Romans made use of many aromatic flavours, including some familiar names like basil, mint and asafoetida. Later, there are a couple of books from the fourteenth century ; a cookery book published under the title `Forme of Cury`, and another named `Curye on Inglish`. Surprisingly, they are nothing to do with the spicy food that is served today, but instead recipes for the types of food prepared by the cooks of the upper classes of that time. Later on in the 1400s, the Crusaders brought back many new foods, spices and herbs from the holy land, including spices like parsley and basil. These new foods and spices was responsible for an outbreak in manuscripts on cookery, some of which are kept safe in private libraries. By the time we get to the 20th century, recipe books are starting to become popular due to better eduction, people having increased spare time and having more disposable income. The arrival of television brought us celebrity TV chefs and the spin-off recipe books. Which brings us neatly up to date and the internet revolution, permitting everyone to search through massive numbers of recipes like the ones you can find on sites such as the one you are reading now. |
