The History of Recipes
It is actually possible to trace the history of written cooking instructions far back into distant history, in fact as far into history as the Egypt of the Pharoahs, and maybe even further. In practice though, these, old recipes were just simple hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing food.
The truth of the matter is, the most ancient recipe found, according to experts in ancient history are some ancient tablets in 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 having made drinkers feel `blissful`. As we move into Roman times around 25BC a roman called Apicius wrote a few documents showing how to cook the recipes enjoyed by his fellow Romans. In his publication, he tells us how the meals of wealthy Romans were separated into hors d`oeuvre, main meal and afters, a style of dining still practiced today. Additionally, he describes how the ancient chefs were skilled in the use of many aromatic flavors, including many that are still in use today for example thyme, rue and dill. Later, in the 15th century, people returning from the crusades brought back a variety of foods and spices from the East, including spices such as parsley, basil and rosemary. The introduction of these new culinary ideas prompted an eruption in manuscripts on cookery, many of which are now in private libraries. By the advent of the 1900s, cook books were greatly in demand as a result of increased literacy, leisure time and a general increase in wealth. The revolution that is television gave us TV chefs and the demand for the spin-off recipe books. Which brings us neatly to the present day and the internet revolution, permitting us all to access thousands of recipes like the ones you can find on sites such as this. |
