The History of Recipes
Written recipes as a concept can be found far back into ancient history, in fact as far back into recorded history as early Egypt, and possibly even further than that. Interesting though that maybe, generally, these ancient recipes were just very basic pictorial instructions for preparing food.
Later on, in The time of the romans 25BC a roman called Apicius wrote some documents describing recipes enjoyed by his fellow Romans. In his works, Apicius recounts how the roman meals were divided into appetizers, entrees and desserts, something we still use today. Aspicius also describes how the ancient cooks made use of a wide range of herbs and spices, including many that are still in use today such as bay, rue and asafoetida. Over the succeeding few centuries, the powerful and wealthy houses competed with each other to serve the most extravagent meals, and as a result chefs and their recipes were much in demand. Nevertheless, it was during the 1800s that fine cooking and recipe books really came of age. Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Farmer in the USA, dedicated the best years of their lives to assembling, verifying, and recording recipes for their fellow cooks to enjoy. The TV revolution gave us cooking programs and the demand for the accompanying recipe books. Which pretty much brings us to the present day and the internet revolution, allowing us all to search through massive numbers of recipes just like those on our web site. |
