The History of Recipes
We are able to read the history of `recipes` back into distant history, at least as far back into recorded history as ancient Egypt, and maybe even further. Interesting though that maybe, generally, these early records were just simple hieroglyphic recipes for food preparation.
The truth of the matter is, the oldest recipe discovered, according to academics is a series of ancient tablets in Sumerian which describe 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 drank it feel exhilarated and blissful. As we move into The time of the romans around 25BC a man called Apicius compiled a number of scripts describing recipes enjoyed by wealthy Romans. In his works, Apicius recounts how the meals of wealthy Romans were separated into hors d`oeuvres, main meal and dessert, a very modern way of dining. Aspicius also describes how the ancient Romans made use of many herbs and spices, including a few that will be familiar to modern chefs for example basil, mint and asafoetida. Later, in the fifteenth century, knights returning from the crusades brought us many foods and herbs from the holy lands, including spices such as coriander, parsley, basil and rosemary. The introduction of these new culinary ideas created an eruption in publications on food, the majority of which are now in private libraries. During the next few centuries, the wealthy families of Wesstern Europe competed with each other to serve up the most exotic meals, and consequentially chefs and their collection of recipes were much in demand. However, it wasn`t until the 19th century that fine cookery and cookery books became popular. Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Farmer in the USA, dedicated years of their lives to collecting, verifying, and publishing recipes common in their social group. By the advent of the 20th century, recipe publications are in high demand, mostly as a result of better eduction, increased leisure time and having more disposable income. |
