The History of Recipes
Recipes as an idea can be tracked back into the distant past, in truth as far into history as pharonic Egypt, and maybe even further. Interesting though that maybe, in the main part, these old cook books were just very basic pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for food preparation.
Progressing into Roman times 25BC a man called Apicius assembled a number of scripts which described recipes enjoyed by his fellow Romans. In his scrolls, he recounts how the meals of wealthy Romans were separated into hors d`oeuvres, main meal and afters, a very modern way of dining. He also informs us how the Roman chefs used a wide range of aromatic flavours, including a few that will be familiar to modern cooks for example basil, mint and dill. Over the succeeding few centuries, the powerful families of Wesstern Europe tried to serve up the most extravagent meals, and because of this chefs and their recipe collections were much in demand. Even so, it wasn`t until the 19th century that cooking and recipe books rose to prominence. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, devoted their lives to assembling, trying out, and publishing the recipes of their peers. When we get to the twentieth century, recipe publications were increasing in popularity mostly as a result of higher levels of literacy, leisure time and having more disposable income. |
