The History of Recipes
It is possible to track the history of written recipes way back into the far past, at least as far back into recorded history as the Egyptians, and possibly even further. Having said that, generally, these early cook books were just simple hieroglyphic instructions for food preparation.
In fact, 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 having made anyone who tried it feel wonderful and blissful. Later on, in The time of the romans around 25BC a roman called Apicius assembled a collection of documents describing recipes prepared by his fellow Romans. In his works, Apicius recounts how the roman meals were divided into appetizers, main meal and desserts, a very modern way of dining. This early Roman chef describes how the ancient chefs made use of a wide range of aromatic flavors, including a few you will know for example basil, fennel and asafoetida. Later, in the fifteenth century, knights returning from the crusades brought back many foods, spices and herbs from the holy land, such as coriander, parsley, and basil. The introduction of these new foods and spices created an eruption in recipe books, the majority of which still exist in academic collections. The arrival of television brings us TV cookery programs and the spin-off recipe books. Which brings us neatly up to date and the invention of computers and the internet, permitting us all to search through thousands of recipes just like those on sites such as this. |
