The History of Recipes
Transcribed cooking instructions as an idea can be tracked back into history, in truth as far back as ancient Egypt, and potentially, even further back. Interesting though that maybe, mostly, these old records were just very simple hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for meal preparation.
Fascinatingly, the most ancient recipe discovered, according to Professor Solomon Katz, are some tablets in Sumerian which show 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 `exhilarated, wonderful and blissful`. As we move into The time of the roman empire around 25BC a man called Apicius compiled a few scripts which described recipes cooked by his fellow Romans. In his works, Apicius tells us how the roman meals were divided into hors d`oeuvres, main course and dessert, a style of dining still practiced today. This early Roman chef informs us how the Romans were skilled in the use of a wide range of spices, including a few that will be familiar to modern cooks such as bay, rue and asafoetida. Over the following few centuries, the wealthy families of Wesstern Europe tried to offer the most exotic meals, and consequentially the best chefs and their collection of recipes were greatly in demand. Even so, it wasn`t until the nineteenth century that fine cookery and recipe collections became popular. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, spent years to assembling, testing, and publishing the recipes that were being prepared for the better households. When we get to the 1900s, recipe publications are starting to become popular mostly as a result of better eduction, people having increased leisure time and being a little richer. |
