The History of Recipes
Historians have found proof that recipes existed way back into antiquity, in truth as far back as the ancient Egyptians, and quite possibly further than that. However, in the main part, these early cook books were just primitive pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for meal preparation.
As we move into Roman times around 25BC a roman called Apicius wrote a number of documents describing recipes prepared by wealthy roman citizens. In his scrolls, he tells us how the roman meals were separated into appetizers, main meal and afters, something that is very familiar to us today. Aspicius informs us how the cooks of his times made use of a wide range of spices, including a few that are still present in modern kitchens like thyme, mint and asafoetida. During the following few centuries, the powerful and rich houses competed with each other to offer the best banquets, and as a result chefs and their recipe collections were much in demand. Nevertheless, it was during the 19th century the formal cooking and recipe publications reached a high level of popularity. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Farmer in the US, dedicated the best years of their lives to assembling, testing, and recording recipes that were common in the better off homes of the day. By the advent of the 1900s, cook books were in great demand, due to increased literacy, leisure time and having more disposable income. |
