The History of Recipes
It is quite possible to trace the history of transcribed cooking instructions back into the distant past, certainly as far back into recorded history as early Egypt, and possibly even further than that. Having said that, in the main part, these early records were just primitive hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing food.
In an interesting twist, the oldest recipe discovered so far, according to experts in ancient history are some tablets in Sumerian which recount the baking 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 wonderful and blissful. Progressing into Roman times 25BC a man called Apicius created a number of documents detailing recipes prepared by wealthy Romans. In his works, he describes how the meals of wealthy Romans were divided into hors d`oeuvre, 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 many different aromatic flavours, including some familiar names for example basil, mint and asafoetida. Over the succeeding few centuries, the rich families of Wesstern Europe competed to lay on the most extravagent banquests, and because of this the best chefs and their recipes increased in prestige. However, it wasn`t until the nineteenth century that fine cookery and recipe collections rose to prominence. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, devoted much of their lives to collating, trying out, and writing down recipes of the day. The TV revolution brings us TV cooks and the demand for the spin-off recipe books. And that brings us to the present day and the invention of the internet, permitting everyone to access massive numbers of recipes like those on our site. |
