The History of Recipes
Experts have tracked the existance of recipes way back into the distant past, at least as far back into history as early Egypt, and quite possibly further than that. In practice though, generally, these early recipes were just primitive hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing meals.
Later on, in Roman times 25BC a man called Apicius assembled a collection of scripts describing recipes prepared by wealthy roman citizens. In his works, Apicius tells us how the meals of wealthy Romans were split into hors d`oeuvre, main course and desserts, known in latin as `Gustatio, Primae Mensae and Secundae Mensae`. Aspicius recounts how the Roman chefs used many herbs, including some familiar names like bay, mint and dill. During the succeeding few hundred years, the powerful families of the West competed with each other to offer the most extravagent meals, and because of this the best cooks and their recipe collections increased in prestige. Notwithstanding that, it wasn`t until the nineteenth century that cookery and recipe publications reached a high level of popularity. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, dedicated their lives to collating, verifying, and writing down recipes to allow everyone to enjoy them. Like it or not, the introduction of television brought us TV cookery programs and the demand for the accompanying recipe books. And that pretty much brings us to the present day and the internet revolution, allowing us all to search through thousands of recipes like the ones you can find on the site you are now reading. |
