The History of Recipes
Transcribed cooking instructions as a concept can be tracked back into the far past, in truth as far back into recorded history as the Egyptians, and maybe further still. In practice though, mostly, these early cookbooks were just very simple pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for meal preparation.
In an interesting twist, the most ancient recipe in existence, according to historians is a collection of 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 making drinkers feel blissful and exhilarated. Later on, in The time of the romans 25BC a man called Apicius created a number of scripts which described recipes prepared by his fellow Romans. In his scrolls, Apicius tells us how the meals of wealthy Romans were split into appetizers, main course and afters, something we still use today. Aspicius also tells us how the Romans were skilled in the use of a wide range of herbs, including many that are still in use today for example bay, rue and dill. Over the succeeding few centuries, the rich families of the West tried to serve the best banquets, and as a consequence, the best cooks and their recipes were greatly in demand. Notwithstanding that, it was during the nineteenth century the formal cooking and recipe collections rose to prominence. Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, spent years to assembling, verifying, and recording recipes common in their social group. When we get to the 20th century, cooking publications were increasing in popularity due to more people being able to read, people having more leisure time and having more money. |
