The History of Recipes
Transcribed cooking instructions as a concept can be found back into ancient history, in truth as far back into history as the Egypt of the Pharoahs, and possibly even further. Having said that, these, old records were just simple hieroglyphic instructions for preparing food.
Fascinatingly, the oldest recipe discovered, according to experts is a collection of ancient tablets in Sumerian describing the baking of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making people feel `wonderful`. During the time of the Roman Empire a roman called Apicius wrote a number of scripts detailing recipes prepared by his fellow Romans. In his works, he tells us how the roman meals were separated into hors d`oeuvres, entrees and dessert, a very modern way of dining. This early Roman chef describes how the ancient cooks made use of many herbs and spices, including a few that are still present in modern kitchens such as basil, fennel and asafoetida. Over the following few hundred years, the powerful and rich houses competed to serve the most exotic banquets, and consequentially cooks and their recipes became highly prized. Nevertheless, it wasn`t until the 1800s that formal cookery and recipe books reached a high level of popularity. Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Farmer in the USA, dedicated years of their lives to collating, verifying, and recording the recipes that were being prepared for the better households. By the arrival of the 20th century, cook books are highly popular mostly due to better eduction, people having more free time and disposable income. |
