The History of Recipes
Transcribed cooking instructions as an idea can be found far back into ancient history, in truth as far back as the Egyptians, and quite possibly further than that. In practice though, these, old records were just primitive hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing meals.
Progressing into Roman times 25BC a roman called Apicius created a collection of documents which described recipes cooked by the Romans. In his publication, he tells us how the meals of wealthy Romans were separated into appetizers, main meal and desserts, a very modern way of dining. Aspicius also describes how the chefs of Roman times used many spices, including a few that will be familiar to modern chefs like bay, rue and parsley. Over the succeeding few hundred years, the rich and powerful families of the West tried to offer the best banquets, and as a consequence, the best cooks and their recipe collections were at a premium. However, it was during the 19th century that fine cooking and recipe books really came of age. Mrs Beeton in the UK, and Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, dedicated their lives to collecting, testing, and publishing recipes to allow everyone to enjoy them. The TV revolution gave us celebrity TV chefs and the spin-off recipe books. Which brings us neatly to the present day and the internet revolution, allowing everybody to search through thousands of recipes like the ones you can find on this recipe site. |
