The History of Recipes
Academics have proved the existence of recipes way back into history, certainly as far back into history as ancient Egypt, and maybe even further. Having said that, in the main part, these ancient cook books were just basic pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing meals.
Fascinatingly, the oldest recipe discovered so far, according to historians are some ancient tablets in ancient Sumerian which describe the making 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 blissful. As we move into The time of the roman empire 25BC a roman called Apicius compiled a collection of scripts detailing recipes enjoyed by wealthy roman citizens. In his scrolls, Apicius recounts how the roman meals were split into appetizers, main course and afters, a very modern way of dining. Aspicius also recounts how the Roman cooks used a good variety of aromatic flavors, including some that we all recognise like bay, mint and asafoetida. In the 15th century, knights returning from the crusades brought back a variety of spices and herbs from middle-east cuisine, including spices such as parsley and basil. These new foods and spices led to an increase in manuscripts on cooking, the majority of which are now in private cookery archives. Over the next few centuries, the rich and powerful families of Europe competed to serve the most exotic meals, and because of this chefs and their recipe collections were greatly in demand. Nevertheless, it was during the nineteenth century that formal cookery and cookery books became really popular. Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Farmer in the US, dedicated their lives to collecting, trying out, and writing down recipes to help cooks of their time. By the arrival of the twentieth century, cookery publications are highly popular mostly due to higher levels of literacy, leisure time and having more money. |
