The History of Recipes
We are able to trace the history of `recipes` far back into ancient history, in truth as far back into recorded history as early Egypt, and possibly even further than that. Having said that, in the main part, these old records were just very basic pictorial recipes for meal preparation.
The truth of the matter is, the most ancient recipe discovered, according to historians are some clay tablets in ancient Sumerian which show the baking of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as having made people feel `wonderful`. As we move into Roman times 25BC a roman called Apicius created a collection of documents which described recipes prepared by the Romans. In his publication, Apicius recounts how the meals of wealthy Romans were separated into hors d`oeuvres, main meal and desserts, something that is very familiar to us today. Aspicius also describes how the Roman chefs were skilled in the use of many different aromatic flavors, including a few that will be familiar to modern chefs for example thyme, mint and dill. As we move on, there were two interesting cookery books which appeared in the 14th Century : one book titled `Forme of Cury`, and another entitled `Curye on Inglish`. Don`t be fooled by the titles though, these books have no connection with the indian curry that appears on menues today, but instead accounts of the types of meals on the menues of the rich people of the time. Later, in the fifteenth century, people returning from the crusades brought us many new foods and herbs from the holy lands, such as parsley, basil and rosemary. The introduction of these new foods and spices caused an explosion in recipe books, some of which are kept safe in private cookery archives. By the advent of the 20th century, cookery books are increasing in popularity mostly as a result of better eduction, people having more free time and having more money. |
