The History of Recipes
Food historians have proved the existence of recipes back into the far past, certainly as far as the ancient Egyptians, and potentially, even further back. In practice though, in the main part, these old cookbooks were just primitive pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for food preparation.
Fascinatingly, the oldest recipe in existence, according to historians are a few stone 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 anyone who drank it feel wonderful. Progressing into The time of the romans 25BC a man called Apicius created a number of scripts detailing recipes prepared by wealthy roman citizens. In his publication, Apicius describes how the meals of wealthy Romans were separated into hors d`oeuvres, entrees and desserts, a very modern way of dining. This early Roman chef describes how the Roman chefs made use of a wide range of aromatic flavors, including many that are still in use today for example thyme, mint and asafoetida. In the 15th century, knights returning from the crusades brought us a variety of spices and herbs from Arab countries, including spices like parsley, basil and rosemary. The introduction of these new tastes caused an outbreak in books on cookery, the majority of which are kept safe in private libraries. Over the next few centuries, the rich families of the West competed to lay on the most exotic banquets, and as a consequence, the best chefs and their collection of recipes were greatly in demand. Notwithstanding that, it wasn`t until the 1800s that cookery and cookery books became popular. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, dedicated the best years of their lives to assembling, trying out, and recording the recipes of their peers. By the arrival of the twentieth century, cooking publications were highly popular mostly due to more people being able to read, people having increased spare time and having more money. The introduction of television brings us TV cooks and the accompanying recipe books. And that brings us to the present day and the internet revolution, allowing us all to search through massive numbers of recipes just like those on sites such as the one you are reading now. |
