The History of Recipes
It is quite feasible to follow the history of recipes far back into ancient history, certainly as far back into history as the Egyptians, and possibly even further. Interesting though that is, sadly, these early records were just very basic hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing meals.
Progressing into The time of the romans around 25BC a roman called Apicius created a collection of documents detailing recipes enjoyed by wealthy Romans. In his works, he recounts how the meals were split into appetizers, main meal and dessert, known in latin as `Gustatio, Primae Mensae and Secundae Mensae`. This early Roman chef describes how the early Romans made use of many aromatic flavours, including a few you will know for example bay, rue and dill. During the next few hundred years, the rich and powerful families of the West competed to serve the best banquets, and because of this cooks and their recipes were much in demand. However, it was during the 19th century that fine cookery and recipe publications reached a high level of popularity. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Merritt Farmer in the USA, dedicated the best years of their lives to collecting, trying out, and writing down recipes common in their social group. By the advent of the 1900s, cookery books are highly popular due to higher levels of literacy, more spare time and having more disposable income. |
