The History of Recipes
Written recipes as a concept can be traced way back into the distant past, certainly as far into history as pharonic Egypt, and possibly even further. Having said that, these, old records were just simple hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing meals.
In an interesting twist, the oldest recipe discovered, according to historians is a series of ancient tablets in ancient Sumerian which recount the making of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making people feel `wonderful`. Much later, in Roman times a man called Apicius assembled a few documents describing recipes cooked by the Romans. In his publication, Apicius tells us how the roman meals were split into starters, main course and dessert, a style of dining still practiced today. Aspicius also tells us how the ancient chefs used a good variety of herbs, including a few that will be familiar to modern cooks such as thyme, mint and parsley. Later on, in the 15th century, the Crusaders brought back many foods and spices from the holy land, such as parsley and basil. These new culinary innovations was responsible for a torrent in recipe publications, many of which still exist in private libraries. The TV revolution brought us cooking programs and the demand for the accompanying recipe books. Which brings us neatly to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, permitting us all to access thousands of recipes such as those found on the site you are now reading. |
